Hi guys,

I have been having a little bit of an issue of late with my RB26DETT. Basically last week she started misfiring under full throttle and at higher revs and basically felt pretty slugish compared to usual. So i changed the plugs to Bosch plugs gapped at 1.1 and the misfire went away initially and the car felt pretty responsive. However once she warms up again the power dies down and the missing returns. The weird thing is occasionally during the drive it will have a spurt where it just feels fine and accelerates hard.

Coilpacks or perhaps my existing MINES tune could be effected by the current air density?

Ok, I have replaced the plugs again with NGK Platinum plugs, I have cleaned both AFM's with contact cleaner, I have inspected the coil packs and found them to be in good condition/working order, I have cleaned the air filter elements. Fuel filter will be done this evening.

After doing this I've taken it for a drive and found it to be running very smooth, however anything over 0.9 bar of boost results in missing?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
