Hey everyone,

last night i was crusing around, and after a few drags and just some fast driving i noticed that when i stop at the lights (RED) my car jerks abit, not alot, but just sitting there with my foot on the brake.

Its the second time its happened to me, and never seems to happen unless i drive like that. Is there something wrong with my spark plugs? or injectors? Or is it normal?

i would love feedback guys.

cheers

mine does it too buddy.

only after hard driving though and only sometimes, not everytime i thrash. Also sometimes on long drives when it heats up quite a bit. It might be the stock coils???. a few of mine have f'd up and i have had to replace them. so i guess they are a major weak point of the r34.

Is yours auto??

Someone was telling me that from time to time a coil will drop out if it is slightly defective?? the heat affects it or something......?

but who knows...

dont you love it.

LOL

like you said it could also be the sparkies they might be fouled or something, but mine a re relatively new sparkies and it still does it. i think what we both need to do is get splitfire coils and new sparkies put them in at the same time. I have a feeling that this will fix it

mine sometimes breaks up as in misfires at 5k rpm when it is really hot as well does yours do this??

Anyone else got any ideas?

      Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
