Hey guys,

i got a weird problem with the boost on my BNR32 i cant really wrap my head around. The car came with a faulty solenoid so i just connected the two lines directly and the pressure rose to about 350/400mmhg mind you without restrictor. However if i just completely pull off the hose that connects IM and wastegates boost rises to about +7mark and then drops off in the high rpms to i guess +5/+6 on the gauge.

What could be the problem? It should make, even with the lines connected, +7/1bar shouldnt it?! Maybe BOVs leaking/ circling? Had the bumper removed before and found no obvious leaks. Any help would be appreciated..

Cheers Max

Connecting the two lines should be the same as just letting the wastegate line be open to atmosphere as long as the lines are hooked up like OEM. If that isn't the case then something is wrong, you may have an unexpected restriction on the lines that go back to the intake hose in front of the rear compressor intake.

Yup, thats what i was thinking... so i connected the WG bleed line back to intake with a new hose, just straight over the engine bay and it didnt change a thing so no restriction... 

 

I would inspect the turbos for shaft play/damage, it's possible something is broken there.

Wouldnt i notice this in oil consumption? There is in fact a bit of oil in the intake but afaik thats pretty normal... per season/ ~2000km i need to fill up like 250ml of oil.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
