Wilch.. cheers for the heads up

why did no-one mention this earlier :D..

Was it mainly doing it when I was going full throttle, I think it's the fact that the car is running really rich.. was a/f of about 10.5 when I got it dynoed..

I mentioned it on the CB after you overtook me.

I wasn't entirely sure what your nick was, and I kinda forgot about it by the time I put a nick to a car.

edit: were you in the 350Z scathing.. pretty sure when I was overtaking you it was prob in 3rd at about 6000 rpm.. so yeah.. wouldn't surprise me..

we were doing some great speeds through the hills with those bikes around..

Lol.. no worries guys.. thanks for the feedback..

Went for a spin before - doesn't look like it's on low throttle..

For the moment I won't worry.. looks like I could have been the only one doing it though. ;)

350z was a guy from my work

Just out of curiosity, how much does a full respray cost...  I'm talking the whole thing (incl engine bay)

at least 5-6 grand for a "factory finish" paintjob. about 10-12 grand for mirror finish/something like (or even better than?) what high end mercs/beemers have ;)

scathing - what car were you driving.. sorry mate - just trying to find out..

ahhaha that's slack doodz.. but amusing..

so what happened - did you get a ticket..

he said to me and ed I think it was that "i've got a book full of red stickers in my car and I don't mind handing them out.. if you want I can start defecting and your cars will be going home on tow trucks, but I don't think you guys want that.."..

oh well.. did he follow us to Avoca?

I wound down the boost for the trip home.. hmm.. brown smoke.. that's not the best..

Might have to see how it runs when I get home, it's damn hard to see things like that when your driving thanks for letting me know..

it stalled when I came off the freeway.. restarted - blew a heap of shit than seemed to clear up.. wasn't blowing anything out of the ordinary when i was sitting in the car park @ thornleigh when we finished up..

hopefully just the richness, but you never know.. didn't seem to be having issues making boost - so I think the turbo is still ok..

It only seemed to happen when you went full throttle. What boost are ya running?

It's currently running about 8psi I do believe.. I had it wound up to about 10/11 earlier in the day however it was hesitating quite badly which I think was probably rich and retard, as soon as I put it back down a bit it was happy to rev nicely all the way up..

anyone else got any ideas on what it could be.. maybe it's time to check the voltage on the O2 sensor and maybe look at SAFCII

Don't worry too much about it Links. All R33's do it when you run 10psi. The stock ECU is way too overprotective. It will do it on lower boost settings as well on cold nights.

Put a GTT or front mount intercooler (justjap have some bargins in the Business for sale forums) and just ditch the stock ECU for a powerFC and you will get rid of all those hesitation/overboost/r&r problems and you can run 10psi safely full time.

Thanks Sewid - i'll take a look at them.. currently have to buy a couple of household things before the car gets any new items.. might just have to take it easy on the boost..

i'm gonna take out the O2 sensor and give it a good ol' clean and shake to see if it's still ok - it was working last time I had a consult cable in it..

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
