Hi

My R34 GTR had an engine change after a conrod bearing damage, the engine fitted was a standard R34 GTR vspec engine with approximately the same mileage of the car.

The GTR is fitted with some GT-SS turbos, nismo 600cc injectors, nismo fuel pump, nismo fuel regulator, hks exhaust and decat pipe, apexi power fc with commander and boost control kit.

With the new engine fitted, the gtr was tested and driven for one week,

the engine is running fine, oil pressure is good, they just had to adjust the idle that was a little too high, adjust the power fc map, and all the knock, wideband and other measures are ok.

Now after driving the car for one day, after one hour driving on the highway,

it started to do some short misfires, similar to a boost fuel cut, sometimes around 4000rpm and not under full load.

When doing this the engine check light was sometimes coming on for less than one second, without flashing at all.

Anyone has some suggestions on what it could be?

It was also raining, I don't know if this could have caused some water to get in the AFM's with the standard airbox, or if it could be something else, injectors, spark plugs, coil packs or just something wrong in the power fc settings but it shouldn't have driven perfectly for some time.

      It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!

      Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months

      That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.

      I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
