Got a:

R33 gtst

HKS 2530

Blitz Dual SBC Boost Controller.

At idle it used to read -47 now reads -24

At max boost, which is 16psi it reads 0.4 which is about 4psi

Factory boost gauge reads the same as before.

So, who can help? >_<

i had a crack in one of the vac hoses that made my blitz dual ebc read funny. but that affected the stock guage too. have you checked your vac hoses?

i know sometimes the vac-hose connector at the back of the ebc gets loose abit and hisses/leaks. you know, that funny connector thing that connects the plastic tubes from the ebc to the t-piece. your running more boosts now? so maybe its come loose abit.

- I am running more boost, had the stock turbo before @ 12psi, now got the 2530 @ 16psi.

- the -24 was in cmHg.

Going to check for leaks.

Btw, vacuum leak isn't dangerous right?

      The I've done a lot of research and feel like I'm becoming a nut and washer expert. The washer in question doesn’t look very conical—it’s almost flat, but one side has a chamfer. The guide's picture shows the convex side (chamfered side) facing the nut, but the text says the chamfer should face the pulley, which is confusing. If I follow the picture, the chamfer faces the nut, but the instructions say the opposite. When I place the washer on a flat surface, one side looks flatter—maybe that's the concave side—so I would expect the chamfer to be on that side. But it isn’t, which adds to the confusion. The term chamfer is also throwing me off. I always thought the concave side should face the pulley, and the convex side (with the chamfer) should face the nut or bolt head. But Nissan’s instructions say the chamfer should face the pulley, which seems backward. I know I’m probably overthinking it, but I want to be sure I’m doing it right. Also, I’ve seen some people replace the nut and stud with a bolt, but I assume that’s not a good idea, since it might not keep proper tension on the tensioner. Lastly, just to be 100% sure: the pressure washer should face the pulley, then the conical washer? That feels strange, since usually the pressure washer goes first, facing the bolt or nut.

      I checked, i dont think it was the indicator stalk. The problem just magically fixed itself though.

      H1 is not the Humvee, but is the most road based version. Lachlan (HankScorpio) on here has a proper Humvee. He imported it a few years back.
