Hi guys,

As the title says im having some trouble with my 33 and have been for some time now.

When i was out one nite i decided to give it a bit of a fang, lit the tyres up bounced off the limiter n then lost total power.

After that the car would not idle at all, when i was slowing down and coming to a stop it just wanted to die. Also it blows heaps of blue smoke now (not 100% certain on colour but will update you all tomorrow in the light),

Well i thought it was turbo, so i pulled it out and had a look at it. Compressor wheels look fine, no dints no shaft play ncie n tight. Dump pipe, front pipe, intercooler the lot.

Then i went back and fitted everything back in, making double sure everything was connected properly especially all the hoses/pipes, also replaced dump/front pipe with BATMbl's 3" splitter, cleaned sensor screwed in dump pipe (o2 sensor?), also looked at afm (z32) n looks nice n clean.

Fired her up, idles nicely now at 1000rpm or there abouts, but still blows heaps of smoke.

I have as of tonite put in the power fc but wasnt able to start her up caus its got no bloody oil, so ill wait til tomorrow to see if this may fix it

Any idea what the problem is/could be?

Cheers in advance

Shane

I plugged in the pfc and took some fuel out and now doesnt blow any smoke, but idles like u wouldnt believe, shudders like a mofo and wont rev passed 4000rpm

so its off to mercury motorsport on tuesday to see whats the problem

Well got it back from mercury yesterday.

They had a look at everything and said the problem was that the spark plugs were only done up finger tight and there was heaps of carbon build up on them.

So they replaced them and tuned my power fc and they said it was running heaaaaps rich, now she runs nice as and dynod up at 180.2 rwkw :)

Thanks for all the help guys :P

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
