Hi Guys

I am having some trouble with my r33 on low boost the car is hitting the standard boost but when it comes to highter revs the boost creaps to a 1bar.

and on high boost it runs a little less than a bar but realy doesn't seem to have a much more power than standard boost!

I have a HKS boost controller, I turned off the unit and the car still did the same thing on low boost (crept to a bar). As I thought when the unit is off it will go back to standard boost.

what could be wrong?

Have you removed the standard boost controller/solenoid?

What it does, at standard boost, is hold 5psi till around 5000rpm then goes to 7psi

So if youre using a boost controller with all the factory boost controlling stuff still in place, then it will mimick the above.

You should get a oil catch can if boosting over 10psi, the older the engine the more blowby, eventually making oil get through everything

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
