Hey guys

I recently got into a bit of a bang with my R32 GTR , but the only thing damaged was the front bar... none of the internals got hurt

Now, driving the car to the panel beaters i had NO reponse, i couldnt hit 3k rpm without flooring it, the car was making the most awful noise like it was struggling massively... now, remember none of the internals were damaged at all, even the front mount was fine...

When u push it, it'll backfire, but it just keeps making this Pttt ptttt ptttt ptttt pttt noise and will never hit boost.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY CAR!???!?!?!!?!?!?

I was told it could be the crank angle sensor? and that they move slightly and it totally screws up ur car? Or the CAS connection?

HELP please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a crank angle sensor will not make you not get boost

recheck those things above....

the IC was moved accross.. something had to give to allow it to move ...

on inspection, the intercooler was fine, just pushed in a little and moved to one side, but nothing major? could i not be seeing something?

Broken IC would be my guess too.. like Craved said if it's moved across something would have to bend/loosen for it to move.

The engine will still rev past 3 if one of the pipes comes loose or there is a small hole. Check to make sure your AFM is connected properly and spray some aerostart around all the pipe connections while the engine is running just to be sure.

Also check your Catalytic converter to make sure it might not be blocked. Might just be a coincedence that it happened at the same time as the accident.

As for the CAS...why would it be the CAS when there was hardly even damage to the bumper?

as for the CAS, the panel beater didnt know what he was on about

(btw the one i'm chucking out is a TRUST FMIC) :D

Yeah id say it sounds like an AFM metre problem. My friend has a 32 GTR and his connection was loose and it wouldnt let him rev past about 3000rpm.

Chris

he just said that it was a gash in the intercooler. so it wasn't afm.

Weldable?

obviously you don't think so since you were prepared to tig up damage..

      Is this pressure plate warped? And do I need a new one?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?

      OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.

      RB gearbox options

      Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.

      What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny.

      I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
