ive only just noticed why my car (r33gtr)has pinged a few times. i have a split hose off the end of my actuator and running very high boost.

was pinging quite bad a few times. i didnt know what the go was til i took it to my mechanic.

my tuner rekons it still sounds healthy and im not in trouble. when u drive off boost or half boost to redline it revs perfect still.

Am i in trouble or is it ok still? How would i know

thanks

50% of the time or more when a engine goes pop the the cause of the blow up is something that happened to engine months or even years ago.

be carefull. i would do some checks etc

      They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.

      Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.

      Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
