Hmm.

My car seems to want to fry its' back tyres all the time! not that I mind of course :D

Strange quirks.. the passenger door locks when the drivers window gets to the bottom or top of its' travel, pisses the mrs off no end.

It also likes to blow hot air on my feet all the time and have to put it on recirc. whenever I start the car.

when using the electric window function to go all the way up / down without having to hold the button, once the window reaches it's destination it decides it would like to lock the doors... mostly

Also if i have the air con on for more than 10 minutes straight, it refuses to turn off until i switch the car off completely.

i think they are supposed to lock - mine do it too...

isnt it a safety feature that was used..?

my drivers window goes down when it feels like it.

its embarassing when you are singing along to a song and your window just lowers by itself!

HAhHaHaHA thats well funny... must suck to drive that one around in winter!! its like no0o0o0o ... !!!

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
