Hi all, long time reader first time poster

through 2nd and 3rd my car at about 4500 it feels like i'm taking my foot of the excelerator and back on it in a flash. Before i got my new tyres it was getting to be hairy when it done it in second as the car would step out a little.

I had the link ecu put in at the end of last year without a problem until now. It only happens when the car is under load, and it doesnt happen all the time. I'm thinking it might be time to change the spark plugs, but i just wanted to know what some of you guys thought. I'll take it to a shop if i cant just do it myself, but i would prefer to do it myself.

I know there is something similar to this in a sticky thread, but i was wondering if you all thought it was the same problem. Aparently rb20's are known for the coils playing up?

i have the following mods:

1990 180SX, RB20DET, GT2530, greddy fmic. 3" Exhaust, Bosch Fuel Pressure Regulator, Bosch 450HP Fuel Pump, GTR Injectors, LINK plug in ECU, GTR 4 Piston Calipers and Rotors, Z32 AFM/Pod Filter, Turbosmart mbc, Type III BOV......185rwkw (13 psi)

Thanks in Advance

Kurt

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
