hey guys picked up my r33 yesterday and has a mad hesitation not only on boost but even down low, when accelerating it hesitates, then power comes in then hesitates once again.

today i changed the fuel filter finding the filter itself inside the housing was rattling around. it made it slightly better.

the car has a large bosch fuel pump in it and the next stage it to replace that.

if anyone has had anything similar in the past i would like to hear about it.

Thanks, Paul

Im having the same problem in the 32, from the research ive done it could be a) the AFM(s) if so give them a clean, b) the spark plugs, if so grab some new ones c) coilpacks, silicone them up or replace them or d) 02 sensor, this is a bitch to check but ive decided to bite the bullet and get them replaced for peace of mind. Im installing new plugs and coils today, well let you know how it goes. In the mean time theres a sticky'd 02 sensor section or go here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Mi...sensor+problems for the other ideas ( he had a 33 gtst aswell)

It's not the f#$%^n O2 sensor - its input is totally disregarded by the ECU during acceleration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How many F$%^&*N times does it have to be said!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, I know you've only had the car for 1 day, but what mods does it have? Aftermarket ECU? Atmo BOV? Anything else?

thanks for the help,

umm its got forged pistons, cams, big garret turbo, full exhaust with extractors, full motec, front mount, bov, upgraded fuel system, upgraded ignition system, rims, all whiteline suspension + more i cant think of.

i'm guessing quite a lot more times yet, LOL

i'd start with the simple things like plugs and work your way from there.

i had something similar with my SR 180 when i first bought it. tried everything, ended up being the fuel pump.

what plugs are you running, maybe you need something hotter... had some shitty hestitation when i swapped engines in the 180, swap from plat plugs to copper ones fixed that. worth a shot at $3 each :D

I stand corrected.........................wacked in the new spitfires and plugs and yay no hesitation any more!

im running iridium plugs, and they look near new. coils are good too not arcing around edges.

im a mechanic so i have run fuel pressure tests to eliminate the fuel system.

i have also quenched the cam sensor and that made no difference

took out plugs and coils today to check them, put it back in and didnt seem as bad, took longer then usual for it to start stuffing up i think i might fill the plugs with a grease to see if that fixes it.

yea the thing is its running full motec and i highly doubt that will shit itself. i have to get a cable for the motec to plug a laptop in and see hte problem,

again this avro will b more diagnosing and ill see how i go, thanks for the help so far guys

I thought oxygen sensors remained in use (closed loop) until wide open throttle, i.e. until the throttle position sensor is maxed out it's still going to be used?

did abit more work today, tomorrow i am putting my mates r33 coils in my car and seeing how it runs. hopefully better.

gota do a few little things like change belts, service, brake fluid flush ect, and polish it too so its a big weekend for me!

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
