All rebuilt...runnin in...finally get a few k's on er and give it a bit.

Doesn't really splutter, more of a hesitation

Feels like it wants to go, but mellow's out.

Goin at 0.6 bar steady..so I don't think its leaking.

I have a nisdat..timings ok, oxygen and af sensors seem fine.

It doesn't seem to retard as though the knock sensors are kicking in.

New battery, newly flowed infectors, new plugs...like I said it doesn't splutter like a lack of fuel or spark.

At a guess its electrical...any thoughts

Mine feels exactly the same.. Basically no notisable problems just no power..

Id get it on the dyno and see how much power shes putting down and check the af's.. PM me if you find the problem .. :spank:

yeah about 600..but I still would have thought as revs pickup power would too.

Another strange thing...my boost controller doesn't work now...but electrically does.

Something is cutting, I'm sure of it..fuel,boost??

Weekend will reveal I hope. Got a new fuel pump happenin and another gtr to swap stuff.

If I'm game, i'll free boost it in 3rd and take my foot off as soon as it goes over 0.7 as it only does 0.6 now.

sounds like boost leak or boost control issue, are all inlet hose fitted correctly??

very easy to miss a hose!! i have recently fitted a brand new engine to gtr and

tight will very little effect on boost achievable.

i also doubt fuel is issue.

it really does sound like leak or control issue, maybe turbo actuators partially open.

also check that you blo off valves are not leaking.

cheers russell

Has the engine been run in properly?

 

I wouldn't be reving upto 6k inless you have done atleast 1,000k's.... Before then you should be reving to 3k.

Lots and lots and lots of theorys on how to run an engine in...

But yeah, Id say how all your little hoses are hooked up, just if stuff was working before, and isnt now, its more than likey going to be something small that would be easy missed. Such as forgetting to put a piston in, thats big stuff, it just wouldnt happen. Putting a little hose on the wrong nipple, thats easy as to miss.

thats a myth

My car, bedded in on the dyno, and been runnning 16psi ever since, 7800rpm limiter no probs

nearly 6000km's and i have no problems. car runs fine, makes the same power as it did from day one.

Didn't you have a turbo problem :cheers:

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
