hi everyone i am having a problem atm with my r33 gtst rb25det it has been a problem since i have owned the car even after i have swapped motors.

when warm or cold as coming onto wot the car surges from 2000rpm to about 5000rpm then after that it completely frees up.

its a bad surge and if i hold wot when it surges it back fires and sounds like there's a front fire ?

standard boost well standard setup,

has front mount.

i have got new plugs gapped at .8

and have swapped coil packs no difference at all

timing is at 15 degres and the more timing i give better it gets

also has a new walbro hp fuel pump cant remember what models was good for 300 hp tho.

but when car is running or fuel pump is primed the fuel line isnt hard hard i can push it half way in .

any ideas on what it is guys all help much appreciated ??? thanks for reading :)

Checking the hardness of the fuel line won't tell you anything, that's what a fuel pressure gauge is for.

Obvious things to do are clean afm and check for boost leaks.

Aren't you the guy with the rb20 turbo that glows red all the time, drives hard everywhere and just got car out of impound?

If you are at all concerned about low fuel pressure......then why not either install a fuel pressure gauge into the line or take it to a mechanic who can so you can see if there's a problem or not?

yes that is me. i have started to drive normal now thanks to the new hoon laws i just want car to run good thats all

y

Are you sure you checked the timing right? Did it with a plug lead between cyl 1 spark plug and coilpack and then put a timing light on

Sounds like timing to me, especially if it gets better as you advance it

Is the CAS dead?

Of course I would agree it could possibly be the afm as I already suggested that.

and also i took the rod off the actuator and its runs smooth as f**k obviously no boost ? so what do u suggest there? i have put a afm and borrowed a cas still the same ?

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
