The kit comes with the boost control solenoid and a boost pressure sensor. It comes with 2 cords - 1 from the power fc to the pressure sensor and one from the solenoid to ???? Where does the plug on this go to or do your have to wire it in somewhere??

This is on an R33 gtst.

Cheers

Ive never seen these units and have allways assumed that you can buy the boost kit with the pfc and it can be controlled by the hand controller.

On the other hand if i am wrong and you do have a separate heads up display/boost controlling unit,just like when you buy the boost controller on it's own,allong with the pfc then the in cabin display unit could be what the cable is for.

How long is it?

Try it out and see if the car will controll the boost.Start with it off,test it.Then have a go with it on but with everything on zero,test it then if all's well on in go in small increments ra!ra!ra!.

On the other hand disregard what i have said.:P

Craved - No, the plug does not plug straight in, tried that first - but thanks anyway.

Trust33 - I have brought the proper kit for that model power fc and yes boost is controlled by the handcontroller, but it is the wire from the solenoid that I am trying to work out. The cable is about 100cm, not long enough to go through the firewall unlike the MAP snesor cable whcih plugs into the power fc unit itself.

I am thinking that maybe it is supposed to be rewired and hooked up to the factory solenoid plug....

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).

      So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
