When driving my skyline (R32 RB20DET Manual), as soon as i reached

the 2100rpm mark on acceleration, it sort of feels like its holding back but it jerks

forward like it doesn't know what it wants to do. When i put my foot down to

accelerate its ok, once past 2100rpm, not a problem.

are you still running the standard fuel pump? if so sounds like it is on its way out. from what i can read i beleve u have a bit of fuel surge as the fuel pump can no longer pump fuel fast enough, giving u that hesitation.

ive done plugs, last owner changed coil packs and now has the current 1s taped up and mine does the hesitating thing..... ive had it for 2 years, still does it, maybe the fuel pump..... but if it was on its way out, should of gone by now

I've now got a GTR pump in mine and that hasn't fixed the problem.

This came up a few times , so do a search on what it could be.

I think AFM , Injectors followed by OXY Sensors was the discussion

on those topics.

sounds like an AFM problem! car sort of bunny hops like its got no fuel then goes again... clean your AFM with carby cleaner. if that dont work try the AFM soldering there a DIYS here some were. or buy another 1. i just brought a used 1 and fixed my problem.

hope this helps

Its a R32 Skyline, RB20DET.

I did clean my AFM with carby cleaner and did the re-solder on it.

I think i might clean it out with the carby clearner again.

I'm running coilpacks, havn't got leads.

Coil pack normally has troubles at high revs.Put injector cleaner into the fuel tank,

see if that might fix it.Changing the afm to find out it did not fix the problem would hurt your pocket.

Any one got a working AFM to lend to see if thats the problem?

Where abouts are you?

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
