well i have been having the what seems to be like standard r33 gtst issues of late(mine is 1995 r33 gtst standard BOV), i have had it for close to 12 months now !! driving along and the car starts to stutter and like its bunny hopping sort of thing.....we have replaced the fuel pump to a better aftermarket one, replaced the turbo/manifold gasket etc... have taken the EBC out and put back to stock boost, an electronic diagnosis has been done with nothing being found.... we had taken it to a guy that did a dyno diagnosis and he said the coils needed attention ,so he fixed that, then eventually said the spring on the wastegate was stuck open or something so he said he fixed that..... \

now honestly !! the car is in WORSE shape than it was when we gave it to him..we could drive it there and you wouldnt notice anything until you hit about 10 pound say.. but now it is all felt even getting to about 4000 rpm just about undrivable i feel !!

PLEASE can anybody tell who has had this issue, where to take my ride to someone who has FIXED the problem, isnt gonna charge an arm and a leg(ie: reputable)

i NEED to get this done.. i have spent WAYYYYY to much $$ on it already, and needs to be done, its becoming a nightmare that is stretching all savings to the point where we're starting to sell things we own to pay for these car related things amongst other expenses

thanks for the help

the only time i had stuttering was when i had a busted intercool pipe rubber. OR fouled plugs and igniter.

do a search on how to check ECU codes (with in the forums) should be heaps and that will tell you.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
