Hi there all, New to the site. I currently have a problem with my Series 1 gtst with a series 2 Rb25DET. It runs fine when cold but when it gets warmer it tends to feel as if its restricting somewhere.

Ive checked the CAS, Injectors, Computer, Spark plugs.

Im really stuck on this problem the only thing i have not done of the above is replace the Crank angle sensor( Altho it looks phyisically fine) which ill be giving a shot on monday, If anyone is able to lend a hand it would be very much appreaciated. Thanks jamie.

alright well first no one can really help much as that could be from anything,

what has been done to the car, ie aftermarket parts, have you done a tune up at all in the past while like spark plugs , fuel filter ect ect.

we need more info and how long has it been happening for.

tell us everything !! :cool:

What do u mean by restricting?

When does it feel like its restricting? (Revs/speed/boost)

Umm maybe your coilpacks but yeah I dunno jut give as much info as possible and someone on here should be able to sort it out :cool:

What sort of spark plugs does it have/did u replace them with?

does it splutter and stall? or just feel like it's asthmatic? . a few things for you to change imo would be the water temp sensor to the ecu , then the air sensor thingy on the exhaust that i can't remember the name of :cool: , clean the afm out with co cleaner , check fuel pressure (actually, do that first ) , change fuel filter . ;)

Thanks for the replys guys, Ive also had the coilpacks checked and apprently are fine which is leading me to the CAS, It Defiently increases the problem when i run higher boost, The revs drop but not to stalling point normally sits about 1000rpm, Random drops to 500 on idle. Im thinking the CAS is internally damaged..

Aftermarket parts are the following:

3" Turboback Trust exhaust.

Turbo smart boost controller.

Power FC.

Garret GT30 turbo.

Bigger injectors.

Front mount intercooler.

Spitfire coilpacks.

Nismo Diff.

The restricting defiently feels like fuel/spark. Altho ive been told by the dyno results what is happening is my injectors are all switching off for like a milisecond, So im thinking earth/wiring problem Or Crank angle sensor =/

    • If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.
    • Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.
    • EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
    • Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.
    • Yeah I spent close to a year finding one. I was even tempted to buy a RB25DE N/A head and port it out. That latter option, could still be an option.
