as ive posted so many topics in the last few days some of u may know i jus got my R34 converted to a manual since i got it back nothing but litle problems..

my newest problem is the check engine light will come on and the car's exhaus note will sound exactly like a wrx (like the putting and stuff like that) and the car starts to shake in low revs feels as if its gonne stall on me... annnd i can hav my foot flat to floor in any gear and it will jus go nowhere like i mean struggling to hit 50klms in built up areas...

it slips in and out of this mode but the engine light never goes off but sometimes it will jus randomly go back to normal sounding (the exhaust note) and suddenly my power will be all back.. then the exhaust will start putting and sounding like a classic rex and it will run like crap again :D

could it be because i still have the auto ecu running and never hooked up the manual ecu?? or does it just need a tune or in anyones opinion/experience is it something else??

cheers

coilpacks......i had the same problem..took it to a few places coz they thought it was the ecu....in the end i needed coilpacks.

ended up gettin splitfire ones, and works perfectly..not gauranteeing thats the problem but the symptoms sound very similar to a problem i had. take it to an autoelectrics place or sumthin like that

Maybe take it back to the workshop, I'm sure they could sus it out for you seeing the car was working fine before they touched it.

But yea from what it sounds like coilpacks, find one of your mates and swap, if it fixes, get some coilpacks:)

If NOT, go back to the workshop that did conversion.

      Pipe from Greddy FMIC to Greddy intake manifold (RB25)?

      By jacobzking · Posted

      Does anyone sell a pipe that's made to go from the Greddy FMIC kit for ECR33 (RB25DET) to the Greddy intake manifold?

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
