Since getting my car tuned iv noticed i get a small flat spot immediatly after changin gears for only second, it mostly happens with big revs(7000rpm+) between 2nd and 3rd mostly. Also full boost in 4th gear and sometimes 3rd (18 psi) seems to fluctuate and the boost needle goes crazy from like 16 to 18 and it sounds like im slightly taking my foot off and on the gas making a chuffing flutter noise.

the car is a rb20det 306rwhp with safc management standard afm, but with everything else supporting. driving normal and below 15 psi its great and smooth.

Ideas? experiances?..

Cheers

are you running a bov?

that chuffing/flutter noise is compressor surge, which slows the compressor speed quite alot during gear changes or when you back off on the accelerator, which can cause lag inbetween gear changes.

what boost gauge are you reading off? also what turbo setup are you running?

also that standard airfow meter would of been maxed out ages ago, my bet its at 5volts at 4500-5000rpm, so get a z32 and get it retuned

I know what compressor surge is, its not when i back off the throttle its on throttle up hills, under load.. which it could be compressor surge, just different. So do you think its my afm causing the issues?..i think its compressor surge...as its fine when i give it enough revs.

Its a hiflow rb25 set-up by the way, im reading off the boost gauge i installed, its closest to the inlet i could get. Im running the std bov.

    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32
