As the title says, my s1 r33 rb25de is lacking power, everytime i hit the gas the car seems like its gonna stall, like lossing heaps of kick or miss fires and than takes off.

Can anyone please tell me wat speed there at at 3000rpm on every gear?

e.g:

* 1st Gear @ 3000rpm .............?

* 2nd Gear @ 3000rpm ............?

* 3rd Gear @ 3000rpm .............?

Now i know these kinda depends on wat mods you have, but yea long as i got a fair idea where i'm at. And there is nothing wrong with my speedo. :)

Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: ok guys lets just focus on the bottom end power.

regardless of what power you are making, you will still achieve the same speed in each gear at a specific rpm. power will just determine how long it takes to get there. correct me if i'm wrong.

I'm lacking power recently as well - the engine feels really choked up or something.... anyone else having similar problems?

In my car the loss of power was the coil packs not having the punch from about 3000-5000rpm. This started when it was still N/A and caused most of my dramas tuning after the turbo was put on. I replaced 5 packs to get it back to normal, and today the last of my R34 packs died so it's starting to miss again and lose power in the 3000-5000 range :D

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
