HI

i've brought one of the TURBOTECH manual boost controller of the forum

i've tryed installing it, but i must be connecting it up wrong because the boost just goes nuts, (don't worry i pulled my foot of the throttle soon as i saw it go past 1 bar)

i've been using a normal bleed valve, i heard this was better the turbotech was better, better Response and spool up etc

Can someone clarify how to connect it up on r33 skyline, I’ve read the other posts about installing it can’t seem to get it

The instructions say connect one end of the boostcontoler to the turbo actuator, then have tee piece off the other end connecting to the turbo and the blow off valve

First of all what is the other line to the turbo, I though there was only one that goes to the turbo actuator

And for the blow off valve can that line just be connected to the intercooler piping???

Any more help would be very appreciated

Cheers

You want it to go between the intercooler return pipe and the actuator, replacing the t-piece that runs up to the stock boost solenoid. You can then remove the solenoid, and plug up the remaining hose.

Let me know if you have any dramas...

      R34 GTT air noise?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Boost leak or exhaust leak. Boost could be from anywhere, including manifold/plenum gaskets. Exhaust is frequently head to manifold gasket or from manifold to turbo gasket. Often caused by missing nuts or broken studs.

      Check for spacers on the front, in case they've been pushed out a little to try to match he rears better.

      I should clarify that the previous owner put the wheels on, so Im not entirely sure what he bought. I was searching the Rota page and found these two as the only matches. It did not occur to me that perhaps they sell these wheels with different offsets. I guess the best way to solve this is to take the wheels off and measure them from the inside to be sure.

      The offset doesn't really have anything to do with dish directly. I mean it kind of does but it also doesn't, it's only tangenial. The offset is purely how much offset (get it) the mounting face is from the CENTER of the width of the rim. I.e, the mounting face would be directly in the middle of the 9.5inches if it was a 18x9.5 ET0 rim. Given it is a +12 rim, the mounting face is 12mm further away from the center (to the outside of the car). Your fronts are +30, so the mounting face is 30mm further away from the center (to the outside of the car). I would wager this doesn't look right, because most skylines generally have the same with guards front to back. So I'd think your fronts look significantly more sunken in than your rears. I'd wager by about 18mm, or so.

      My '96 r33 Skyline has Rota GTR, 18 x 9.5 inch, ET30 on the front and Rota GTR-D, 18 x 9.5 inch, ET12 on the rear. (Put on by previous owner) The 12mm offset is throwing me for a loop. Is it due to the "deep dish" design of the wheel that the offset it so low? Or is it actually that low on the rear normally? If I were buying a set of new wheels, could I put 30mm offsets on the rear and reasonably expect them to fit? I have GTR Brembos and 370Z rotors (355mm/350mm) if it matters. Thank you.
