Hey peoples!

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this...

2nd into 3rd while on full boost (mind you im only running 7psi) the car bogs down and then picks up and gets going again...feels as though something is holding me back? Its not wheel spin, Im changing gears smoothly too and not rushing the gear change...

This has happened since fititng FMIC, the front/dump pipe and new clutch (exedy heavy dudty) and just does not feel right, anyone have ideas?

Cheers,

Chris

how long is the piping run for the FMIC? how large is the core. sounds like you have introduced a much larger volume to the intake tract. so it take a bit longer to fill with boost, which give you less response.

agreed :D

just the small turbo not pushing much, when you say changing, is that like 4500rpm then a gear change? or 6000rpm+rpm?

If you get a bit more boost into it (10psi), and PowerFC/S-AFC to play around with timing etc etc.

It will fix that problem of a "hole" that your having.

sounds like your referring to a change gear and then the turbo is spooling but no immediate power, wait a second or three and then it kicks in again. Everyone notices that after they fit their first fmic kit. It eventually goes away cause you get used to it.

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
