hey, my r33 gts (auto at the moment) is being weird. when i start it up when its cold and drive it pretty much straight away its REALLY slow in 1st gear, then when it changed to 2nd its normal. its like not enuff power is getting to the wheels or something. it doesnt rev up as quick as it wud if it was warmed up either. im guessing maybe fuel filter is jst really blocked. or fuel pumps out the window. it also has a weird idle problem, where it bounces quite violently between 700-1000 rpm when its cold, or when i go for a drive, then turn it off, then back on. it only does it for a few seconds so i dont think its a vaccum leak. any help would be great! thanks!

yer i usually do, just the odd time im in a hurry lol. when i warm it up its fine, no problems.

im thinking for the idle problem, maybe fuel filter? im changing that next week anyway. maybe fuel pump or filter for the other problem too? like not enough fuel getting to the engine quick enuff. or even the oils too heavy for the cold? i dont know. lol never heard of anything like this.

with breather filters. they connect straight on to the rocker cover ay? rb25de.

cheers guys

once you have started your car, let it warm for no longer than a minute. then drive it slowly untill the temp gauge is normal. Not a good idea to be booting/red lining it when cold!

;) Why would you say no longer than a min??

    • Get something that can spray a bit, something like I'd use is a pressure pack for weed sprayer. I use one with degreaser. Spray it on (make sure you're fully covered up, you don't want that shit on you, especially face/eyes). Alternatively, a paint brush will help here as you can brush and work at the stuff quite aggressively.   Be aware, citric acid can eat metal away and will cause it to rust more later. So make sure you neutralise it when done, and give the fresh metal some protection. That hanger, I'd honestly bin and get something like the Frenchy's drop in replacement. The tank, again, I'd look for something else to replace it with. Remember, as metal turns to rust, it means there's less metal there now. So some patches of your fuel tank are likely to be quite thin.   Personally, Id focus on the front end of things, IE, how did the injectors get clogged if they're meant to be after a fuel filter. Then, once the front is sorted, I'd rig something up, even like a small surge tank, and make sure the engine is now running and all behaving. Then I'd replace the fuel tank and fuel hanger and pump. Also, I'd already be preparing to ditch your fuel filter...  
    • That's looking great! Are you planning to do things like all hidden wiring with it, or you're planning to have it look more like we'd expect an RB in an engine bay to look like?
    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
