Hi All,

Just picked up my R33 few days ago & i love it, i've wanted one for ages.

Unfortunately, I think i've already broken it:(

I heard about the 2 stage boost & thought i would make it 2nd stage(7psi) all the way & ground the boost solenoid.

I'm pretty handy & have been into electronics & mechanics for years (i'm 42), so last night i thought i would do the mod.

Well I read the entire thread on that before attempting it, & then did it as specified.

(cut& ground the black wire from the solenoid , not touching the white)

It seemed fairly idiot proof...

When I went to test it on my way to work this morning it would not rev over 2500rpm, just kept coughing until i dropped the revs below 2500, like the fuel limiter was activating.

I freaked out (i only just got the car), & put it back to standard& re attached the cut black wire, but it still wont rev over 2500rpm..

Have I broken something? Can I fix this? I'm worried I broke my new toy..

So far I have reset the ECU as specified (disconnect batt & pump brakes & leave for a while)

I hot wired the solenoid to see if it works (it does)

& I tried running the car with the solenoid grounded & ungrounded full time

Still only 2500 rpm..

Right now I'm leaving the batt disconnected for 24hrs to see it helps the issue.

Please HELP!!!

Oh, and vrey nice to meet you all:)

Welcome.

Now that's out of the way, I'd try the forced induction threads.

Will probably have your answer.

And I highly recommend the SEARCH button.

Multiple threads on the same problem gets very annoying.

But if you can't find it with search, post a new thread.

Oh, try being a little vague, should help het some answers.

Ps, we want pics of your car.

Hope you find the answers you're lookin for.
