Hey guys ..

My R33 Automatic gtst when accelerated hard starts to cough after a certain point.... it coughs and regains acceleration and again coughs and that continues... but the car drives great when it is not taken to high acceleration .... i dont normally race the car to high rpm ... and the car is running on standard boost at the moment... so was wondering if anyone could help me out with this situation .... did anyone come across this before?

At a guess this happens around 4500rpm? Probably has between 80 000 and 100 000km on the clock?

Its your coil packs.

If you do a seach, youll find 11ty billion threads on this.

Get a set of split fire and chuck em in....your problem will probably be cured :)

Autoworx in Wangara does good deals on the Split Fires i believe.

If he cant help, try some of the other performance/import shops.

XSpeed, C-red, Hyperdrive etc etc.

Have a look at the consolidated workshop thread here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Co...hr-t191756.html

and maybe call around to see who has them. Fitting them is an easy half hour job. Fairly straight forward but if you cant do it, im sure one of the workshops can help. :D

Good luck mate.

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
