Check your CAS mate, mine was busted with very similar symptoms: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/326043-resolved-misfire-in-r34-gtt-rb25det-neo/

Edited by V28VX37

It started happening lastnight it did it twice and then when i drove it this morning it was happening slightly again but after driving for 10 minutes it started completely dying its normally around take off, at one point i was at the lights and i reves the engine up slowly and when it hit around 2.2k revs it started to shutter then when i took of from the lights slowly 5 metres up it started shuttering bad its feels like when you tap the accelerator hard, i had to pull over because the accelarator was keeping it at 1.5-2k revs and not going any higher i turned the car on and off tryed reving it a few more times it finally worked got 15 metres around the corner it started jerking and doing the same thing and the engine light came on i pulled over turned it off tryed to look for a problem turned it back on and it reved up fine and i made it home from there which is a 5 minute drive but it was slugging and shuttering most the way

Just my two cents but I had a afm issue not long ago and ended up having to replace it, it's a very fragile part and even by cleaning it they can be damaged. If it is your afm I suggest replacing it with one that definitely works 100%. A slight bump can kill them so be careful

it was doin it a bit the night before and i cleaned the afm the next day before i went on the short drive, 10 minutes later it was still bad then just got alot worse,ill look into getting a new afm see if that helps at all, i saw similar problems last night where it was coil packs, could it be my coil packs aswell ? Thanks for the help guys i really apreciate it

Just a quick update guys went to start car this morning kept wanting to die and would not at all go past 2k revs i pop the bonnet try bush the afm cord in and it dies, so i took the cord out and put it back into the connection now she will rev normal, so definately has to be afm

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
