just installed my gtst motor in my non turbo r33, i changed the wiring loom to gtst so the installation should be fine.

i put a power fc tuned for fmic, cat back 3" zorst, pod filter. i have the same mods with a full exhaust though.

nehow i took her for the first run, it went perfect then i stopped at these lights further on down the road and it felt like the engine was a bit shakey.

i continued to drive and it felt perfect still, i got home and i was letting it cool down while the car was on since i dont have a turbo timer.

then i rev'd it a bit and it was going "pop pop pop" rev's from 1k to about 2.5k then backs off and starts to pop, while it does that it puffs some smoke out.

i rolled it down my driveway and sat it there with it still on. the engine started shaking a fair bit at this stage it was moving my exhaust...

does anyone know ther possible cause of my problem?

thanks

cbeck your intercooler pipes for leaks. check all hoses are connect correctly. if it means to remove them all and put them back one by one then so be it.

i took the power fc off and replaced with the standard gtst ecu and now it seems to be running fine...

but the car feels a little more shakey then it was whilest being n/a. but its not overboard its just a bit shakey.

maybe its cause im running a highflow turbo, fmic, turbo back exhaust on stock ecu?

have you reset the power fc to stock settings? if you are unsure how, look at pauls power fc faq

    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, I’m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, I’ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmation  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4   idle video from that day just because 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
    • Ok got some old tyres for you guys...my car has been sitting around un-driven for about 6 years now. I had it on the original rims with the shitty compliance tyres it got it with back in 2006, which were manufactured in 2004... Sidewalls eventually rotted and split open, obviously no air in them and the rims were holding the car up. Just swapped them with some 17" Work rims and tyres which are probably 10+ years old too but at least holding air
