Sounds like a vacum leak. Check all your signalling hoses/vacum lines for splits and cracks. Also brake booster and variable length intake actuator diaphram for breakage/busted seal.

Yeah I've tried a different afm also a different tps sensor hoping that that would solve the issue but no luck. I would have gone the cheaper plugs but yeah as Neil said just getting to the plugs is a bitch the whole intake pretty much has to be unhooked and taken out. Which isn't a fun job at all. Hopefully this afternoon when I get the car back they will have found out the issue.

So turns out the plugs were causing timing issues with both my tps sensor and my ignition timing which was throwing out my timing in general, causing flat spots. But in all that with a dyno run a tune and new plugs cost me a bit but it the car runs completely different to what it did before hand. Gained and extra 60kw atw from the run they did this morning. Pretty happy with these guys but it still feels like its missing while cruising which is driving me insane... Going to give what iseekool said ago on the weekend to see if that makes it runs 100% :)

60kw gain? It must've been running like an absolute slug before it went in, since that's about half the stock power output. My guess is today they dodged the dyno results somehow. But as long as it drives better then that's a bonus.

Yeah well it was running like crap mums gt 86 was beating me in a straight line which was just embarrassing to be honest.

A GT86 is quicker than an n/a R34. I don't see what you are getting at here. LOL :P

I'd put in a fresh o2 sensor in too, helps during cruise and for fuel economy.

Old injectors can cause issues too with slight misses at light throttle inputs. A friend and I have experienced that. Cleaning them usually won't help due to age/wear and tear.

Ahhh okay thankyou will do. Any chance you would know anywhere that sells standard injectors. I shopped around a while back but could only get turbo ones which were something like 600cc from 999...

Thats a good idea I'm gonna have to have shares with the Commonwealth to buy the injectors from them but hopefully it'll work thanks. Was just hoping to get some new ones really anywhere apart from nissan:-/

So for future reference if anyone has this issue. It ended up being my "tps sensor". It was tested by an auto electrician and everything was working as it should right voltage etc. I managed to get one off a car someone was wrecking and car runs fine now.

Im just curious, how much rwkw you running now in total? Cause a standard N/a skyline is roughly 90 - 100rwkw, gaining 60rwkw would mean you were running 40rwkw before? Unless you are putting out more than factory?

Total is 163.4 from memory. Made a massive difference after the tune when it was done. It was like driving a completely different car power wise. When I chnaged the Tps sensor over I put the connection as far down as I could as the further I moved it up the more the car reved and it hasn't played up once since I've done so. And its a manual transmission :-) couldn't make myself get an auto:-P

Hello I'm new to skylines Australia. I have a very similar problem atm with my rb25de neo

When in get up in the rpm say at 3500rpm there is a flat spot for a second then after the flat spot it picks up again

It's kinda like it's not getting enough fuel but i have a few things I got to look over but I just need someone else's input to help me. Ty

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
