Hi guys having problems with my Rb25det R33 auto its an intermitant problem and never happens when at the workshop

firstly i thought i was just a simple fuel filter problem as the car was stalling and reluctantanly came onto boost generally blowing a big puff back thru the airfilter? so I replaced the fuel filter witch was totally clogged up with crap the car went fine for a week then it started doing it again I checked fuel filter all good took it to the mechanics they serviced it, it went fine untill a day later same symptoms decided to drop a walbro gss341 pump in as ive used em before no worries took out the old which ended up being a bosch 040 my second favourite pump, problem is still there cleaned afm with co-cleaner replaced the new fuel filter just in case, any suggestions would be appreciated generally I can source a solution on here with out posting but this time im stumped.

Hi guys I am still struggling to get my skyline up and running i have now totally changed every sensor recomended throughout these forums workshop dont really want to no about it anymore they cant figure it out, so what now? any suggestions would be great I dont expect a miricle answer just next place to start, ECU maybe? its auto can i still get a aftermarket setup? apexi wont work :( maybe cheaper to swap engine but what if its something not on the engine? any help would be great thanks

update - no earth straps connected now connected elimated turbo back fire and rich smoke from exhaust on hard exaleration and cleaned idle up remarkable could this have dameged something not being earthed?

new coils- yellow jacket

new sensors on engine got am all im sure

new fuel pump walbro

new fuel filter

injectors untouched so far have run cleaner thru though

afm swapped 3 times so its definatly ok

full tank empty no diff still does it

20 hours fault finding in work shop at $85.00 per hour im sure they spent way more time on it

sypmtoms are car runs sweet as then it will just pig root around like its on 2 cylinders and stays that way no matter where you are rev wise, and regardless of what load is on the motor, a/c on and off no diff was running fine for almost a year then this happened, car drives 1.2km a day 5 days a week.

I guess I would start measuring the resistance of every wire on the ecu, back to its sensor, starting with the afm? It sounds like a bad connection/broken wire. Was one of the afm's new? They didn't all have had loose wires inside did they?

Good luck. :thumbsup:

:) thx for the replies, i have just installed new plugs as part of the elimination process, its a series 2 engine etc but the car itself is one of the ser 1.5, ill look into the ignitor I will do a search after this to find out where it is located, im regional but would like to replace the coil harness any chance sum one has one for sale?

scotty 2 of the afm's are on still working skylines, mates that work out in the mines so a could use theirs' while they whernt in town it is starting to sound like a connection or wire problem within the harness so i will need lotsa luck :( how hard is it to just replace the whole harness?

    • While there is no current law for the spoon, let's swap to a different utensil. Example, does the store get fined for selling a butter knife if it ends up being a murder weapon? Perhaps they cpuld be done for assisting if they *knew* it was going to be for such a purpose. But, if used properly, which was its primary design, it's a tool for a job that's legal. I could understand companies being prosecuted if they advertise their products for being road legal if they in fact, are not. Possibly, but not necessarily, the tuners for tuning a car to a non legal fashion(emissions), but there is always the possibility that the customer really doesn't intend to use the car, in that configuration, on the road. So long as the companies can prove they have conveyed how illegal it is to use the now illegal car, in a place where the vehicle must meet the laws, they shouldn't be punished. Not sure about other countries or states, but I've been made aware that I can't legally stop a client from taking and driving their own car in NSW, Australia, even if they owe the shop money. It must go through court to get the funds from the customer, and you need to get the police or roads covering body representatives to come and stop the owner from driving the car, even if I know how hazardous the vehicle is.
    • probably around the $1700-1800 fitted in his sizes.  The ar1 is heaps cheaper. Get on scumplace I got some A052 295/35/18 for $400 that had done maybe 20-25 hot laps of SMP. 
    • People are going faster on CRS than AR1, so there's that 😕
    • Go the CRS, cheaper than the A052 and same if not better 1 lap performance when suspension is dialled for it. If wanting to do back to back laps the A052 and can cool off and go again next lap will be the better option. I have gone quicker over 1 lap with CRS than the A050 I came from but may be due to getting more seat time. I am driving CRS on the street lately in different conditions and its going well, a lot better than AR1 in the wet. AR1 is a race tyre, CRS is a Hill Climb/time attack/Sprint tyre. 2 different things, a slick is on the way too. The mighty gay mods choice of tyre is proper rubbish for those that actually drive on track not park at bunnings at night.
    • Seems to be a common issue, I had a look at two used tanks and both had similar cracks to mine. No one that does plastic welding near me seems to want to do it to a fuel tank lol
