hey guys i was wondering if any one can solve this...

My cars been misfiring abit and it got to the stage where when i gave it up... it wouldn't rev over 5g it just bounces back and sounded like something was holding it back, and also sounded gross... i changed the spark plugs and coilpacks, and its still doing it.

It also misfires and backfires around 2g when im in a high gear at low revs... then when i was testing it last night showing a mechanic mate of mine it still wouldn't go over 4-5g it just shat itself and wouldn't let me rev high....

Is this my timing from the computer? does it need a tune up or is there something else im not aware of.

cheers

and another thing, does anyone one know is the r33 rb25 uses the same water pump as the rb25 in a r32?

Hey mate, I had similar missfires going on with my gtr aswell. Basically on a cold morning at times it wouldnt let me rev over 2.5g, I put in new coil packs and plugs and it seemed like it got better but then was doing it again after about a week.

Ended up putting it in and getting a new ECU and a dyno tune. Problem solved

I cant say whether it was just needing a tune or it had something to do with the ECU but once they were done its now running perfect.

also check that the wires pluging in to your afm are in tight and theres no water around there. i washed my motor down and i bumped the plug and some water got in there and i had exactly the same problem. i hope that helps.

I have had this problem befor as well and I had two problems on different occations. Fist time I have blown a pipe half off on the intake. The other time I had shorted A wire out near the battery. Both times the car juat ran really rich.

On another note i have my car back on the road after a couple of years of sitting in the shed WHOO BLOODY HOO!!

i changed the fuel filter today.. didnt help my situation at all.

When my cars cold it doesnt even rev over 2800 - 3000. it just jerks around... feels like a L plater driving, revs just bounce back... but when its hot it drives fine just backfires a wee bit around 2000 and then once i hit 5000 it does the jerking rev bouncing shit again.

AFM? Timing? Fuel reg/pressure reg?

checked for vac leaks?

checked the afm/and its connection?

tried resetting the ecu?

checked the plugs/spark.

got injection pulse? use a noid light to find this out.

check the bov, but more importantly the recirc hose.

all the clamps done up tight?

im no mechanic tho.

im sure chapmans would be able to 'fix' the issue for a small fee :happy::)

Yeah I will never get rid of it, love the car too much.

Hey I am a bit out of the loop. Who is someone good to work on my car, I need a tune. Last time I went to anyone it was sub-zero on the goldy... That was a while ago...

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
