hi guys,

took my car down the strip the other week and it was fine then on the last run it was going spastic and spluttering at about 4grand but if you take your foot off and punch it again it seems to be fine. . . car was tuned for 18psi and now its only hitting 12 and doing that rubbish. . . .

ive changed over fuel pumps (had a walbro then put my mates new 044), swapped crank angle sensors and not sure what else to check. . . . i also changed the plugs too. . .

stumped on what i need to check, so any ideas would be helpful!

mods;

750cc injectors

3071r

microtech ecu

fmic

3" TB exhaust

I had a similar problem with my microtech. At about 2500 but.

Are they highflow inj?

Even if there not get them checked on a flow bench.

Can u try any other coilpacks from a mates car?

" " " " a mates ignitor too(if u run one)

ive checked the following;

Superspark igniter

Check for cracks in coilpacks

Check plugs/connections

Clean afm

Check cooler piping connections

02 sencer

Fuel pump

Leaking injector

Crank angle sensor

Fuel filter

anything else i should check??

i think i may have found the problem. . . i have rewired my crank angle sensor, basically the wire i used wasnt insulated enough so i tore apart the standard loom and am going to re-connect it using the factory cable. . . will post up when i get around to finishing it off!

noticed on the microtech that it was coming up with RPM error and REF error. . .

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
