There somthing wrong with my R34 (GTT-no engine modification)... It began long time before I was cruising down the freeway, and then some dude went to change the line, so i just released a bit of my gas pedal then when he moved lane i tried to accelerate again but all of a sudden the engine, TCS off, slip lights came on, which apparently results in my car wont accel like it should do, the sound from my exhaust is somehow roaring and coughing.. and it does vibrate more when u tried to boot the gas pedal... But when I pulled over, and leave it for a minute or two, its completely back to normal, but u can smell like rubber burning from near the rear wheel... Keep getting this kind of problem but not too often, anyway my 5000k service is due in 2 weeks anyway, i thought so ill just wait..

Anyway I brought my car to 5000k service over in down under auto who also imported my car.. ask them bout the problem, but after the service they said nothing's wrong with ur car

Well the problem still came occasionally and will be gone if u leave it for a minute or two, went to the auto tune once and they said u gotta go to a garage who has the computer shit for R34, so it is easier to find, just plug it in and u'll know where did it go wrong...

I havent had a chance to do it though since i dont know which garage has one.. and the problem didnt pop up lately...

But around 5 days ago the problem came again when i actually wait for my order in mcd drivethru without anyhing to do with the gas pedal or clutch and another one came yesterday when i waited my friend with an engine on like exactly happened in mcd drivethru?

So has anyone overcome this problem or have any idea about what it is? Help me guys!!?

Thanks alot for reading it anyway...

i'll tell ya what...

stop driving the car, next place you should take your ride is to a workshop that likes working with Sky's...

if there's no $ just save up dude, i have no idea what's wrong with your car but i have never heard of that happening to anyone's car

don't want it to get worse and worse and then cruising on the freeway in the middle lane your car just starts spinning and you end up in hospital, be careful dude that's my2c

Repost this in Forced Induction section, you'll get your answers quicker.

To me, it sounds like somethings cause the ecu to go limp mode, but find a workshop that is familiar with 34s & can get consult on it... but the problem may be caused by sporadic issues (eg. afm wires coming loose momentarily)

Ring around a few workshops and see if any of them recognize the 34s symptoms.

this is not that uncommon , not common but I have seen it before on a few r34s.

i think it is a problem with one of the sensors , probably the TPS

but as its pretty intermittent it can be hard to diagnose when its not happening , usually theres no stored error so consult doesn't help much when its fine

is it a triptronic ? if it is i would get it checked out because possible tps issues can cause gearbox problems

Definitely something wrong there, I have an auto and it should only flash 'slip' when taking off hard under wet roads, or taking tight corners hard at from 1st -> 2nd under high revs.

Maybe your auto box is about to die. I wouldn't drive it till you find out what's wrong imo.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
