hi there

Not sure if anyone has had the same problem but my at high rev range seems start popping and cracking.

apparenlty from behind theres alot of black smoke and crackles coming out.

just seems to keep on popping when i floor anywhere above 5000rpm at first gear.

can anyone help?

Edited by thinh
nah not just first. happens all the way through to 3rd gear never been able to get higher.

and whats t he usual ignition checks?

i had something simular and it was just worn out/lower grade sparkplugs or to bigger gap if not coilpacks worth a check cheapest first

oh no worries. i got a set of new spark plugs at home but just never got around to changing them.

il try put them in tonight.

Sounds like detonation to me. Could be time for a new fuel pump and a tune up.

Could also be the spark blowing out at high boost that that will usally happen when boost comes on as aposed to at high revs.

Change and gap the plugs. If it still happend then its detonation which will kill a motor prety quick.

oh okay thanks alot for all your help but now i cant even test out my new spark plugs

cause my car wont even run =/

becuase after i came back from the mountins near home ( thank god) my car started losing

power. everthing slowly started dieing, and then everything shutdown.

i can jump start the car and let it run off the jumper battery but the moment i

take the leads off the car just cuts out.

PROBLEM AFTER PRBLEM =[

    • Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.
    • I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.
    • Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)
    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
