Hi just wondering if anyone can help me, I own an R33 non turbo automatic and ive been having some big problems with it lately. But today I turned the car on and it shook to the shithouse. The whole car was shaking and the exhaust sounded like it was missing alot. Not the smooth sound the exhaust should make. I got a video recording of the exhaust and uploaded it so view it if you can. And I have one of the engine but its not that great but will attach if asked. But a few suggestions that have been made as to what it is are coilpacks, spark plugs, engine mounts. Im going to go with coilpacks as I got new spark plugs november last year. When accelerating or sitting at the lights is when its really bad. Going down hill, nothing. Its so shaky the whole car, engine and everything. It has never done this before, this is the first day. Ive noticed it starting about three weeks ago when it felt as tho the car was shaking a little but it does the same thing being in park, neutral, drive, reverse so I just want to find out what it is, fix it and sell the bloody thing cause ive had enough. So any help would be appreciated, thanks! :)

+1 im no expert but it sounds like coil packs.

While your at it, check the right plugs are in there and clean your air flow meter.

See if anyone on the forums has a set they can lend you in Sydney.

Cross engine mounts off your list.

Cheers.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
