  1. sounds timing related then get that checked and go from there
  2. so your revs are dropping when your accelerating?
  3. i didnt notice u said the revs drop aswell, so when u boot it your boost guage creeps down? and so do your revs?
  4. was it fitted correctley and primed before use?
  5. so her surgeon
  6. or turbo? my first hybrid did that when it was fucked, but used to make a high pitched whine if u held the foot down. check for shaft play and the condition of the turbo blades
  7. i didnt wasnt to put a full size 1 on there because it looked shit! but i think this 1 might be just a bit too small lol by the way i know theres a little bit of the other reg left on ther, I've cleaned that off now lol and i know the fmic isnt lined up right, its coming off this weekend im half way through rebuilding the front end after the little bump
  8. haha epic! we should just leave a thread open and continue it until we get bored of it
  9. she drives a
  10. was shaving her
  11. meanwhile in glasgow
  12. so its only when your at a standstill? are u sure the fan is coming on? who did the oil change? i had a wanker of a mechanic do some little bits n bobs to my car when i first got it and he disconnected a green plug below the dizzy cap (cant remember what its called lol) and that made mines do the same thing, the fan wouldnt come on at all. i had to leave the aircon on to cool the car when idling
  13. he would be better to tell the insurance company that insures the skyline about the silvia they could maybe sort out some kind of deal. or insure it with some1 else and tell them about the skyline bieng insured with some1 else, most companies will give u some form of discount if u have X amount of no claims bonus on another car
  14. i was driving his car vpower, it doesnt feel like a stock car. i had a look around the map sensor too for a fcd, the boost guage has been plumbed in normally but the vacum hose from the t piece didnt go through the firewall at the top, it went to the bootom and in that way and the guage is mounted at the passenger side of the dash. its really baffled me thats why im asking lol
  15. hes away now i dont really know him. its just doing my head in. it definetley didnt feel like a standard car mate it was pretty quick. at first i thought it might have been a jam actuator but there is no fcd. and it spools nicley to 1bar its not creeping
  16. felt quicker than my glanza did at .8 on the standard turbo. its quick EDIT- fuel cut is around .85 shane
  17. sold a lad local to me a bov, he doesent use these forums or anything. he was having problems with it and brought it up for me to have a look and we sorted it, cut a long story short i had a wee shot of his car, its hitting 1bar under 3k rpm and pulls well right up to the redline, but while fitting the bov i remembered he had a standard mani and cat. pulled over and had a look its completley stock except a s/s system,and nology ht leads and a greddy boost guage. no fueling mods, no boost controller or bleed valves, no adjustable actuator, nothing? was annoying me at this point and i had the glove box out to have a looka t the ecu. guess what.... STOCK no fcd either? crossed my mind that the guage might be faulty but it did pull very well and certainley didnt feel stock! so WTF?
  18. in the carwash
  19. the only way to find out is by taking it to a rolling road mate. dont run 1 bar witht he standard manifold!!!!!
  20. yeah it has a nasty restrictor int he 3rd runner.upgrade your brakes, get a new mani, decat, get it boosting at 1bar. what has it been mapped on? piggyback?
  21. egg and farted
  22. stole this idea from another forum please dont spam the thread simple rules, each person posts 3 words and 3 words only. the next person follows on from where the last person finished off, once we have 50 posts we can compile the thread and read the "story" it can be as random and silly as you want but please try and follow the previous post as best u can ill start today the queen
  23. im gettin a loud ticking noise when im starting up, the mani has a crack but its not coming from there. after inspecting today it seems to be the alternator belt, sprayh a wee bit wd40 on the alternator belt and see if the noise goes away for a minute, if it does u need to tighten/replace it
  24. thats sweet man
