:down: You must be joking...

all am trying to do is work out what is up with my car and what i put in the first post was the best way to describ it

so pls if you can't help dont post

and if every one wants to act like a 12yr old here you go

PS like no one on this forum has never hit limiter in there car....just to add i dont do it on the streets as i dont drive the car. my misses dose...i only drive it on the track

oh oh befor i for get i know i cant sell so no point telling me something that i all ready now.

Of course it flat lines - it's hit a limit. It's doing exactly what Nissan designed it to do. It protects the engine from idiots.

Actually Daniel, the problem is somewhere between the left ear and the right ear - I think it's called a vacuum.

Is that so?

You're the one acting like a 12 year old. You're driving like you're playing a computer game? Learn how to drag race properly. Both power and torque curves stop way before the rev limiter - there is simply no need to take the engine RPM that high.

sorry ppl for wasting my time here i guess the question is just to hard for a lady to answer ill go to a forum where they no about jap cars not a forum where they think they no about jap cars

Go to another forum...but before you do, perhaps consider that given everyone here is telling you how much of a jackass you are...you might be wrong in what you are doing and saying? We're not the ones who are going to end up with a conrod through our engine blocks. And I'll warn you...you will get the same responses from any knowledgeable forum. What really made me laugh is you saying "Jap cars" as if this is a Jap car specific "problem"? Go back to playing Need For Speed you idiot.

not to be smart but i dont play computer games or game consoles....i dont drag race and the only time i have ever hit the limiter was at the skidpan when i spun out (i'm not saying i know how to drive)...and the car has only been rego for 2weeks or there abouts and the misses drive it as i'm on my green P's and have my 2 kids in the car most of the time so to do any thing of they above with kids in the car or evern with out kids in the car your an idiot

hey man i'm just trying to work out what is up with it

Why is the problem bothering you if the only time you hit the rev limiter is at a skidpan?

I can do anything in my car without hitting the engine rev limiter...even burnouts...but they aren't really my thing. Shift long before the limiter and practice throttle control...then you will be fine. I'm guessing your ECU shut down your engine, as is the function of a rev limiter, to protect it. Much the same thing happens when you hit 180km/h in a JDM vehicle.

hmmm ok thank you....i was chating to a mate a few days a go and he thinks it may be the CAS as the car was in a aco by the previous owner.

Well a quick fix for this problem, Firstly BEFORE you get to the redline you need to rapidly remove your right foot/shoe from the accelerator pedal. Then with your left foot/shoe you need to press in the pedal furthest to the left ( this is called the clutch pedal ) Whilst that pedal is depressed , With your left hand you need to reach over and grab the gear stick and gently but assertively select the next gear. When this sequence is complete gently but assertively release pressure from the clutch pedal ( your left foot/shoe ) until pedal has completed all of its travel. Resume acceleration by pressing the pedal furthest to the right ( Accelerator pedal )

Hope that helps your problem :)

cheers man now i see what i was doing wrong...i was flat changing and for getting about lifting the right foot/shoe befor changing gears :):ninja:

i understand wat ur saying with the (flat line) bit if its a factory computer i cant say from experience cuz ive never had a standard computer but dont they have sum sorta protection cut that basically stops the engine from revving completely..... my mates lil sss pulsar in lil fits of rage hes just hold it on the rev limiter and it would just die in the arse or as old mate says it flat lines as if the fuel or ignition had been shut off for a second.... not saying its the same thing but i defo noticed it.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
