Having troubles with my gtr, here are the symptoms:

Power: 320awkw

-When under load in 1st and 2nd gear it feels normal (fast) but i put it into 3rd it feels "slow"

-Then it decides to be slow in 1st and 2nd then fast in 3rd

-Literally 5 seconds later i boot it again to see any difference, it decides to be fast or slow in random gears

-The car has a f**ked clutch booster, its making the squeeky sound and is leaking air, could this contribute to the problem?

-I have checked my hand controller, at idle afm 1 is sitting at 0.1 and afm 2 is on 0.15 volts (actual numbers are afm1 89-94 afm2 1.06-8

-Under light load in neutral it gets closer to 0.2 difference and when i back off it goes to 0.27 difference

-Abd drops alot faster than afm 2, is that too much of an variable for those afms?

-The afm's are Z32

It sounds like a afm problem but i could be wrong.

Just tested the car underload and the results were

AFM 1: 4.19 volts

AFM 2: 3.88 - 3.98 volts

at idle

AFM 1: 0.91

AFM 2: 1.08

Is it normal for AFM 1 to be lower at idle and higher under load? And is that an acceptable variance?

The car has been running perfect today, no loss of power at all so i am stumped as to what the problem is. Any help would be appreciated and if this is in the wrong section can it be moved please

silly question, but have you earthed the fuel pump? takes 5 mins to do and eliminates so anoying and potentialy destructive problems

Not sure, car was bought as is besides the tune i had done to it a month or so ago. Have had the car for a year and a half and this is the first time it has done something like this :D

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
