It's running stupid as I'm currently up in Crestwood and see that esp is closest and have heard of them but need recommendations

I bought a r33 to play with while I'm up here in Canberra and on test drive it was great on pick up of vehical after paying for it it cuts out when u punch and then just boost erratic I have put it down to coil packs and tune as its rich as and has a an apexi air flow metre gauge thing

Could be other things.

How much boost is it running?

The r33 ecu isn't tuneable, so you can't just get a tune.

A tuneable ecu installed and tuned could be close to 2000. You have to decide if it's worth it.

Take it to any of the shops listed and ask for advice. Don't try diagnose over the internet.

Me personally use Trojan for most everything. Labour rate and knowledge is excellent.

I have used ESP for tuning and they're good for me. But as stated stock ECU is not tunable.

Hi Ben well not sure atm I'm currently changing coil packs but have now hit road block was told and verified that my r33 is a series 1 but and bough series 1 spit fire coil pack 450 bucks later and now they don't plug into my harness also have bough a blitz digital boost controller and gauge so will be installing

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
