R32 Engine Problem

Last night i was driving home and all of the sudden when i put my foot down to rev up 3rd gear the engine started to shudder like it was about to run out of gas (the was half a tank of gas in the car). The problem continued for a little bit, i was able to drive home by keeping the rev's under 3000rpm. I rev'd out 2nd gear a few times on the way back home, and everything seemed fine.

Yesterday i took the atmo bov off and connected the standard plumback setup back on, so not sure whether that has anything to do with it.

Also on the odd occasion, when i'm driving i'll put my foot down on the gas and for a split second theres the slightest of hesitation before the engine starts to rev up. Almost like one plug is fouled up.

Any ideas of where to start?

The rubber hose or metal pipe?

I've only run into this problem now that i've put the standard BOV and

plumbing on the car.

What would happen if the standard BOV was to leaking under boost? (would it cause this problem)

Mate, I had similar problems.....the car would be fine during th drive and on the odd occassion, it would shudder and would not respond to the throttle. I've got a multi display screen in car and I can see when this happens, there is no fuel injection at all! Had it checked out and it appeared that the AFM sensor had fouled up due to oil mist build up from the K&N panel filter....at least that's what I've been told...had that cleaned up and problem seem to be gone.

Yer it would come and go and then some times idle realy low to and sometimes run fine. I also thought it mite have been a miss but when i checked the plugs and coil packs thay all seemed fine. you should change your fuel filter every 60,000 any way

      Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

      I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha.

      Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
