MR SLY Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 hey just a quick question.. i've got a r33 GtsT.. when i'm driving it pulls boost it won't go, it feels like it's holding back... on the boost guage it saying i'm on boost.. but yeah it doesn't go it's like it's lagging.. BUT when i turn my car off then on again, it work's normal it pulls boost then goes good... it only happens sometimes though.. any ideas??? i've checked all hte piping and vaccum it's all good... but yeah does anyone have this sort of problems?? i've got a blitz computer.... yeah it's weird when it happens, at the lights i turn the car off hten turn it back on then it drives normally i pulled all the plugs in the engine and cleaned it.. even took out the coil packs and cleaned them too... update.. theres' oil in the last cylinder... and spark plug was BLACK AS!! got new ones and cleaned the oil away... works BEAUTIFUL!! 5 days later... it happened again.. so i checked if there was oil in the cylinder again.. there's none so i cleaned the ends of the spark plugs. now it works good again..!! what the!! again when it did happen, i turn my car off then on again.. it worked normal again.. can't figure it out Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/97411-boost-problems-ive-got-boost-but-wont-go/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulr33 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 maybe try with stock ecu? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/97411-boost-problems-ive-got-boost-but-wont-go/#findComment-1766971 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mafia Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 oil in the last cylinder? Its got bad blow by. If I were you, get it compression tested, and stop boosting in the mean time before you really wreck it. Sounds like you are going to need a rebuild....

Col-GTSX Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Check your base timing... Your aftermarket ecu may also be retarding the timing where it should be advancing... Put a stock ecu in it for a week and see what happens...

rory_kieran Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I have the same problem. I have a R32 GTS-t and just put a new air intake and boost controller to put it to 12 pund but still feels when it boosts not much quicker and it has alot more potential. Any idea's from anyone what this could be. The car is completely stock other than this.

heller44 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 why am i going through oil so quickly.. there's no leak that i can see <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oil isn't going to magically disappear. It can only be leaked out or lost in the cylinder. Get a compression and leakdown test done, as others have said. But it looks like rebuild time. rory_kiernan : stock r32 is 10psi? and you've gone to 12psi with not much else done...

seriesII Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hey Mr Sly, i have the same problem as you at the moment, by boost laggs, but only every now and then, and im only running stock 7psi as well, with a stock ecu at the moment, any one have any idea on this one? r33 series 2 1996, it lags some times on winding up and other times around 5psi, and you can feel the pull then it kicks in, then it pulls then kicks in, its annoying the hell outa me as well, anyone think this a spark plug issue? (i havent checked them yet as been busy, but its the first thing im going to check tomorrow) just got the car back and this happened Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/97411-boost-problems-ive-got-boost-but-wont-go/#findComment-1835010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LO_R33 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 If in doubt you should really get a compression/leak down test as everyone else has said... you wont have to guess no more you will just have straight out answers.

WLD747 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I dont know but could a blown turbo cause the power restriction & usage of oil?
