Hi guys.

I was wondering if anyone can confirm something for me. A buddy of mine was saying that the R32 GTS Skyline's have a little solinoid that limits the amount of boost you can run to 14psi. There is a little box located on the firewall (driver's side) with a vacum line and harness clip attached to it. This "apparently" is what limits the boost to only 14psi. Is this true?

If so, can it be disconnected and will everything still work fine?

Thanks everyone.

Cheers :thumbsup:

That box attached to the firewall is connected to the boost gauge on the dash and controls the reading of it. R32's don't have a boost cut. I'm running 1 bar on my car atm and its not experiencing any boost cut

Hey thanks man I appreciate the confirmation. I did'nt think there was as I believe I would have come across something on that by now. I've read tons of threads on this board as well as others and never seen anything mentioning this.

Anyway thanks again. :)

Take care.

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
