Hi All,

New to SAU. Excuse my limited knowledge for future reference.

I recently purchased a N/A r33 S1.5 (s2 management) with intentions to go down the forced induction path.

I purchased a Rb25det s1 engine,loom and ecu. I installed the engine trouble free but had a few electrical bugs, using the s1 management I can not get injector or coil pulse. I've tried multiple CAS with no luck and have narrowed it down to no power to the Ecu.

I then tried using the N/A s2 ecu,loom and plenum with all n/a sensors.

(Of course changing coil packs,tps and afm)

The car started and idled fine but run like shit on boost.

I changed to a S2t ecu,fuel pump and adjustable FPR

The car run what I thought was perfect.

After a small drive I've found it runs VERY rich @ idle and VERY lean on boost >4000rpm roughly

It's like the Ecu is not recognising "boost"

So this is where I am at now:

S1.5 car

S2det Ecu (only 1 relay next to ecu)

S2 N/A loom

S2 N/A afm

S2 N/A plenum and sensors

Det injectiors

Adjustable FPR @ 30psi- I've noticed a lot of fluctuations in pressure- some days 10psi some days 35????

S2 coil packs

S2 Tps and TB

Walbro 225lph

Boost T @10psi

So to me I belive there are no ways the car can sense boost since I do not run a boost solenoid using n/a loom?

The car will get up and go ok but feels to have no torque. It's just all noise.

I come back off the track with a glowing turbo.

The car will idle insanely rich to the point where the plugs fowl after 2 mins of idle @800rpm

The car will run amazing and pull well sometimes but very moody on when.

Also wondering if it's my fuel pressure fluctuating?

Let me know any troubleshooting ideas anyway guys and girls!

Look forward to joining the SAU community.

Max.

I came in here reading the word milkshake expecting you to have blown a headgasket or the oil cooler.

You are correct. There is no "boost sensor". The load sensor is the AFM. It helps to use the correct one for the ECU and engine type.

It sounds as lean as f**k too. That could be because you have the wrong AFM, or it could be because your fuel pump is not up to the task. You should not do this sort of crap without having some basic test gear hooked up. Fuel pressure gauge sounds like a good one.

I meant milkshake as in a bunch of different parts in one car haha,

Ok so there is a difference between a DE and DET afm?

Yes it is lean above 4k, I have a narrowband as a rough reference, I know they are pretty basic but still gives an indication

Yes my fuel pressure gauge jumps over the shop a bit.

So are there any differences to engine operation between the N/A and DET loom?

Thanks for your reply mate :)

Okay you will need the Afm from the same car the ecu came from.

You also need to set base fuel pressure to 45 psi with the FPR unplugged from the vac/boost source

Ignore the narrowband gauge they're worse than useless

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
