problem solved, i had it t-pieced on the gauge line that had one of those small brass restrictors on it, long story short it just didnt have enough flow to open the ssqv Thanks all for your help

No

Legend!

with my set up i have two choices, i can t-piece the FPR and boost gauge line, which i did or i can t-piece the microtech map sensor line. I think i chose the right one, considering how critical the microtech is to the "mission," anyway... its pretty easy to see when the boost gauge continuously reads 0 instead of reading plus or minus half a brick. I think i would pick up a problem with that line pretty quickly. So that leaves me with another option, drill and tap a new fitting into the manifold. No. so back to it... either there inst enough volume of air getting to the bov or its broked....

hey mate, Microtech are pretty damn good, maybe not for your situation though. I have a lt10s on my rx7 and have put one in a turbo vitara. Dead simple to install and play with. takes about 3-4 hours to wire it up if you do it all properly and neat. takes maybe 2-3 cold starts before you get the AFR's right if the base map was way off (I live in darwin and they always are) R34GTFOUR has said that you cant have idle up on cold... why not? Any way back to facts, Microtech has mapping points every psi positive of zero and for every psi, there is a mapping point per 500rpm. it can do idle up on cold/hot/warm/potatoe whatever really, can do idle up on air con/power steer. can do pulse width modulation for those of you out there that know what a BAC or idle up controller is. can do anti lag for drags or big launches, can do thermos/shift light/nos/water injection/wastegate. Has air temp/water temp correction. has programmable boost/rev cut. has some logging functions and can show max value for most linputs It can do a lot really but if you dont want to get your hands dirty stay with the all mighty PFC. Ring Maztech in melbourne (03) 9416 8411 and ask for Lino last time i checked lt10s was $1010 shipped and the lt12 with the rb plug in harness was around $1200-1300 This was a while ago so don't quote me on prices. Rav if you've got a set buy a microtech

Hi all just wanted some opinions.... Tonight i installed a HKS SSQV in my rx7 and the piece of shit doesn't work. I welded on the flange to the pipe, put the o-ring in the flange, put the bov over it and put in the cir clip. T-Pieced the vacuum line off the FPR. Thought sweet no worries... Took it for a drive and low and behold massive turbo flutter just like before. Thought no worries ive stuffed something, probably vacuum, pulled off the vacuum line to the bov and could feel/hear the suction. I thought It was probably stuck shut form living on my shelf for three months. Pulled it all off, put a screw driver in and pushed the second stage all the way open, then put another screw driver in and pushed the 1st stage open as well. Thought to myself yep i think it was stuck because i herd that cracking noise when a seal hasn't opened in a while. Put it all back together took it for another drive on 6psi, no bov sound all flutter, changed to 14psi same again. Got the shits, picked up my ball and bat and went home that and the sun went down So my questions are: how do i bench test the ssqv? does it need to see vacuum like a normal bov or does it magically just need positive pressure for the reference? how the bloody hell does it work? i cant work out how it could ever overcome the pipe pressure to open? Thanks Acea

hey mate i've done the 33 25 into the 32 and the easiest thing to do is retain the 32 charging loom, thats the one that plugs into your alternator and starter motor and fuse box. i cant see what plugs you mean? but ill have a look tomorrow at whats there on the 25 motor. pretty sure you dont need to swap the pressure sender either, i didnt and it works fine and reads the right amount

as title says

do the s13 and 33rb25 electric speed senders look the same on the outside? not interested in different teeth blah blah blah... cheers Acea

shit hey. i'd say that's what it is, we do have the timing covers off. i hadn't even considered that the cas bolts onto the top timing cover, which is Xmm thick. what are the chances anything important is shagged? i've got a spare cas if that's the only thing that's likely to have been shot. the half-moon lug thingo inside the cas shaft is still intact on the one still in the car. thanks for the replies fellas

hey all can you tell me whats most likely to produce metal shavings from around the cas/cam gear area on the right hand side when the car is running? am i looking at a wrecked bearing or something wrong with cas? car makes a funny bearing knock and whine that is coming from under the cas somewhere, not actually in the motor but (phew) cheers Acea

Thanks fEkuaR helped me out alot

AFR's are sweet thanks to a wb02 kit we have the computer mapped for a z32 maf but are using the r32 one to put the comp into saturation so at full noise and 7k its running about 11.5:1 (as soon as we are happy with the boost controllability its straight on the dyno for a re map and some timing)
