hey skyliners

after a fun and solid 8,000kms of giving my GTR absolute death I have came across my first issue, seems like wiring or a sensor

its intermittent fault some times it runs fine some time I almost cant take off from the lights

it feel like the fuel is being completely cut ( may also be the whole ignition ) most the time it happens when starting off in 1st gear , but the old time is happens crusing at 80 \ 100kms, its only under vacuum it is fine when boosting. I have noticed the black rich stain on rear bumper I used to get has almost gone to me it saying Im running leaner??? its seem to idle fine when im experiencing this issue

I tested air flow meters ( when fault was occurring ) and they tested fine, tried to wiggle plug and wires going to afm to see if was that and still tested good, the single turbo was close to the loom and would of cooked the wiring but the plastic doesn't appear to be melted at all, - I put a turbo beanie on it which has helped a lot from keeping the heat to the wires going to afm etc tried a couple of different cas's and adjusting timing - + 5 degree but no difference , Inspect the 044 I put into the tank and its still solid in there and everything looks fine, I went over all the hose clamps I could see to check for air leaks but all appeared tight as can be, a couple of months ago I set tps to correct setting ( was way out) when to check ecu fault code and learnt the pfc doesn't have screw thingy and a led. I check fuel pressure and its good ( have checked when fault is occurring tho)

im getting my to4z and link ecu that sitting around in nz for my gtr over there and going to get it tuned with a map sensor and get cam gears adjusted in a couple of weeks.

I have been neglecting to drive it lately cause of concern its running lean! to me its an afm or fuel pump issue relay ( can a o44 run ok of standard wiring and relays, hidden vacuum leak, I think its odd how it idles ok and doesn't cut out under boost,

any suggestion would be greatly appreciated

      Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.

      I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.

      Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
