My Skyline Needs Help!

[JordsR33]

ok so last year I traded my 07 Aurion for what I think is a series 2 gts-t r33 skyline.

This car knocked my freaking socks off.

The previous owner spent 10k upgrading the engine and I do not know what he did.

I let someone drive me home in it and the result was front end damage. no damage to the engine however.

Recently it was running pretty well.. getting up there like it did when I first got it however it was what I think is called misfiring or topping out at 4.5k revs(bouncing back and forth from 4.4-4.5) Im new to the internal combustion engine.

Anyway I took it to a regular mechanic which turned out to be a mistake.

It took them half a week to figure out that it had an aftermarket computer and what they called a load sensor(acting as a map sensor?)

this load sensor was burnt out and could supposedly have caused damage to the ecu

so $1150 later im back with a standard computer and airflow meter. they also put some new plugs in

of course this wasn't the end of it.

the engine now cuts in and out if you apply too much throttle. almost like bunny hopping.

Thoughts? Am I best taking this to a performance mechanic? Wreckers? Should I find a way to put the aftermarket computer back in or is that not possible without that same load sensor? please help

Im guessing after market injectors running on stock ecu.

SHOW US THE PARTS THEY TOOK OUT.

you need to put the computer back in and replace the other part they took out. im guessing a afm. you then need to name and shame the mechanic who has taken you for a mug and ripped you off.

either for that reason, or for the reason he's replaced the aftermarket computer with a standard.

Hopefully this is resized, "load sensor" they replaced with airflow meter to suit stock computer

I need to know if I can find something to replace the airflow meter and work with the aftermarket computer there.
