Any symptoms? Splutter? Missing?

Had anything in or out?

Tried to clean anything when all of this happened?

Why was it running even at 0.5bar when it should have been 0.8 on a squirt?

changed the oil not long before it happened and the car has always been runnig on 0.5 since i got the car last year.

other than that the car is running good.

If you are going off the stock MFD, can you tell what it reads as idle?

Have a listen at idle in the engine bay for hissing too. Theres a thin vacuum hose that goes from the rear of the engine to the sensor pickup near the driver side strut tower. Have a feel for leaks.

Mine split ever so slightly near the join. Symptom was almost no vacuum on the boost gauge and had the same issue when giving a slight boot. You would also occassionally see a bit more fuel in your exhaust.

One thing that can do it is a collapsed cat. It happened on my last car.

hi mate i checked the cat today and found the exhaust was leaking from both sides, but the cat it self was ok. i changed the gaskets but it ends up it wasent the problem. i found the pipe that goes to the boost sensor was broken from behind the engine. but thanks for all your help.

sounds like you got it sorted, but for workshops i would highly recommend Status Tuning (soon to be Chequered Tuning) and also of course Race Pace Motorsports if you need the car checked.

Any mods yet? Trent (Status Tuning) can work some real magic if you need something tuned :)

south dandenong and bayswater, off the top of my head - Status is deadset easy to get to, very close to EastLink. Don't know about RacePace.

doesn't really matter anyway. If it takes a while to get to a good tuner, it takes a while to get to a good tuner. It is EASILY worth the time/effort to take your car to a place that knows what they're doing.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
