Hi i have a r34 and for some reason it goes into somthing like a limp mode where its only firing on 3 or 4 cylinders , Ive just replaced oxy sensor and plugs and 2 coil pack have been repalced ive cleaned the air flow meter aswell . Could it still be the coil packs ? I so run out of ideas . Because Its happening twice a day on the way to work and then on the way home. I used to be able to restart the car 4 times and it would be ok but now that doesnt help. The only other thing that happens is my slip light comes on and trac control light and the engine light and abs aswell. I went to the auto elec and he pluged his computer in and came up with a error 21 ? dont know what that means . Can somone please help.

im having same problem with mine too. diagnosing it this friday. its either coil packs or foul/worn spark plug. the same problem used to happen to my previous car it had a cracked cylinder head and it was fouling the spark plugs every 1000 kms they had to be changed. its definetely not a cylinder head iv had my cylinders tested, fuel pump, afm everything. its pretty much come down to coils/spark plugs. will let you know what the problem is this friday.

      Did you use an electronic speedo drive? Does you speedometer read all the way to 180km?

      Hahahahah, look, your not wrong 馃槀馃槀 and thank you brother 馃檹馃徏 jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! 馃槄 every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts. Im shooketh, go easy on me hahahaha or don't 馃馃徏馃槉

      If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.

      I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.
