Hks 2530's running 20 psi.

Can't get my car to boost cleanly throughout the gears , and i have no idea why.

When i run 16 psi or 1 bar, no problems. As soon as I flick my eboost street to my other setting (20psi) it does this...

Does anyone have any ideas or solutions? Workshop is telling me that i need new actuators... All pipes are tight, no leaks whatsoever.

Runs like a champ on 16psi, but cant get it to run properly or boost properly on 20 psi. Keeps giving me that flick back

Any feedback or advice greatly appreciated. Cheers

Hey peter.

Nah still got it capped at 7k and the occasional 7.5. I really want a midrange street car. Hopefully my next retune with e85 should see that. Lol he can drive my car, but then i'll drive his :P

Yes, I was using hks intake pipes. My turbo's didn't like them. It would cause them to stall/shuffle. Went back to standard got a retune. Never had another issue again.

the irony that the HKS turbos didn't like the HKS intake pipes...

and all for HKS price too :P

However, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't something tune related that wasn't solved upon the retune?

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
