just keep a pair of baby socks in the car, fits perfectly over the gear knob and either stops it from getting hot in first place if you remember to put it on when parking, or protects your hand after the fact if you forget.

Hmmm i wonder what people would think if they walked past my car and saw my knob covered by a baby sock lol.

Very good idea but i think changing knob would be better as i never did like the one i got.

So I unhooked my wastegate actuator hose before work, went for a drive around to warm up (then a bit longer lol)

Anyway, hit around 10-12psi a few times (before backing off), but laggy, and can still hear a balloon squeak type noise.

Dump pipe on incorrectly?

Stock manifold (untouched when I replaced the turbo)

It's a split dump/front pipe, but not one of the shitty JJR ones, it's got a huge long split for the wastegate gasses. I also checked when I had it disconnected that the wastegate flapper doesn't catch on the interior of the dump (like on the JJR ones)... but that may have changed when I put it all back together..... I'm thinking maybe the gasket could be sitting shitty or something?

The wastegate is completely shut at idle.

so refresh my memory

you are getting no boost when everything is hooked up, but when you unhook the feed to the actuator you can get boost?

Probably a dumb dumb question but one I've never known the answer to

Does the diameter or length of vacuum hose make a difference? Specifically in this case intercooler piping nipple -> actuator?

Yeah I try and keep them as short as needed so that's good.... how about thicker/thinner? Any advantage?

Too many knobs in that. Not my idea of a fun night out.

What turob is it? didn't you buy a highflow? It may have a balance issue....

Damnit, Nistune only posted this morning, won't get it till Monday now :(.

Still get to play with the software

Correct... Although I can still hear a squealing leak under boost

gasket or turbo is my guess.

sadface :(

This is for you.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
