Hi I just resently purchased my first skyline and i was just wondering if it is normal for them to backfire when u rev it out in each gear then change up to the next gear. My car has 3inch cat back exhaust with large straight thru muffler on the rear. It only really backfires when i run it up to round 6+ on the tacho. I am thinking that it maybe running a little rich on fuel and under heavy acceration it must let a bit of fuel get out to the muffler.

Any info would be great.

Yeah my 32 does it a lot at the moment especially decelerating on boost and stabbing the throttle

VERY funny when people are behind my car when I do it

Scares the s**t out of them

Annnnyway I believe its because of excess fuel and burning it on deceleration maybe a dyno tune will fix it if it bothers you

    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
    • Just to get this straight if you turn the splined shaft to the outside, it turns freely but the chain does not move? What happens when you move the chain, does the splined shaft turn? Surely the shaft is snapped, or the chain is seized and it took the teeth off whatever great is behind the steel bracket
    • Good on you for mentioning, that helps as far as other things you might need to check
