Hey guys. Ive posted before about this before. I thought i fixed my issue where i found a slit hose. my car would cut out at low revs, complete power loss then come back. Its completely stock rb20det

Ive done all my research. Ive read many forums but nothing is helping me.

I start my car go down the drive way drive off and bam at like 1-2k rpm the car starts hesitating and i cant accelerate. Its happened after ive put a dump pipe on. All connections are fine. Everyone keeps saying different things im really confused. Can anyone lead me into the right path. What should i be looking for.

It doesnt sound like a vacuum leak or coilpacks because its not missing.

Tell me about it mate. Could be anything really. I had a look at most stuff. If there were leaks or not. All seems to be fine.

Car was perfect untill i installed the dump pipe... maybe it needs a tune?

UPDATE;
I took it for a spin today. It was driving fine. No cut outs or anything. Was boosting harder than ever. I dont wanna keep driving and the next day it plays up on me. i doubt the problem fixed it self lmao

This is happening to me i have absolutely no idea why. It seems to drive fine nothing wrong then all of a sudden it cuts out its like the key has been turned off while im trying to accelerate. if im at a complete stop and it begins to do it, it sounds cammed and wil rev high then drop down to the point of almost stalling then rev back up then do the same thing. When its doing this i cant give it any accelerator at all it just bogs down, ive replaced the CAS twice, checked TPS, AFM Cleaned, checked coilpacks. I have no idea what this could be :(

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha

      Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.

      Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha
