Hey guys, recently got my head rebuilt and headgasket replaced on my 32 gtr. Since the rebuild the car has been set to stock timing to run in before a new tune, noticing i got lots of compressor surge. Mostly between 2-3k rpm sometimes above. Reset the car to it's previous tune (prior to head rebuild) to see if anychange but nothing. I cant see anything out of place and the car is running n1 turbos and stock bov's, can anyone shed any light for me or point me in the right direction on how to fix this problem?

Darth vader huffing would be the most appropriate word for it, coming on boost the bovs open and shut constantly until above 3k then hold and boosts correctly, took the car to a tuner and they identified it as compressor surge during the test drive and they werent even able to give me an answer on how it's corrected so it's a little concerning

OK.

Darth Vader huffing is a common GTR problem called turbo shuffle. It is most pronounced on larger twin units (GTRS/-10s) but evident on even small upgrades like the N1s and HKS 2510s. I have personal experience with shuffle using 2510s and it was very amusing.

I have also known of a car with -10s to eliminate shuffle through the tune, but a retune at a different shop brought it right back.

So seeing as you have reset the tune it is obvious to me that you are simply experiencing shuffle which your old tune had cancelled out. A quick search will bring up HEAPS of results.

Get reading and good luck!

Sounding like shuffle, no?

-edit: beaten.

Don't worry, I am even surprised I was the first. By the time I was bothered to open the thread I thought it would have been resolved ages ago.

    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
    • BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...
