Rev Limiter On R33 Gtst

[85URK]

ok pplz, i noticed the other day when i got up my car a bit and took it to 7 grand it hit rev limiter in second before changing into third, and when i slowed down to a stop to turn into a street the car stalled? was this a result of the rev litmiter telling the computer to shut down so not to damage the engine or something else??? any ideas??? has this happened to any1 else, and also on idle sometimes it revs between 650rpm and 900rpm but goes up and down and fells like its going to stall?? thanx

Moving to forced induction... You'll get more replys there...

Do you have a atmospheric BOV? That can cause stalling probs...

[bless_you]

yeah, probably your Atmo BOV.

will cause stalling under sutten deceleration and irratic idling

nah not caused by the rev limit, rb25s love running there

the bov is the standard plumb back one and the only noise u hear is the spool thorugh the air pod filter

I've really needed someone to answer this question too.

Everytime I take it past around 6,000rpm I feel really guilty and bad for my poor baby

Are RB25DET's really rev happy? Like Honda VTEEKKKK BROOOO motors?

Try your throttle body.. Sometimes they become clogged and need to be cleaned out.

My car was acting like a spastic and revving like a retard and stalling so they cleaned the throttle body out and it came all good! Could be something as easy as that and a coincidence that it happened when you revved it out

Does your engine 'pop' alot? If so could be dirty plugs...

Could it also be the coil packs? This happened to me really badly, so replaced the plugs and cleans the coil packs with contact cleaner and it seemed to fix it.

I'm probably way off though.

definetly not related to the rev limit..

probably electrical related, such as AFM(i would try cleaning this before trying other things), spark plugs, or maybe a timing problem. also look for air leaks, check all the hoses.

well ive read another forum post in here and it opened up a can of worms! there are so many things to try and fix huh, afm, idle sensor etc etc. im convinced now that alot of skylines have this problem stocl or modded. they stall and play up on idle and deceleration sometimes. its all trial and error i suppose by the looks of it. it hasnt played up much only that once and i got a bit worried that i thrashed it too hard and it did something bad to it, but obviously not, by reading in here about it. so ive figured that step 1 :check and clean all meters and contacts and check hoses for cracks. thats a start i suppose. but i dont think my particular car has anything wrong with it, just that 1 time like it states in other posts, the fuel pump earth could be the problem. anyway thanx for the info pplz. i dunno what id do without this forum! good job guys keep em coming. 85URK
