ive been around skylines for years...but this one was a little weird

r33 rb25det

SOUNDS like its running on 5 cylinders on idle

SOUNDS like its running on 5 cylinders when you go to take off and let the clutch out

at about 1500rpm BAM dissapears!!! and runs PEFECTLY

can run as much boost as you want ...rev to any limit or do anything you want

its like under 1000rpm to 1500rpm it sounds like its running on 5???

o2 sensor?

See what you've done, God! I warned you this would happen when you invented the O2 sensor - now the O2 sensor is the cause of every single problem in the modern EFI engine!

heyhey! - have you bothered to analyse which - if any - cylinder is misbehaving at low rpms? Have you checked that the VVT solenoid is working?

it used to run fine...but just sort of happened

i thought if it were plugs or coils...wouldnt it be doing it all the time?

BLIND ELK---- havnt found which cylinder...as it only runs on 5 when letting the clutch out... that tiny moment of initial take off

havnt checked the vvt solinoid will do that today

well until you workout which cyclinder is missing - no-one can help

Even then, once you FIX the once that is causing the problem, you'll find you dont have one anymore...

if i knew which cylinder was playing up IF ANY do u think id be posting here asking for anyones help???

i ask the question incase anyone else had been througha similar problem....

or for help from people that had ideas... not useless comments

as i said above....it SOUNDS like its running on 5 cylinders very breifly on take off...very very breifly though ( it may not even be running on 5 but sounds that way)

then runs unbelievably well for the rest of it

constructive ideas or people that have had a similar problem would be a great help

3lit3 32 ill look into this

.

Well how about you go and find out? Like i said...

Well how about you go and find out? Like i said...

your amazing...i went out and found it was cylinder 1....and now just like you said...its FIXED!!!... i didnt even have to touch anything!

NOT

what im getitng at if it is cylinder 1 ,2 ,3,4,5,6, what difference does it make if i have no idea what causing the problems

HENCE why i ask for opinions on THE problem...not which cylinder it is

for example ...oh that sound like an injector sticking problem i had in my old r32

example 2 ...oh that sounds like a dirty 02 sensor problem i had in my silvia

etc

well until you workout which cyclinder is missing - no-one can help

Even then, once you FIX the once that is causing the problem, you'll find you dont have one anymore...

Yeah you need to chill out a bit!!, hey hey!? is having a bit of trouble and is simply asking around for some advice and isn't that what this forum

is for!! yes maybe it is hard to give advise to hey hey, as there could be a number of reason for what it is doing but maybe some where to start would help instead of being a smart ass

+2 I'm with Punk72...

R31Nismoid, You usually have contructive ideas...bad day? :blink:

In regards to the problem, i'd suggest check your plugs first as it sounds like they may be fouling on idle then cleaning themselves as the revs go up. Also you may have the wrong heatrange...what plugs you using?

We can suggest generic solutions all day, but knowing which cylinder is important.

See if you can get access to someone with DataScan or equivalent & do a software-based power balance test at idle.

It may just be a dud plug, but do you really want to pull them all out, change them and still be wondering what the problem was?

Where are you located?

Hey let's not beat up on Nismoid here.

It is extremely important to know what cylinder a missfire is on. You simply cannot diagnose a missfire unless you know this.

It's a very valid statement to make as we are all here offering advice for days and days, using our own time, and after 5 days of rigorous testing you turn around and say 'oh I found the problem fellas, it was missfiring on cylinder one because there was a slightly broken wire in the injector plug at the terminal'

FUUUUUUUCK!!! - is what everyone says

If you are talking about some kind of shudder when you take off, could it be something silly like clutch shudder?

Also, if you have a valve seating problem, it will only be present at idle and the beginning of throttle (if the leak is tiny) but the missfire will definitely be there at idle.

Is it there from idle all the way up to 1000rpm? or is it fine at idle and just there once you try to take off?

see everyone is split

im saying if i knew which cylinder it is i wouldnt be posting ...i would have found the problem and fixed it the second it happened

you guys are saying find the cylinder and then u'll find the problem

im saying...ok its cylinder one! to solve this issue

now what would cause a car to miss under 1000rpm on cylinder one.....any ideas?

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
