Problems With My R33

Hey guys,

Ive got a 1995 r33 GTS-T

Just wondering if anyone has come across a similar broblem as mine....

the car dirves fine for a few minutes, then out of nowhere loses most of its power, the revs drop between 500-1000rpm during idle and it seems like its hunting!

Then 2 minutes later it will be fine again and drive as good as new?!! :cool:

I've been told it could be anything from a faulty injector/fuel pump/spark plug/coil/airflow meter!

I dont want to go changing all these parts as obviously all of them cant be faulty! (i hope)

does anyone have any advice as to what it might most likely be?

sounds like a vaccum leak , during idle if fluctuates thats normally the cause , check all you cooler piping

also how old are your spark plugs? Have you gapped your spark plugs to 1.1mm or if boosted 0.8mm?

yep all the piping is secure and its running standard boost (never been boosted)

i've purchased a S2 airflow meter... as ive been told that is the most probable cause!

I will let you know if it fixes the problem.

thanks

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
