Hey guys,

Just yesterday after work i start my car (havent started the engine since the morning) while warming up the car, the rev automatically jump to about 3000rpm and stayed there. Normally it'll be about under or just above 2000rpm when the car is still cold.

Just today coming back to work from lunch, realise the rev jumps and drop automaticaly while i am driving. I mean i am only crusing about 40km/h rev jump up to like 6000rpm drops and jumps again.

Anyone experienced this problem before? What could be the problem?

Much appreciate it for any help.

Is the car hopping/stuttering? Could be AFM if that's the case.

Hi,

No the car is driving fine. The sound of my exhaust is not louder while the rev is jumpimg. I can see the rev jump in the corner of my eye. It happened this morning coming to work as well but i wasnt sure. I saw it again so now im certain.

Before all this happen, my car would just shut off with the revs dropping while i switch on the car in the morning for work. It would start on the second try everytime. Funny thing is, the car would start first time during the day even if i start the car after work which it havnt been starting since the morning.

Cheers

Henry

Do you mean you see the rev counter need jump out of the corner of your eye. Is the engine actually reving up as well or just the needle on the counter dial jumping about.

Hey guys,

In need of help asap i dont wanna leave it for too long.

Thanks

Mate get another ign module and try that im 90% sure u have a bad connection in your current one causing ur rev guage to spike, my commodore done the exact same thing but i managed to re solder the dry joint. the rb20 ign modules are not repairable unless ur an expert!

also pull out both connections of the module and check for mousture etc blow it out with a compressor that could cause a problem like this

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
