Hi there I'm new to this forum and. New to skylines in general.

I own a 4 door R33 gts turbo currently when I accelerate while the car changes gears the engine cuts out really badly to the point if I take my foot off the accelerator the car stalls/cuts out completely

Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Oh the car is an auto if that helps

Cheers

I don't know if it's stock or not but it has a Garrett T04E T3/T4 turbo, a turbo smart boost tee that goes to a wastegate. The auto feels fine doesn't seem to be slipping.

After that I don't know if there is any other aftermarket stuff I bought it off a family friend who got the car for a debt someone had to him

rego'ed

Not that I can notice. I asked about the history of the car and got a hold of the old owner who had it since 2001 when he imported it from Japan as a n/a rb25de which he turbocharged not long before he handed it over to the friend I got it off, now he said it wasn't tuned after he turbo'ed it, would that be doing it?

After it revs high it cuts out not just as it changes gears. Only just noticed only had the car a week haha

Sorry, I'm new to turbo's just got my full license.

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
