struggling sound?????? more info, check ur pipes, boost control hoses, remove controller, start from there, new cooler second hand, new cooler or second hand

just had alook at the engine bay seems fine, no pipes out. yer when i give it to it, it struggles to hit high revs. when i got it in hi boost it does it bad, but when i got it on off mode just a minor bit. wouldnt be coz i got stock ecu?

Did you read what I posted? Also, how much boost are you running?

it only happens when i hit high boost, i read a few threads with similar problems and it results in coilpacks, but i dont want to buy them unless im 99% sure :S. by the way if you have faulty coil packs does that mean you get less km's from a tank? because ive been getting less km's recently

question guys, insted of making a new thread i thought id ask here. ive pretty much come to the conclusion my coil packs are on there way out. now im abit short on cash so i was thinking is it worth getting brand new nissan coil packs from justjap or should i save for yellow jackets. would the stock nissan coil packs handle my mods?

take it to a proffesionall

Sighh............ :laugh:

There are a couple wonderful tutorials in the DIY section about fixing coil packs yourself. Lowering the gap is a good idea too (on new plugs). Don't bother spending hundereds of $ until you have exhausted your $free.99 options first. DIY section. Search.

before you go looking at coils, pull your plugs out and see what gap they are and what condition they are in. if they are 1.1mm plugs and have been in there for quite a while they may have worn and the gap may be bigger than 1.1mm so just putting new plugs in will solve the problem and only cost you about $30.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
