hi,

got a 93 r33 manual turbo, when its idling it hunts slightly, but sometimes it just holds at certian revs, eg it will stay at 2rpm then drop really slowly. its also crap on petrol! gets about 270-320 on a full tank chnging at 2,500rpms. its always been running rich but now worse. ive changed the o2 sensor early this year. also it feels like there is no boost. i can hear an "air leak?" but the turbo gauge shows boost :S. also around the exhasut heaps of carbon. car also cuts out when i rev it, uselss to rev past 3000. any help would be really appreciated. i live on the gold coast, so if u know a descetn cheap mech please let me know

cheers

do as much as u can first bro

check all plugs gap to .8

tighten all intercooler clamps up

check and wiggle that every connector is on properly

then whilst engine running spray degreaser or soap over all vacuum lines/hoses and see if idle changes or bubbles

if does see were does might have split/leaking vac lines

good luck bro

    • Yeah, you are right. It seems easier and more reasonable to boost the engine. And as you said the blocks are very similar but the cylinder bores are different.
    • Sound logic, but in actuality way more illegal than just having the wrong pipe. Normally, doing something like that would be forgery. Meaning you may have certain documentation for vehicle parts, but the actual parts are different ones and you just assign them the numbers and badging from the documents. But nevermind that. Nonetheless, I AM curious if this pipe was ever made by any official manufacturer this way, because I honestly am not familiar with this pipe layout and shape. As I will be putting on the HKS Silent Hi Power once my exhaust gaskets arrive, as long as it sounds right I will just roll with this front pipe. I can always order the actual Mines part if I run into legal issues. It would be an unnecessary expense as there is lots of other problems I have on this car as of now.
    • So, weld a plate with the Mines logo laser cut into it, onto it. Instant Mines pipes, whether they were or weren't originally.
    • I don't know if the blocks are "the same". They will be very very similar. Obviously, either the bore or the stroke is going to be bigger on the 20. If the bore is bigger, then the 18 head is unlikely to fit properly. If the bore is the same, then you can almost certainly fit the CA18 head, but there migth be a few fun things you have to do to make water galleries (or other things) line up properly. Or... it could just be real easy. Is it worth the effort? Almost certainly not. You can make nearly as much power on a 2 valv ehead as you can on a 4 valve. There's not any "magic" in a 4 valve head.
    • Yes, me too!!!!  I need to find a something that has all the abbreviations for what these cars have LOL
