hey guys,

Just Re-installed my fmic and put a brand new front and dump pipe on my 32 gts-t.

Problem is the tempreture light is flashing but temp is fine(i think its the temp anyway) and also just after 3000 rpm it wont rev any more it just dies.. and idle is fine but sits a bit high now 950-1000rpm

what the hell is going on??

cheers

The exact same thing happened when I put the wrong eeprom in the stock ecu...

Idles fine but rich, it'll let you limp it around but as soon as you hit about 3k rpm it'll fuel cut. I could hear the turbo spooling but it went nowhere. You may have rooted a sensor, or your ecu.

i havent touched the ecu? do i have to reset the ecu? could it be the o2 sensor that plugs into the dump itself. what sensor sets off that flashing light in the dash?

thanks

im pretty sure it cant be knocking, so that funny looking light that flashes(think its next to the door light or handbrake) is releated to the cat sensor?

what about the engine cutting at around 3000rpm could a leak between the turbo and dump cause this?

ok guys problem is still there.

*when i unplugged the air flow meter and went for a drive it behaved exackly as it did with it plugged in!

*and the flashing light(above link) after cutting the cat sensor light is still on!

*i also took the kick panel off the passenger side (didn't remove from brackets) and noticed there was a red light that seemed to be continiuosly on?

*intercooler piping is sealed and tight as.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.

      A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Lithium · Posted

      Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.

      I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...

      So whats the deal with the porous block VR30DDTT

      By Duncan · Posted

      Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
