I might of had a similar problem to you a few months back. anyways heres the story

Just did GTR Cruise 2 and coming home fanging it with the other gtr's (Obvioulsy to the speed limit). On the highway i shifted down to 3rd and boosted it, it felt like the car had dick all power and made it sound like it was struggling for air. Initially I thought the Bov's were seized, hence blowing air out on boost. anyway i "baby'ed" my car home. After a few hours stopping at my girls house, i drove it home, nothing was wrong then, so i let it go without another care in the world.

A few weeks later i was boosting it hard in 2nd, to the h-way speed limit (hahaha), and poooooof!! car gets farked.

anyways to save the rest of the story, my pipe to the INTAKE of the cooler had popped off. seriously.

So at the end i think the loss in power was due to the failure of the worm clamp to the INTAKE side of the intercooler. I bought a new one and never had a problem again. So i think on the GTR Cruise is was loose and allowing air to bypass the cooler and hence loose power.

You shouldnt need a pipe diagram for your car, its pretty straight forward once you take off the front bar.

good luck, pm me if you still have the sh*ts.
