boost controller & fuel system code

hi boys pulled code for my max pu11 g20et and got a boost controller code and fuel circut code my ???? is when i pinch the return fuel line rpm increases is this correct or is that a bad fuel regulator as i dont have a pressure gauge to test with and what symptoms would the boost controller have on the motor at the moment when i accelerate the car i slow then the power just comes on like a train its like something was stuck and then came lose boom power its not like fuel starvation but it is like that before the unsticking thing happens and at higher speed 145km's i went up a long hill and it seem to lose alot of power like it was out of fuel but its the on off power thing im trying to sort a clogged fuel filter will have a constant drain on power and if i fit a manuel boost what happens to the electric boost box on the fire wall

Does anyone have a clue what this guy is talking about????
It would be nice if he let us know if he's talking about a Nissan, what year, model, engine, Etc. He could be talking about a top fuel dragster, or the thread could be a scam???? Earl

When you learn how to spell, and put a sentence together, you may respond!

he grabbing an extra letter from the chassis which is U11, unless its a modified chassis, and hes leaving the "V" off the VG20ET which is the 2.0 v6 turbo motor available any where but the U.S. it seems like.

make sence now e-crap?

i am not sure about this piticualr engine, granted its the same as a 3.0 with a smaller bore but i dont know how they came from the factory with a turbo, i dont know how they set it up, if the set it up like a turbo 300Z then i would ask a 300Z guy but odds are they didnt because they were funky like that.

but for general, pinching the fuel return line and RPM goes up to me makes no sence but theyre may be a leak in the system. smell any gas?

as for the boost controller, it sounds like its confused, like it doesent know when to make boost and when not too...but as i said before this is an engine alot of us are not familiar with

I helped him out regarding this on IM. He has an aussie version of the car which runs a VG20ET. The rest of you guys need to back off.

Any luck with the things I suggested you check mango.

Niku: I think the pincing of the fuel line was sort of a test to see if it might be fuel pressure related. You are right though, the setup is very similar to a VG30ET in the 300zx, just smaller. Boost controller is just to regulate the amount of boost the car makes. If it leaks the car could either not make enough boost, or make too much boost.

you have to upload them to some sort of public server and then copy the link into here using the button with the yellow background and triangles in it when you post, or you could

Hi Fellas, mainly talking to AUS guys but hello us fellas also

Im 3 days away from getting a 1985 U11 Badged a V6Turbo Maxima Bluebird and badged a RX above front wheels instead of legara any ideas on differences???

I took it for a test drive today and must admit the turbo lags heaps, maybe a smaller turbo would help, Not sure there is not much info on the net. I will post photos once I get it

Also included in the deal is a Car Manuel CD and Parts Catalog CD.
If anyone is interested in either of these let me know

the only manual i could get was a haynes but all i can say is if you havent bought this car dont. they are so hard to get parts or info on that you have to learn every thing your self becuase you could not afford to pay a mechanic. good luck with it i would say save your money and buy a more popular model that this model

Well Ive spent my cash on an 85 Model :P

Im a mechanic and panel beater so I guess that helps alot also
I am very happy with the car at the moment i picked it up for 4000$ with new steering rack and powersteering pump. 186,000km and Ive been reading that checking and changing the belts is a must do so i will be tackling this this weekend, I already bought the belt was not a hard at all....

ok well all i can say is that there is some parts that you can get and there a some you can not ie water houseing parts nissan didnt have in stock any where in the world and if they did they where too dear but so far this is what i have found that swaps with our car is magna engine mounts ' commerdoor disc brake rebuield kits for rear discyour timeing belt you should get at atuo barn but you will have to take it in and if you have problems with your maf or ecu or anthing like that petro-ject will rebuild at a good price ie nissan wanted 976$ for maf. petro -ject =308$ other nissan prices are as follows so if you find any of these cheaper tell me please .128$ for dizzy cap 28$ for rotor button and around 435$ for fuel regulator tempsense in one unit but they dont have any anywhere.thermostat houseing45$ and one other thing is you might want to d/l the codes for ecu faults off the net becuase you have a turbo and the manuel dose not have codes for faultswith the turbo model if you want you can email me direct mango222au@yahoo.com just so i do get your message good luck hope yours is better than mine
