hi guys,

have a problem i am hoping someone can help me with.

the car will stutter ie. revs will stop building just for an instant on full throttle over about 5500rpm all the way to redline. feels like something is momentarily pulling the car back then releasing then pulling back again and again. the problem seems to be worse the colder the surrounding temperatures are for example at night. on a hot day the car will actually rev fine all the way to redline.

the problem isnt AFM, have alredy tried changing them over. car has been rebuilt and run in just recently. it also has new spark plugs and all that jazz. rebuild uses mostly stock items except for a slight overbore requiring larger pistons (larry perkins racing series). also computer has been reset twice now.

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks

forgot to add the car has had a diagnostic done and nothing came up.

incorrect spark plug gap was my first guess too. i dont know what they are gapped to as a workshop did this. i thought they might be too wide but the guys there assured me that wasnt the case.

keep those ideas comin

thanks

last night i got as far as swapping igniter packs found one of the plugs was very loose however 2day the stutter is back.

when it stutters there is a loud pop from the exhaust. would coil packs produce this? also i thought that if the coil packs were playin up it would affect the car when driving normally not just when at high revs?

anyway if sum1 could clear that up 4 me that would be great

thanks again

The pop is most likely backfiring (ignition of the unburnt fuel in exhaust pipe) from ignition failure in one or more cylinders.

My guess is also on coil packs not providing enough voltage (resistance across the plug gap is greatest under peak load). Try borrowing a good coil for someone and substituting one at a time.

Could also be a cracked insulator on a spark plug or cracked plugs on the coil pack harness. Also check that the harness ground lug is clean, connected properly and grounded tightly.

hi guys,

it doesnt seem to be my coil packs. swapped them with a freinds ran his in mine and mine in his gtr and both cars ran fine.

a new problem is developing now which i guess is caused by this miss or ignition failure. when idleing the car will suddenly drop revs and sound like it is under heavy labour. when it does this there is heaps of smoke coming from the exhaust which i am gussing is unburnt fuel.

hardest thing is the car wont play up all the time so it is very hard to get my mechanic to look at it.

again any help would be great

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
