Hi all!

Im pretty new to the page. Buy i have come into a bit of a dilemma with my 02 m35 stagea and I'm hoping you guys can point me in the right direction.. sorry for the big parrlagraph lol

 

Now the other day i started experiencing when i put my fooy down not necessarily full through but if i boost to full bar its fine but after that its almost in a limp mode and doesn't wsnt to go full boost it loses power. The car sounds fine the spool sounds somewhat normal (just not going past full bar, almost like it limits itself) 

Im trying to explain it the best i can to give you guys the clearest picture.

When I shut the car off abd turb it on again its fine untill i hit close full or hit full boost at times its struggles to get there almost like a fuel cut/surge or like its missing. I don't get jolted into the winscreen or anythingbut its just there enough to notice it. Full lack of power almost like your  foot is 75% down on the peddle boost should be at about the same and climbing engine and exhaust sounds as it should but boost spool sort if stops mid way and power the same. Any ideas guys?

I had my AFM sebsor done  about 2 months ago so surly can't be that and I wouldn't expect it to be that with these symptoms. 

Car has an upgraded intercooler BOV and a car delete. Other then that its stock..

I have read somewhere that again it could be a number if things.. AFM, turbo seal or gasket leak, could be the turbo solinoid reading wrong, could be crank angle sensor or plain and simply cooler pipes or other boost lines being frail or have a split somewhere. 

If anyone has any ideas please let me know as most places where i live are typical mechanics and charge an arm n a leg to do checks and to get parts and theybarr hard ti trust..

Feel free to ask me an questions or if i can be any more specific to help resolve this would be really appreciated..

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
