Hi all,

I have an R33 GTS-t with the following work done. 3inch turbo back exhaust, K&N pod, r34 GT-T cooler.

I have done the following service items

- timing belt, tensioners, seals

- new plugs bcpres-11 (gapped to 0.9)

- cleaned AFM (several times)

- cleaned all induction piping

- new o2 sensor

- cleaned AAC valve

- oils etc

Now the car usually runs really well

Recently it has developed what can only be described as R&R mode however the car is on stock boost (as confirmed by an aftermarket boost gauge) Interestingly the car also maintains 7psi at full throttle even though everyone isists it should spike higher with these mods...

I assumed I had an over sensitive ECU and it was hitting R&R due increased airflow.

That was until someone suggested it might be sensing detonation and going into a conservative fuel map. This scared me!

So I will check that the knock sensors are connected (a problem that I read during a serch that caused this)

Just on the odd occassion the car will start fine (first start in the morning) then stall, and yes I gave it time to prime. The car will then start normally.

What would cause this? Fuel Pump? Dead AFM? Would it be anything that would cause my strange R&R at standard boost problem?

Now if it is fuel pumps can someone suggest the part number for the common recommended pumps (bosch, walbro, tomei etc) their part numbers for the ones that bolt in, no mods required. Looking for capacity to run about 10-12 psi tuned with the above mods. Also would appreciate any recommended places in melb for getting these at a good price

Thanks!

Heres the tomei fuel pump for a r33 gtst on nengun. http://www.nengun.com/tomei/fuel-pump-niss...yline-r33-gts-t I bought one after i ditched my walbro, when i thought it may of been causing problems, they are pretty easy to install but a bit of overkill for what you want. A bosch 040 is easy enough to install and roughly about half the price.

What boost gauge are you using?? mine was getting a couple extra psi after i installed a full exhaust and was getting a little extra at night. Im not sure if it went into R&R if it would cause less boost?? Unless it was stupidly rich.

it just feels flat, no missfire no pop crackles, nothing. Its smooth as silk. However its down on power. When I reset the ecu the other day it went back to its normal self and was gre4at but by the following night it was 'flat' again. So just chasing the fault.

I just have a calibre digital boost gauge. shows 5 to 4500rpm then 7 so seems accurate, the car just isnt spiking. Not sure if the car stays in R&R mode once it happens or if it resets after you shut the car off?

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
