went and looked at a s13 ca18det for daily lapper, and noticed during the car revving through gears the car revs out for about 2 grand, not really going anywere, then when getting into higher revs, it grabs and pulls away. is this tell tale signs of a buggered clutch?

any help would be awesome

cheers guys

got it in one mate, dont go near it. buyin a car with a screwed clutch is the worst thing you could do, because you dont know why it is slippin in the first place. it could be oil from the rear main, oil from the crack in the bell housing or just straight up good old fashioned abuse. Wont know until you pull it out. Changin a clutch in those cars is a piece of piss though.

mine went more the other way, grabbed ok in the lower gears but when in the taller gears and trying to overtake people, it would just slip. was a extreme clutch, chewed out the flywheel and pressure plate but clutch plate ok!

I think I have the same problem as Pal - but to me it tends to happen when i hit higher boost/rpm in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Is this still the Clutch-o giving way? Or something along the lines of the flywheel???

PLEASE HELP!!!??!!!

I have only recently had a power upgrade, and when I'm driving normally its fine, but since i have a laggyish turbo, when it hits full boost the rpm starts to skyrocket to redline but no more power gets put to the ground... Its very annoying.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
