Re: Nistune messing up over 3k rpm

OK maybe I should start there. Thanks for the quick reply. Only thing is that it wouldn't completely account for running rich past 3k in fifth cause I'm not not trying to hit boost (I.e. just cruising)

Nistune messing up over 3k rpm

So i had my car professionally tuned with nistune by a very reputable guy in my area, however for some reason after about 1 season it began to act weird. For instance, when i hit 3k rpm in 5th gear my afr is at like 10, and it stays there until i come back under 3k rpm. Does that mean the ECU is jum...

Re: Turbo Spitting Oil

yeah i was worried it may have been coming from my engine but i ran it without the exhaust and it was fine. I lit the exhaust on fire, hahaha had ppl walking by my house thinking i was going nuts. But it ended up working.... No more smoke

Thanks for the all the replies guys

Re: Turbo Spitting Oil

So I got it rebuilt, but now there's still a **** load of smoke coming out of the exhaust cause of the oil deposited in there. I took off the exhaust but that oil doesn't come out with water or degreaser. Any ideas on how to remove the oil?

Turbo Spitting Oil

So I had my car stored for the winter and thought for the first time i'd be able to pull it out without haven't to put any work into it. I WAS WRONG. When i parked my car everything was running decent, then all of a sudden when i started it this spring, my turbo began to spit out oil at idle. I remo...

O2 sensor issue

I just wanted to know if a obd1 o2 sensor can be used in my s14 which has been converted from obd1 to obd2? I currently have the obd1 sensor hooked up with the signal wire from the engine harness soldered to the o2,but I am not getting any readings. Any input?

Arite thanks man, I guess I'll just install it, if anything I'll just pull off the transmission again. The clutch requires a flat flywheel but the guy who resurfaced my previous one made it more stepped then it originally was. That'spprobably why it was slipping. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Clutch Good or No Good?

I just took of my tranny and realized my flywheel was slightly warped, It seems like it left an uneven surface on the clutch (i.e. gets thinner towards the outside). The clutch doesn't even have 10k on it, so I would like to reuse it if possible. Do you guys think it will be okay to use. Here are so...

its an internal wastegate so it isnt hooked up to the manifold, its just hooked up to the turbo its self. the flap just stays open when pressure is applied so no boost. From my understanding its just like driving my car NA.

Snapped wastegate bracket

Hey guys, i was at a red light and decided to give my s14 a little rip when i noticed that i was only making 4 psi of boost (supposed to be 12). Anyway's i popped the hood and noticed that the internal wastegate bracket had snapped in half, and the c clip was gone. Hence why i was making so little b...

So starting from the basics, i have a ka-t ecu converted from obd 2 to obd1. My o2 sensor has never worked for some odd reason. My car is tuned with nistune. So basically my afr's aint holding steady, and my car runs very rich, usually at 10-11 at idle and 10 when i switch gears and it gradually mak...

yea im hoping it didnt mess up the fins on it. i dont know if it's in the manifold because sometimes after i free it by hand and turn the car on the turbo continues to spin. Its possible that something could be getting stuck on the exhaust side aswell.

its tuned with nistune. I got it tuned by a shop. He told me to bring it in so he could make it run less rich. This is because I converted to obd1 in my kouki but i used the obd2 o2sensor so he said until i dont get the obd1 sensor hooked up he will let it run a little richer then normal. So im just...
