Hey guys,

Have this problem with my R33 gtst series 1 where i give the car full throttle in first gear as tested in that gear most of the time and as i push the clutch and as the revs drop the car starts to sound like a WRX or like 5 cylinders for only like a few seconds but some times maybe 10 seconds and then goes back to normal and no problem.

Car does miss a lil here and there but plugs have been gapped to .75 and doesnt cut out at all at high rpm or between gear shifts like it used to before but always sounds like wrx and goes to normal again within 10 seconds after giving it full throttle.

I thought maybe its the coil pack or one breaking down at high rpm and then goes back to normal but gives me no time to check it as it runs back to normal after sounding like that.

Dont have any spare coil pack or stock ones to test it so dont wanna go buy splitfire ones as not sure on the problem.

Car has yellow jackets on it but are second hand ones.

Anyone have any idea maybe on what it could be

Ive only got series 2 coilpacks as spares from my brothers car but they wont work of the ingniter built in to them or can they or get them to work?

I do have aftermarket b.o.v but plumb back not atmo.problem just started happening recently and havent touched anything...

doesnt sound like a fuel problem.

to be exact on the sound it does its like taking out the plug from one of the coil packs for 5 seconds but then pluging it back in and back to normal but only at high rpm and wen coming down rpm or its good again like it fixes up.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
