hey guys I am wondering if you can help me. My rb20 is ****tering alot on idle and low revs at light throttle under 3k revs, the tone of the engine also sounds different and there seems to be a lose of power (maybe in safty mode). I have always had the cold start stammer which goes away but this is different. I took it for a run up the freeway which seemed to cure it untill the next cold start so I dont think its a coil pack, and the plugs were changed about 4k km ago (iridium .8mm). I took the CAS off a little while ago and cleaned the contacts which cured both but then its come back worse so I am thinking it could be the CAS gone. Will check my TPS as well from memory 0.5mv idle and WOT 5mv.

My AFM is clean as so should be that.

Anyone got any suggestions???

I did get the CAS code on my ecu a while ago and will check it again. could this be causing the problem.

CHeers guys

Ok looks as though I have stuffed knock sensors, I got the 34 code and then I reset my ecu, started it again and got 34 code again, check both knock sensors both seem to be plugged in and wires attatched, could this be causeing my missfire problems?????

spose it would retard my timing if they were both stuffed causing the misfire what do you recon, anyone ever replaced them, they are a pain to get to so replaceing them would be a killer. what do they cost???

anyone?????

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
