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??

yeah, I only notice it after thrashing, but the car is running at normal temp, and everything seems fine. Cept while just idleing it does it. Weird.

Anyone else got any ideas?

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
