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?

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      I don't run the spring but it means you need to set your own belt tension.  I put tensioners on both sides too.

      Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.

      Wiring high beams in IC7 for R32 GTR

      By BourneToLive · Posted

      Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know.

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
