Well I have looked using the Search button but cant seem to find what im looking for.

I have Just installed a new turbo onto my car but it seemed to do this on the old turbo.

I am boosting 1Bar and I could drive hard and then all of a Sudden it will just stop and it hurts your head when it does :D

another thing is when im boosting sometimes it seems to struggle, A friend of mine said when he was following me it had some sort of whiteish smoke comming out of the back when it was doing it.

Also where is the oil sencer placed as my gauge is playing up.

Put it back on standard boost and it won't do that.

Its the way the standard ecu is mapped. So that when the ecu measures more air flow then standard you go onto a higher load point that is mapped with lots of fuel and no ignitition timing.

Only real way around it is to go buy a PowerFC if you want more then standard boost.

The oil pressure sender is on the oil-water cooler behind the oil filter on the engine block. It has a yellow plug on it generally.

this man is right on the money.

the oil gauge playing up is common problem in the r32's.. I still never found out if it was the sender or the gauge itself, but don't freak if it says you have zero oil pressure.

Still gives me the $H!ts though!

as for the boost, 1 bar is roughly 14.5 psi. The computer wont like it, the intercooler probably wont, and neither will the engine. 12 psi should be a more appropriate figure.

and as stated above, an ecu upgrade should be a priority.

I also suggest a front/dump, high flow cat, and an intercooler.

Well I guess I will have to get a Power FC then

and intercooler isnt a biggy yet. Big loads of power isnt what im after anyway, i just want to to run right.

Well everything seems to be fine at 14.5PSI

The engine is more then able to take that.

I guess I need to save up hard to get that power FC and see how she goes then

dude! I'd be getting a FMIC before anything.... The standard intercooler is definately not able to cope with 14.5psi!

Get a FMIC, but not a huge 600x300x75 one... Get like a second hand GTR one or something.

Will work out perfect.

hope this helps:

ChinaCopy Cooler 300x600x76 = $250

Piping = $600

Nismo FuelPump = $300-$400

Nismo Injectors 450cc = $600-$700

Nismo FRP = $160

PFC = $1000 + $400 to $450 for tuning or Hyperdrive will retune your stock ecu with a lumpy rom for around $800

maybe a clutch too $800-$900

ohh and how are you controlling boost?

ohh yes and your getting fuel-cut from ur ecu as everyone has said :P

question for you do you know what ur hybird turbo is rated at? as i would be interested to know if ur pushing around the 230-250rwhp without a fmic and if its pinging

Well I have fixed some of my Probs my Bov was too loose and now she seems to be heaps better, just every now and then I get some fuel cut but she lets loose again and fine. But when I back off she still is over fueling I guess thats where a tune will come in handy

The Turbo is rated at 500+HP and 25PSI+

I ant pushing those limits I have no reason too.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
