hey guy, i just did a major service on my r33 and all was running just wonderful. i have had her tuned since putting on the new turbo (HKSgtrs). along with this i did the plugs to. i put in ngk BKR5ES-11. now i have been driving the car around for a week or so since being tuned and having the new plugs a nd turbo on and itr was tarting perfect, like almost immediatly...

but now i have to cranck her over for about 10-20 secs and put my foot down on the throttle. once she is strated she runs a little rough and then once it warms a little then it all calms down.

any ideas why this may have happened....???

this happned before when i first had my powerfc tuned and the tuner put new plugs in....

im thinking this may be plug related...???

i use bkr7e

never ever heard of them spark plugs...

if u have a turbo timer and u let it idle for 5 mins or so with the combination of wrong spark plug, could be fouling your plugs thus creating all them symptoms...

Next time ur at home and u try start the car n its doing that whole 10-20 sec thing, take one spark plug out and see if its fouled (covered in black dust looking stuff)

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
