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 =/

    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy. 
    • I can't speak for the US, but for Canada as I mentioned above, all fuel gases contain ethanol. We have regulations for E5/E10/E15. Each province handles it differently but basically any fuel gases sold must be E10 and slowly increasing to E15 by a certain year. 
    • Hey guys, Purchased and drove up new wheels from Vic last weekend. Car never been registered in Aus before. Only thing was aware of was pod filter which reverted back to stock. Went to get blue slip in western sydney. Everything with car fine (compliance etc) and knocked back for coilovers. Was told illegal and need engineering cert. Called the certifier they recommended and was told at min $1000 to certify them. I was then told HP can STILL defect you even with them certified. All this was news to me. Is this just a case of deal with pay the $1000 and run the risk? Kind of nuts given the amount of people running with coils I know of. No one I know has OEMs to use to pass, either.
    • Welcome mate. Best Stagea is best Stagea. How is it driving a correct hand drive vehicle driving on the right? The Japanese do the opposite here and they've made parking boom gate ticket things on both sides to cater for LHD and RHD cars, as there's so many of them (mostly German but there are quite a few American cars too).
    • So of these and these, which ones have ethanol in them?
