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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

Cheers boys... i feel much better now... cause i know i can just tig weld anything if there are holes.... or if its the clamps i'll just get new silicon hoses :D

THANKS A HEAP BOYS!

(and girls if any replied) :sorcerer: :sorcerer:

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?

cool... cheers man

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

it turned out to be a gash in the cooler.... i cbf getting it welded.... so i'm gonna chuck it out and get another FMIC

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

cheers again boys

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.

How bad is the damage on the trust FMIC your throwing out..?

Weldable?

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

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
