Hey Guys,

ok so im fairly new to skylines, i hav and r33 with an rb25det.

It has recently started to act wierd under acceleration but not all the time and not all the way through the rev range.

So for example if i pull away from the lights quicker than normal but not flat out, first gear ok change into second it will be ok as i got up the revs the all of a sudden it will stop accelerating almost like its bogging down, foot will still be down on accelerator but nothing happening. so il clutch down and blip it a few times to clear it up then its ok, then change into third and it will do it again at roughly the same rpm????

But it does not do it all the time, maybe half the time. Im not confident but i was thinking maybe running lean or rich at this point just to a fuel/air sensor or an air volume sensor??

Is this common and specific things to check or clean??

The engine is completely stock apart from a HKS pod filter and a turbo back exhaust, which were both on the car when i bought it 2 months ago.

Greatfull for any info advice or solutions cheers :yes:

What kind of boost are you running?

Do you know what rpm it does it at.

When it happens do the revs keep climbing or do they bog down much like the car does.

Could be clutch slip

Could be R&R rich and retarded from running to much boost.

Also could be misfiring

so dry joints on these plugs is a common issue??

It sounds and feels to me like it could well be this or something very similar. Unfortunatly i dont know anybody else near me with a skyline.

But i may try cleaning and re inserting all the plugs??

I have not had any kind of engine warning lights come on, would a sensor issue not trigger this? ie if the afm sensor is playing around with the mixture would the exhaust egr sensor not read faulty??

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
