Installed the new engine into the car on saturday and it runs fine. Cars driving and seems to be working good, except.......

When you put your foot down the car boosts way to high, it hit 1.8bar when I put my foot down so have only done it once way to much boost......it drives fine if you dont put your foot down hard and its still got the boost restricter in it so it should only be hitting 0.7.......Any idea what would cause this?

Fane suggestes one of the actuators on the turbos?

Make sure the boost controller is connected..  could be a simple thing like that..

I dont have a boost controller it just runs stock boost through ecu atm. Pretty sure its actuator, am going to work on it this weekend, out come turbs and pipeing again.......

Pretty sure you can see if the actuators are working on the turbs without taking them apart.. you sure the stock boost controller is hooked up properly, I only suggest it as having no solonoid working will cause stupidly high boost pressures.. if not my bad and good luck pulling it apart again.. :cheers:

Cheers

cant believe you got all the way to 1.8

on a new engine?

How about backing off when it passes 1 bar next time, or even better when it just gets over stock boost

This doesnt help me solve my problem......

We didnt know it was broken, just put the foot down, doesnt take much time to hit that kinda boost, i watched it climb to rnd 0.5 bar i wasnt driving dad put his foot down then I told him to stop.

If you must know we didnt know what to expect or to do to fix it really which is why i've posted here. Now we know what to look for wont happen again.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
