How much boost/power can you go with 98ULP? I know my RB25 was on the limit at 280kw's, tuner said any more and the valves will start burning, but on E85 it was , "so where you wanna stop here?" , laughs all around it was ridiculous what numbers where being pumped out...

I had 445rwkw at 19psi on 98.

Have u had a car with a restricted turbine that caused boost to drop as peters did?

No issues with mine holding boost with a similar size turbine wheel.

And yours has got far more power than mine. That is how I expected my graph to look like, the psi is set and once it reaches the limit it remains there.

It is just strange that it drops off before it reaches the 6000rpm where I had the previous problem, but I do not know enough to make a statement, just an observation. This does not mean I am right :/

Also it is not as rich as it was every other time I had a tune , maybe it was a motor safety thing?

Going off the Dyno readings the PSI is dropping off at 150kph, tested it and at 150kph it is 4500rpm in 5th gear. That seems a bit early for it to start to taper off, well to me but I know very little about the workings of turbos/cars etc ??? Oh, and women :yes:

Like you said earlier. You are going round in circles.

If CRD are not answering you then we can only presume that it is due to them not wanting to instead of them not knowing.

And lastly, just take it to someone else if you're not happy. Or are you happy? If you are then just leave the thing.

Maybe because you said you didn't care about peak power just response they didn't bother making it hold boost.

I do find it hard to believe that they trialled various camshafts for some reason, but never made it hold boost...

I am not going in circles with what I said, I tested it today to see exactly what RPM the boost started to drop off , now I know and now you know :)

Dont want to know, dont read the shit :)

Take car to Jez

End thread

That is not the end, have to see what happens after it comes back from Jez, I will post the results.

You can all have a laugh at my whinging about the results if it is not better than it was and I will go away with my tail between my legs, THEN , end of thread :yes: :yes:

Similar turbine wheel size, my point being it should hold boost unless they tuned the boost controller to do that or compressor is out of flow which it shouldnt be

Not if there is that much back pressure that it cracks the gate open. But anyway we will see I suppose. Based on everything that has been said it points to the turbo IMHO. But who knows. But most of the time these issue seem to get solved with a bigger turbo. We all have theories, if I am wrong then I have learned something. Edited by XGTRX

Maybe Ben, got one of the SAU blokes coming up tomorrow and want him to take it for a run and see what he thinks..

I go for a drive most days and love it, went this morning to check out the rpm to kph as it is not displayed and I did not notice the PSI drop off up to 6000rpm, just want to know why, got a few different opinions but it seems my push for answers annoys some blokes :)

Oh, and the only thing I have ever put shit on my X builder was for, NON COMMUNICATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they are like that to the end!!!!!!!!!! hate it :(

You know what I do if I do not like a thread, I do not read it, if no one is interested it dies without being shut down, simple :/

Ive read most of this thead, but i wouldnt be suprised they made the boost drop off to stop your missfiring issues

Looking forward to seeing further development with a different tuner. Lack of communication is quite frustrating

Get a life Mick,haha

I just cannot help think the same and could be 100% wrong, but the psi dropping from 4500rpm ,fark it only just spooled up, think it would hit 6500rpm before taking a nose dive ?

When I get the next tune maybe I will not even get the same result, it might be 350 - 360awkw, I do not care as long as the top end lose goes down to where I can play :)

Top setting was 22psi before this tune. But running on 22psi it went tits up at around 6000rpm.

Now it went to 24psi @ 4500rpm before it tapered off to 18.5 @ 7000 ( I think the 381.7 kw was around 7k , the private road I used would not let me go to 7k in 5th gear, just squeezed in 4500rpm, too short) Not sure if it is actually set at 24psi, just going off what I can see on the dyno chart before it dropped off.

There is no harm in having a guess at what is going on here and in about a month there might be some answers, could be better, or worse ??????

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
