hey guys, have an r33 gts-t, had it for a few months now, it has a front mount, pod filter, and full exhaust, but it seems to be lacking in power, it launches when it first comes on boost, but after about 3000rpm it doesnt seem to be pulling like it should be, it and then sometimes kicks again up around 6000rpm, maybe im just bein paranoid but im sure its something, iv been reading around abit and read a post where the guy had, what seemed like a similar problem, some people mentioned it could be to do with the coils, or the cat, does this sound like that?

thanks guys

Hi.

I realise you are new and all. But a suggestion of good use is the search button.

This type of problem is common, and VERY well covered in a great amount of threads.

Just search for "rich and retard" "coils" "midrange" and you'll find heaps of information

Cheers

i had searched for coils, but i still wasnt sure if that was it, thanks for the other suggestions, i wasnt sure what else to look for.

The boost is stock, same with the fuel system. hopefully il find my answers in the searchs, thankyou.

hey mate, try getting rid of the 2 stage boost that they have as stock. it will be running 5psi up to 4800rpm then jumps up to 7 or 8psi after that. look on the DIY section of sau on how to do it. give that a go and see if that helps.

So if I may… in my own defence… that is why I gave the key search words to use to lend a hand to more information so that one may find lots more information that would be posted in this thread :rofl:

Take it to a mechanic knowledgeable with Skylines. Unless you're mechanically inclined, he will be able to sort out the issue quicker than any number of posts on here and you randomly poking around could achieve. m2c.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
