hello every1 basically for the last 2/3 weeks the car has bein running good then bad then good then bad, basically its auto series 2 r33 gst-t mods inculde single stage boost controller/pod filter/front mount intercooler and apexi safc. standard ecu/turbo ect ect basically the problem is either the car is holding gears too long or there is a boost spike, i had the car running 12psi and the car was just like staying at 3000 rpm and staying there for 2-4 seconds and then i would puch the acc down more and it would just all of a sudden jump to 5000rpm, then i would pop the hood and turn it clockwise 1 turn and then it would go well for a few days then same thing would happen/i have just turned it another 1 full trun down again and it stopped and then did it a lil bit then went ok?? (o yeah i just replaced the air flow meter and pod coz i thought that might be the problem but it must be something else any ideas???what is the problem???then when i have the overdrive on its just the worst it just sits on 2500rpm and takes foreva to get ova the 3000rpm mark!!!i then take the overdrive off and it works ok then 10mins later same problem (oil pressurse round 4 and a 1/4 and engine warm! am i just getting a boost spike? or what is it? should i just turn the boost of alll together? or what should i do?is it the gear box? thankz plz help if u have heard or eva had the same probs :ufo:

ok, its abit hard to work out your problem but i will give it ok

1st. With Boost spike you can not tell it is happening unless u have an aftermarket boost gauge (there for u can see what ur boost is set at and see if it is jumping around)

With an auto skyline, im pretty sure if u just hit the gas the gearbox will kick back a gear and the revs will increase

I cant understand why when people have a problem that they dont do the easiest check first

try the diagnostic if it tells you what your problem is great but even if it doesnt, it knocks out all the posibilities like sensor faults andif it is your auto gear box this should tell you

try this first before spending money for someone else to do it

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
