Hi,

I have recently turbo converted my RB25DE R34 with all standard R34 parts and have a hesitation fault with it. 

When I am accelerating, the car seems to feel like it's hesitating and sometimes seems sounds like it's hitting the limiter earlier than it should (popping out of the exhaust). 

I have already replaced the plugs for NGK BCPR7ES plugs which I fitted at the time of fitting the turbo and have since replaced the coil packs with brand new genuine Nissan coilpacks. 

The car is running the standard GT-t ECU at the moment (have heard many people say that there's run fine on it until Nistuned) and just has a HKS cat back exhaust, aftermarket front pipe and a HKS induction kit tuning wise. The fuel pump on the car is a standard GT-t fuel pump, but not sure whether it will be running fine without having the fuel pump control module and dropping resistor that the GT-t has? 

 

Any help is much appreciated. ?

 

Thanks

Plugs are too cold for stock, should be Bcpr611 or similar!

also are you sure the new coil packs are “new”

I bought reconditioned Nissan coils and they were rubbish, caused misfiring, engine light and slip light! Stranded me at shops ?  Got refunded! Quick smart!

check afm, timing, and use stock neo ecu!

injectors should be fine if not Gtt ones just for driving off boost/low boost 

how did I go? ?

I'm running a stock NEO non-turbo AFM without any problems. I'm using GTT injectors and stock GTT ECU. At first I kept the NGK BKR5EIX iridium plugs that I already had before the turbo conversion. Not ideal maybe but they worked ok. I've been running the conversion for 3 or 4 years.

Recently I did have a misfire that felt a bit like hitting the rev limiter. I found some Splitfire coil packs on a spare engine I have so fitted those. At the same time I changed to NGK BKR7ESC-11 that one of the tuners here in the UK recommended for my +t and that misfire is gone.

Thanks for the replies. 

The coilpacks I bought from AutoExtreme, so know that these are genuine new Nissan ones. 

The engine timing is spot on, along with the ignition timing which I am running at 15degrees BTDC on the Plus-T. 

The injectors and intake manifold are stock GT-t Neo ones, so am assuming these are fine. 

I am currently running the standard GT-t side mount intercooler, so not too sure if this along with the higher compression will be running higher engine temps. I've got a Blitz return flow FMIC on order at the moment.

    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
