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.

    • The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.
    • Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine  
    • Yuh, My new R34 box is sitting on the workshop floor (in its large shipping box, which is a nice thing on its own), along with a front plate to convert to push clutch. There was no way I was interested in rebuilding my existing one. Was only partly interested in the risk of buying a used one. But, if you want a 2nd hander, I can point you to one in/near Melbourne at least. @Komdotkom has one that should be in good enough condition to be usable. I don't think it's in a for sale thread, you'd have to message him. @redzedhas one that definitely needs a rebuild.
    • I used to love going to Amaroo to watch the HQ series go for broke (eventually stopped due to lack of spare parts) and also the Porsche series.  It was so cool to back your car up to nearly the edge of the viewing barrier and party with your friends, having a bbq and alcoholic/non drinks. It was such a family/mates atmosphere
