so the specs are as follows

RB25/30det RB30E NA pistons and ACL race bearings

cometic MLS head gasket

R33 25 DET head with VCT delete

stock cams

gt35r .82a/r

500cc injectors(at the start then 700)

Nisstune board

Z32 AFM

R33 S2 coilpacks

Chinese verrry hiii quarity special exhaust manifold the stainless tubular one and a 38mm wastegate

one of those greddy style intake plenums

hybrid cooler

3 inch exhaust no cat and a straight through muffler... and yes I looked inside it to see if its fallen to bits

basically the problems are as follows

when the thing is on the dyno the AFR and power is all over the place but trending lean this is at around 330rwkw boost steady as

so I'm like hmmm more timing and less timing and a bit more fuel and a bit less fuel you know what I'm on about..nothings helping

no misfires but we chuck some new spark plugs in nope not that... thinking its injectors now...not the size I've been told

so I'm like MEH lets make the injectors go static at 4000rpm so she goes revvvvvvvvvvvchokefarttttttttttttttttttbammmmmmmmm 390rwkw so the combo is working just takes a dyno queen tune to get it

so I say whip the injectors... got a set of 700cc bosch ones and a SARD reg lying around chucked them on scaled the maps still the same problem WTF but with more power 350RWKW

now I don't know whats going on so we look at more fundamental things is the cam belt in the right place...yep whats the pressure and pump return flow... steady pressure and never less than 2lt min return to tank...hmm

anyone got any ideas....i think the greddy style Chinese manifold is somehow holding up the fuel in it don't know it's a pretty rough looking item on the outside would think worse inside...

the guy who owns it was happy as a pig in shit when he took it away so not really a problem just I would like to know whats going on because I have a RB30DET in my car and it tuned like a dream with 550cc injectors made 350rwkw and fast as hell in a Cefiro the only difference was mine has a plenum I made from some aluminum pipe a stock head flange and put some webber trumpets inside and a NEO head and the VCT works (VCT is worth it I think) and a haltech

any ideas??? I'm pointing at the shite plenum...anyone had this problem before????

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
