Hey guys,

i got a weird problem with the boost on my BNR32 i cant really wrap my head around. The car came with a faulty solenoid so i just connected the two lines directly and the pressure rose to about 350/400mmhg mind you without restrictor. However if i just completely pull off the hose that connects IM and wastegates boost rises to about +7mark and then drops off in the high rpms to i guess +5/+6 on the gauge.

What could be the problem? It should make, even with the lines connected, +7/1bar shouldnt it?! Maybe BOVs leaking/ circling? Had the bumper removed before and found no obvious leaks. Any help would be appreciated..

Cheers Max

Connecting the two lines should be the same as just letting the wastegate line be open to atmosphere as long as the lines are hooked up like OEM. If that isn't the case then something is wrong, you may have an unexpected restriction on the lines that go back to the intake hose in front of the rear compressor intake.

Yup, thats what i was thinking... so i connected the WG bleed line back to intake with a new hose, just straight over the engine bay and it didnt change a thing so no restriction... 

 

I would inspect the turbos for shaft play/damage, it's possible something is broken there.

Wouldnt i notice this in oil consumption? There is in fact a bit of oil in the intake but afaik thats pretty normal... per season/ ~2000km i need to fill up like 250ml of oil.

    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
