Update: Mechanic reckons is runnign on 5 maybe 4 cylinders.. he told me to check plugs (i've replaced them), check the fuel return to the furl tank as in might have been blocked and flooding the engine (which I've done runs fine), then he said ignition module (swapped this with my mates made no difference) next up is coil packs, and if not those maybe a blown gasket between the cylinders.. any other suggestions..

Alright I think i've discovered the problem.. I replaced the whole ignition system with that of my mates r33 so I knwo it works fine.. I then proceeded to unplug each coilpack lead one at a time.. as expected the idle changed slightly.. however when I got to the 5th cylinder and unplugged in no change.. im guess this means a problem in cylinder 5..and according to the above problems I'm think maybe a bent valve or valve spring etc.. does that sound possible??

Yes............ Or a crack through the piston ring land.

But unplugging the coil pack on that cylinder still should have made a differance. Maybe the coil pack is faulty or even the loom from the module to the coil pack. Try and swap the loom from your mate's car.

PS: Make sure you have the same series engine (ie: S1 coil packs will not work in S2 engines and vis-versa)

Have you done a compression test yet.

Yea my turbo makes same noise u mean like a winding noise, its could be the bearings and such when i got my car serviced my mechanic which is benno from racepace called up and said that turbo makeing winding noise and could be on its way, he suggested not to do a dyno because it could blow up then and it could not said should get new one befor i do a dyno, as for how long i dont know i geuss it depends how you drive the skyline and if you use it allot.

Definately nothing in cyclinder 5 and we swapped everything between the two cars.. igntion module, loom, coilpack the lot..I pulled the plugs and plug number 5 had a build up of what looked like oil on it (keeping in mind brand new plugs were fitted yesterday) I also noticed when shining a torch through the plug hole a build up of black sludgy gunk on the top of the head (or whatever ya wanna refer to it as) in both cylinder 4 and 5.. the rest were absolutely clean (i could see bare metal)

Update: Looks like a gasket, between cylinder 4 and 5...umm water coming out the exhaust, umm cylinders missing.. and when you rev it coolant comes out the radiator cap rather than runs away from it.. if that makes sense..

It defiantly sounds like the common symptoms of a head gasket. My mate just got himself a subaru rs wagon and he has all the same problems as what your having, exept in his case oil has forced its way down his heater hose and is now filling his floor with oil and coolent lol.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
