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??

    • Hahahahah, look, your not wrong πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and thank you brother πŸ™πŸΌ jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! πŸ˜… every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts.

    • If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.
    • I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.
