hi all

purchased my r33 gtst around 6mths ago, coupla mths later fitted 3" mandrel bent exhaust wit hiflow cat and cannon. ever since engine has been running very rich in fuel consumption :huh: and performance in pick up is "choking" so to speak whilst under heavier accelaration :) . i have spoken to a few people about this, and done the following, i have put standard BOV back on. replaced oxygen sensor in exhaust as this was not working to start!!! and had a fairly good check on vaccuum lines for air leaks etc. please help as fuel is not getting any cheaper :( ???????????????

when you say choking do you mean miss fire? Check your coil packs

thought maybe that but when i purchased the vehicle there was a coil pack gone and had to take it back to get that done.

know what that feels like under acceleration and this just doesn't seem quiet as bad as the "miss" or "choke" that provided???

thanks for reply anything else?

Super Air Flow Controller, can lean up your engine a bit to stop it running rich. Your standard ECU might not like the extra boost and go into Rich And Retard mode.

i'm not running any extra boost don't have any boost control parts just all standard been reading other threads about similar issues and some have said plugs. put new twin spark plugs in when originally purchased at time or coilpack replacement.

i have also been told there might be a slight air leak in one of the vaccuum lines???? cause more fuel to be pumped , more air???

unneccessarily!!

      I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
