Hi Guys,

I currently have a slight miss on idle. Car is a stagea series one (pre Neo engine).

Its only ever so slight that you must concentrate very hard on the tacho to notice it at all, best way to tell when its happening is to stand next to the exhaust when its idling and listen for the slight change in exhaust tone for a split second. Looking at a digital RPM read out it drops only about 30rpm when it does it.

So far I have done this:

Pulled all plugs and checked them and coil packs (Splitfires)

Pressurised intake system to check for leaks with no signs except rocker cover gaskets

Replaced rocker cover gaskets and halfmoons

Cleaned airflow meter

Cleaned throttle body

Checked 02 Voltages on Consult

What else could it be? Could it just be running really rich?

Ive only really noticed it since Ive put a manual gearbox in it.

What else should I try, I was thinking maybe clean the AAC valve again (did it only a few months ago), replace the plugs even though the current ones have only done 2,500k's?

Car runs fine elsewhere except for some form of cut either boos fuel or rich and retard when i really load up the engine eg. full throttle up hill in a gear to high, reason i want to fix up this miss is so I can get the SITC, SAFC and EBC tuned to get rid of this cut im experiencing.

Sorry for the long post.

Cheers, Chris

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
