sometimes, well most of the time i have it flat stick or slight throttle it bounces off the limiter and bogs down, missfires and slowly looses revs and power, its like what happens when your spark plug gap is ****ed...it was doing it with a gap of .8 then i went to a .7 but still does it. if i back off and back on the throttle it will sometimes get better but once it hits the limiter again itll bog down, missfire and loose revs even with foot flat or slightly, its like as if its surging out. this is mainly halfway through a slide (off street). all i want it to do is bounce off the limiter cleanly for peace at mind.

whats a solution? should i close or open gap more or is it something else? timing perhaps? i got no idea

cheers.

The R34 will happily bounce off the rev limiter all day.

It used to be a slow pop pop pop as it hit limiter and then dropped spark then picked up again, but now with the light flywheel, its like a machine gun!

Nice.

Could be coils if it starts happening before you get to the limiter - mine starts misfiring at around 4500, and I don't usually see more than that because it feels terrible.

I understand that the car isn't running properly, but why do you want it to bounce off the limiter? If you're accelerating, hitting the limiter is costing you time, if you're doing a burnout, backing off the throttle a fraction should make bugger-all difference to smoke output, and if you're trying to drift, hitting the limiter generally means that you either have no throttle control or you're doing it wrong.

Learn throttle control - your car will thank you for it, and you'll be a better, quicker driver.

its not that i bounce it off the limiter often, its just the satisfaction that it will run cleanly if need be. all these people are sayin learn throttle control, learn throttle control, when clearly its not about that, i must explain a little better, as SOON as it hit the limiter, no bouncing off it, even without WOT, it still does it, sometimes doesnt even need to hit limiter, it just goes BRRRRR, looses revs and power and sometimes backfires hard. always when its under load.

sorry to confuse the subject but yea im not one of these 'lets just flatten it around a corner' style drivers.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
