Hey All,

I have been experiencing what appears to be a rev cut with my RB26DETT motor...

I am using the RB25DET tranny in my Silvia...

The car just bogs down, like a speed cut, where it almost turns the motor off.. You get this instant thump where all power is cut to the motor...

It occurs about 7000 RPM in 3rd gear, and about 6000 RPM in 4th gear...

I'm sure it does this in all of my gears, but this is where I noticed it tonight when drag racing...

The only thing I can think of is I currently don't have any filters over my air flow meters.. The MAF's are wide open to the outside air.. All I can guess is that the MAF is sensing too much air flow and telling the motor to cut revs...

I'm just shooting in the air...

Any help is appreciated!

Chris

Who all makes a speed cut defender..?

stock ecu , speed cut comes @8000 rpm in 3rd and a bit over 6000 in fourth in fifth it will be a bit over 5000 .

it cuts out when you reach about 185-190 kmh or 114-1180mph

Trust and a few others make a speed cut defender for the GTR... they are expensive but worth it because they come with all the instructions, cable ties, wire connectors etc etc..

www.nengun.com sell to the states and his prices are good, you should have no problems getting one from there within 7 days direct from Japan.

Other alternative is to go with an Apexi Power FC if you have future plans for modifications, providing you have a local tuning shop that can tune a power fc.

As far as know (with 33's anyway because that's the only cars I've done it with) you can simply cut the wire. the wire is only really needed for idle map control on the Auto's (ie, if you let the car idle down while still rolling along the road the computer knows this)

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
