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

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

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 :P

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

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

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
