hey,

ive got an r32 gtst, only mods are a blitz filter and GAB suspension. it runs real sluggish until about 4000 wen the boost kicks in.

my bro has a r32 gtst as well, same mods pretty much, however his car seems to push more from the start.

anyone know wat the problem could be?

is anyone else experiencing this?

maybe he had a bigger exhaust + more boost?

try giving a few more details?

actually my car has the better exhaust and is also running a little higher boost.

i think it might have something to do with my air flow meter or the levels. the ***n thing conked out today. it just started stalling wen in gear, and wen idling it was going up and down between 1000 and 2000.

the small hose up the back snapped off, the RACV guy ripped the broken end off and pushed wat was left of the hose back on.

it ran well, until about 20 minutes later and it conked out agian. i checked that hose and it was on fine. has anyone else experienced this? how do u fix it? how much will it cost me?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
