Took my auto r33 gtst for a wash tonight (all hail car lovers), nd then was just drivin around to let it dry... anyway when it dried a little i started to drive it a bit harder nd it was kindah struggling comming on load, like could feel the seat shudder as it was building speed (like it wanted to and kept trying but just couldnt get the smooth acceleration) and could hear this BPOO BPOO commin from the muffler every now and then not a load explosion just not normal sound :no:

whats the go?? any ideas?

On second thoughts i dont think it was the air filter... its the standard air box nd its pretty far back under the hood, water couldntve reached it i only washed the body. It was driving a lil better today :\ but still, when i feel it struggle i just ease off the gas till it catches up with itself if that makes sense lol... iunno.. ill get it tuned when i upgrade the intercooler nd boost...

if you washed in the engine bay its just water, should clear up shortly. Most like water mucking around with a sensor or water in the coilpacks causing it to ark out.

My bro did this to his skiz, went a bit "crazy" with car lovers hi-pressure hose in the engine bay and it was running on like 4-5 cylinder for a day or two haha, dumbass. Anyhoo once he took it for a decent drive and let everything dry it went back to normal as all is sweet.

    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 😎 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
    • 'sif the error will be that low!
    • I do know where there is a fair few 😉
