hey guys i am having problems with my R32.

i have just recently changed my a/c belt because it was all chewed up on the outer side of the pulley. now my new belt is starting to wear aswell in the same spot right on the edge. rips about 2mm off the edge off the belt all the way around.

as far as i can tell the pulleys look pretty alligned by eye sight so i dont know what is the prob. is this a general problem or just bad luck.

all help appreciated.

Check right around the complete circumference of each pulley that the belt runs on.

From the sounds of it it might be rubbing on a possibly damaged pulley.

Failing that, also check to make sure their isn't any stones bedded into the grooves on the belt, possible pushing the belt off the ridges on the pullies and rubbing.

new from nissan is buckets..

I bought a 2nd hand one which seems to be in decent condition for $50.. Not sure on the cost of a reco..

Its not the easiest thing to get to, so a workshop will probably charge a couple of hours labour to remove and refit.

Depends on the problem.

If it was just a leaking seal or faulty clutch it would be worth repairing, however if the valves inside are jammed, stuffed, clogged you will probally find a new unit is the only way.

A new AC compressor is fairly big $ too.

Might even be worth finding a cheap s/hand one from a halfcut someone doesn't want. That way if its buggered as well, you haven't lost much, however if it works, you have saved probally hundreds of $

hmmm... well its in the workshop at the moment so i will have to see i asked thme to see if they could find out what was wrong and if it would be better to get a second hand or reco, but im pretty sure its seized bearing caus eof the way it snapped the last belt so i might start looking

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
