Hi guys, just a quick question on whether i may have a problem or if this is normal.

If I put my foot down in first gear my car will bounce on the rev limiter for a few seconds (seems like 3 or 4 seconds) before finally shifting up into second. Im fairly sure this isnt supposed to be normal so I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this in theirs and if they did anything to fix it.

There are a few mods on the car but nothing too dramatic, just a front mount intercooler, pod filter, cat back exhaust and I beleive coil packs.

Also, does anyone know of a place in Adelaide that services Autowatch alarms?

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

Brett

I had a problem similar to this in an R32. Turned out it was a vacuum leak from a badly fitted boost gauge.

Interesting, mine only has the normal 3 gauge cluster with volts, oil temp and boost gauge on it. I do have issues with the boost gauge not actually working most of the time though. I was planning on getting this looked at along with a few other electrical problems that ive had since i bought the car.

I think I might take it in to get the trans serviced and then go from there.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
