lol no other controllers that I know of...I suppose anythings possible...but the hi stage boost was working ages ago....then it seemed to be spiking after 4500rpm by 2psi....So i thought the controller would fix it, as it eliminates the solenoid altogether, but it hasn't :cool:

I'm a bit concerned as I feel like I have lost power and acceleration since installing this, I'm hopinh it's not a result of wear caused by my fanging it around the past 3 days testing this controller and just generally having some fun. I'm going to put the hose and T piece back in and see if it makes a difference before I worry too much as the car is not blowing any smoke and is not making any weird noises, just doesn't feel as strong - that's even when i ran it on 9psi a few times. I should prolly try blocking those solenoid hoses first too.

Dezz: Just for the sake of it, reset your ECU?

yeah i might try that as well.

will be trying some other things out tomorrow night to see if we can work out whats causing the spike...

as for yours, i dont think 3 days of hard driving would have killed anything, unless it was already very close to dying

Ive actually laid off putting it on myself, i donno much about puttin stuff on, but after lookin at some pics im gonna attempt it tomoz :(

So i take it that you dont have to block the solenoid holes? Just the bottom tube which use to connect to the solenoid?

Oh, and is it safe to do this without an aftermarket boost gauge?

Yeh just boost it till it pings then back it off 2 psi, you guys realise that if you are running a series two, that the ECU will activate the rich-retard program when it senses overboosting. that is why your car feels like it has lost power. time to buy a computer.

Twisting the hose off seems to be a good trick, that usually works.

There's been many posts about how quick he gets back to people. Understand that he is a one man show with a new born and that he hasn't stiffed anyone yet. Be patient, you'll get your tap soon enough just like I did. Hammering this thread or his inbox will get you no-where.

For the record I am one of the most impatient SOB's out there so I know what it's like to wait, this guy has got a lot on his plate though.

Cheers

Be patient.. I've had things take 1.5weeks to arive when sent by regular.

If you want it and don't want to wait pay the extra for express.

Yeah, I paid for express. Thus the impatience.

I'm not arguing he's got a lot on the plate, but even a "yes i got the money" would've been nice.

Hi,

I bought this controller a few months ago now but havent been using it becasue of my coils. Now I have my coils fixed I have installed it and running at 12psi. I was expecting the turbo to spool alot faster but I have noticed no difference. My turbo still hits full boost around 3800revs. I have a R34 turbo from a RB25 running on my RB20. The boost also drops from 12psi to 11psi at around 6700revs. Is this normal and is there a way to get my turbo spooling faster? Also does it matter how long the hose is from the turbo and the wastegate?

Thanks! >_<

don rb20's make max power at 6400rpm,

that may explain the spiking at around 6700rpm.

      R32 clutch master cylinder

      By BASHERnissan · Posted

      Hey team,  The clutch on my newly bought 25 swapped r32 feels average and sticks half way. Went to go order a new clutch master but it does not look like the ones that suit the one that’s in the car…    does anyone know what clutch master is this just by looking ?  (The feed is on the side rather than the bottom like the ones the pop up online)  thanks guys new to the RB scene so any help is appreciated cheers !!

      Synthetic oil versus conventional oil

      Id be more than happy to sign up!!! Where do I send the invoices for my fuel usage? I'm happy to provide the mower, oil, and the labour to abuse the motor, just a little help on fuel would be great...   I had tipped the container of oil out into my big "drip tray" and left the small container upside down to drain the oil out of itself overnight. PIcked the container up today, and it has a layer of what feels like either dirt, or shit tonnes of carbon in the bottom of the container. I'm leaning towards it likely being dust, as I doubt the quality of the Sunli BumbleBee having a decent air filter on it, and sections of my yard produce a dust storm, especially because of the high lift blade!   So, filled her up with some fresh Nulon. Seemed to run fine, but it seems to want to run at really high RPM (higher than normal) even with the governor spring slacked off after fire up to try reduce it. If I back the throttle off it a bit to drop the rpm to where I'd like it to be when mowing light grass, it starts to blow a bit of smoke out the exhaust. Opening the throttle back up clears that out. It's definitely breathing oil, as I put my hand down at the breather hose and it's spitting some oil.   My guess is it having been running at high rpm, oil never changed, and it eating dust has destroyed the rings. You know what that means? Time to send it!!!

      That is what will seal with the bonnet closed. Follow it down while closing the bonnet to see where it ends up with the bonnet closed. The panels don't do anything other than spending money, which this one will do just fine. :p

      Nah just send me a photo or a drawing and I'll tell you which is better.  It's a new SAU service.

      Yes, well, one or the other. On R32 (which is the only thing I can look at personally) it's on the rad support panel. You have neither, and it will need to be on one or the other. I must say that the arrangement of holes perhaps looks more like it lives on the bonnet underside on the R34. The rad support panel doesn't look like the R32 one at all. A quick google shows....
