Hi guys i have an R34 GTT,

The car was left at my shop for about 6 months untouched, i noticed someone has knocked off the Turbo pressure sensor its mounted on the firewall of the engine bay.

Anyway,.. i started the car up today and drove it around, i noticed that there was alot of black smoke, just wondering if the turbo pressure sensor contributes to the black smoke thats coming out of the exhaust, and not to mention alot of backfires and flames aswell when the throttle is released.

I googled some pics on google to give a rough idea where it is.

Any help would be great, not sure whether its required or is there any way around it?

Cheers :)

Has the vacuum hose supplying the boost sensor been blocked off or is it leaking?

i don't have it blocked off, so i presume its leaking. will have a good look tomorrow and see where everything goes. I need to go look for the Sensor and the little hose with the filter looking thing. Any ideas as where they plugged up to? Im pretty sure they are T pieced into the BOV vacuum line but not 100% sure.

iirc ecu goes into limp/knock maps if its unplugged so you need another one

I will look around and see if i cant get my hands on one of these sensors and try it out.

Cheers buddy!

On another note, that's a very tidy engine bay. Did you remove the wiper fluid tank to fit the pipe between intercooler and intake?

Hi buddy, thats not my engine bay, i just did a google search and found this picture that was quite big and clear. :)

hi, did you find out if the sensor was causing the issue ?

I am having a same problem and car is very rich.

I think it is due to the sensor . People say it is map sensor so I am thinking I could get another map sensor and put it there but no gurantee it will work !

No, needs to be the same resistance or it will throw a code. There are plenty of these sensors at the wreckers, many Nissan's use the same sensor including the early C34 and later M35 Stagea.

Worst case buy a new one, it's still available from Nissan.

      Does that price include the rack time to straighten the frame and body and replacement of parts and paint, as well as the noise and emmisions testing  The last engineering certificate I had done, albeit about 15 years ago, was around $1000 for a few inspections and the certificate

      Geez, engineers fees have definitely gone up. Mine back 2007 cost me all of $300. Mind you, I had to go back to him a few times to get him to write the correct things on the report after he'd inspected it. Things like wrong exhaust size, wrong wheel sizes, etc etc.

      Can we see a scan of the original quote? The problem with engineers (and by this, I mean, all engineers across all engineering industries) is that there are "engineers" and there are "engineers" (you'll have to imagine the two different vocal emphases on those two versions of the same word. Engineering is a mindset - your farm kid who spent his life rebuilding the tractor will likely make a good engineer. The farm kid who spent his life taking photos of butterflies.. perhaps not. But on top of that mindset, the modern engineer has to learn how to write so that there is absolutely no way of being misunderstood. Proposals/budget estimates/quotations are one place where this is absolutely vital. You have to delineate your scope of supply with extremely hard boundaries, and anywhere where there is any possibility of not being able to have such a hard boundary, you need to write language that will cover you from scope creep, cost overruns, the inevitable interference of the client or their "engineer", etc etc. Now, if your clients are the BHPs and the Rio Tintos of the world, and similar, then you get good at this. If you are an automotive engineer, pitching work to the great unwashed masses, your skills in this area might not be well developed, because you're only dealing with knuckle draggers trying to get a big block legal in a Torana. And when I say "might not"....I'd suggest there's a better than even chance that any such skills might be completely absent. So, we might be able to look at your quote and see what the opportunities are for rebuttal.
