I have standard airbox and snorkel, i might take it to OP on thursday and change it over when its doing its temper tantrum and see if this fixes it. I do have a shield in place for the pod, but it doesn't cover the top. Ohh and Kennedy yes i do feel like a jedi knight!!! lol

Yes Cubes, S2 has the igniters on the coils, and yes new splitfires went in on saturday morning. trident, the car isn't missing, going up steep hills in 4th car pulls from 1500-2000rpm all the way to 6000rpm without a miss, and so smooth with new coilpacks too. this was when car was playing up also.

firstly, are you sure its your car that smells of fuel and not your mates??? and secondly, if your car smells that bad of fuel it usaully indicates a leak somewhere. thirdly, your car ain't running that rich if thats your fuel economy. Stockers run rich from the factory, nothing you can do unless you start changing to a fuel controller or an aftermarket ECU such as a PFC. I regularly get 400 to 500kms from a tank but i don't boost it most times and do my racing at the track, where i did 250kms to a full tank!!!

Faid, It did the same thing before the FMIC went in at wakefield. cool overcast day down there. Radiator fan is stock with shroud, but if this is the case why isn't it a common problem with most R33's then. Temp needle on dash does not move, i know the temp will go up abit but its not overheating. Oil temps are pretty right, normal driving around town between 90-100 and at track went up to 125. didn't get a chance to go any higher and if it did i wouldn't let it anyway. Fuel pump is a walbro gss342 this wasn't in at wakefield either Chris. Cubes, my gut feeling says maybe fuel evaporation, but don't know if this can happen in a EFI cars. I know cars that run lean pop in the exhuast too and also no fuel then car won't idle, but again if this is the case why hasn't anyone else with stock car or same mods experience this too... Also something else too, when it does pop in the exhuast it is quite even, if you know what i mean. The pops are regular, like a beat, in not being sporatic. Although sometimes it only pops once but when this happens the car still idles fine, its only when it starts to pop regularly that it doesn't idle. Maybe what about a f**ked exhuast valve or something like that??? 700hp-GTR, car has standard ECU so no tuning as such, I did get the car checked by my tuner when i first got it, he said it was in very good condition and the k's on the clock were probably correct, when i went to the SAU dyno day at UAS earlier in the yr it made 175rwkw with only the exhuast and stock boost, bloke told me that its was a good strong motor with a good power curve. I have a PFC on the way and was waiting till then to get the thing tuned. I haven't noticed any change in fuel usage since i've had the car.I usaully get between 4-500km's, I know the car runs rich cause i get the black shit alover the back!!! and i can't hide it on a white car. I do change oil every 5-7k's. i aim for 5k but sometimes when time permits its abit more then that, oil is still reasonably clean too. Ohh and filter too. Ohh also when i do get it to start when its doing this thing, it still won't idle at all, i have to keep it reving at no less then 1500rpm to keep it going. Since i've got the car this is everything i have done to it, and in order of them going in. Car already had 3inch from turbo back exhuast, pod filter. 1. Duel stage boost controller and GFB stealth BOV, this is plumpedback. Umm i was a newbie when i got the BOV, nothing wrong with stock one that i know of. boost controller also, only running stock boost at the moment as i didn't know about R+R when i got this and installed it. 2. New HD extreme clutch with new redline gearoil. 3. New Walbro GSS342 fuel pump 4. New GKtech FMIC kit 5. New Spiltfire coilpacks and NGK Iridium plugs heat range 6 This problem baffles me too, I will be at Oran Park this thursday if anyone is going, i'm sure it will happen there so if any of you are going, come over and have a sniff around for me... please!!! Ohh also i have done a comp test and the figures ranged from 135-145, although i've since realised i didn't do the test properly, the throttle wasn't wide open and fuel wasn't turn off. this is the thread if you want to have a look. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=130019&hl=

Anyone???

mate your first post didn't ask for prices, just opinions. We gave our opinions, you do the hard work and get prices. Nengun have the HKS GT2835 pro s at $2300 brand new. CGC hi flow, what Paully said.

CGC hiflow or if your serious and if i were you i be getting a HKS gt2835 pro s.

Mate its a series 2 so no igniter pack on coil cover. My car at Eastern Creek, coil cover was off, coil packs were standard plugs were NGK copper heat range 6 Yesterday when driving normally but stinking hot day, coil cover was on, coilpacks are now brand new, changed from standards this very morning, splitfires and plugs are NGK iridiums same heat range of 6. Motor is virtually stock other than FMIC pod coilpacks dump pipe and 3inch exhuast. I'm assuming its something to do with the amount of heat under the bonnet maybe the exhuast manifold heating up and maybe a small hole between the gasket or something or even a hole in a vacuum hose somewhere??? Actually thought i might of left a spark plug loose but i checked them and all were tight and have checked to make sure all vacuum hoses were reconnected. Although i've been told these wouldn't stop a car from idling maybe just run abit rough. the AAC and AFM were cleaned a few months ago.

yeah and stings like hell when it gets into all those cuts you get from getting the bastard pump out!!

Gidday, I have a problem with my car, I've noticed at wakie and at EC when i've done a session or two the car won't idle, and when i try to start it it is hard , i most times have to play with the accel pedal to get it to start. but when its just around the street with normal driving its fine!, except saturday when it was a scorcher!! it started popping in the exhaust and wouldn't idle at all, later that night it started straight away and ran fine again. I have recently put in a new fuel pump, FMIC splitfire coils and new plugs. boost is set at 9psi. Stock ECU Thanks Adam.

Hopefully next yr I'll be chasing you guys... if everything goes according to plan that is.

Yeah Adam i did. Ando my friend, you did a great job out there to get that 1:58 mate, i accept defeat. The thing i like about dueling with you is we drive each other faster, when you caught me i thought i was going pretty quick but then i think once i saw you behind me i picked it up a notch.

Hi bud, car 105, white 33.

Just a quick one to let people in on what happened with the RX7, as i came out of turn 2 and into turn 3 i saw him on fire and but it wasn't big, i jumped out at about same time him stopped the car and for a second, and i mean a second, we thought we got it, but obviously we didn't. As more trackers came around turn 3 i think there was about 5 of us trying but all of a sudden the flames lept out across the track then within a blink of an eye it got sucked back under the car and went whoosh!!! As i said there were five of us trying and it didn't put it out. I spoke to him later and he didn't even know the car was on fire until after turn 2! he just said he smelt fumes and after turn 2 he started to smell something burning so he looked in the rear view mirror and saw flames, thats why he kept driving. Shook me up abit, i mean you go to one of these days to have fun and this poor bloke has just lost a car. He is alright, nothing wrong that a few JD's wouldn't fix but the car... Back to the day, it was great to see all you trackers out there again, and good to see the fast boys come out and play. Adam, Paul, Dan and the other bloke i didn'tget your name, the r33GTS-t with 270odd rwkw doing 1:53's all you blokes looked great out there. Ando you pimp, you got me this time but i got an excuse. Remember i said i was getting lag??? boost didn't kick in until about 4500rpm well actually it was my brand new fuel pump cutting out!!! evey right hander the thing would just struggle for a few seconds and then come good again. Left handers wasn't so bad, but mate it was great driving with you, once you get your boost sorted you should be up there with the big boys, but don't worry buddy, i'll be chasing you down! Oh and Wil that screamer sounds damn awesome!!! and i don't mean Amanda lol. My best time was 2:00.04 but am happy with that. thanks flaggies and RENEW for a top day.

man just finished putting on my semi's and checking everything, all seems ok! now if only i can get some sleep!!

Mmmmmmm.... sounds interesting.

This should be a great day, I doubt i'll be quicker than you two blokes but slip up buds and i'm past you both in a flash!!! Pity Lizzeh isn't on the track wouldv'e been a good four way battle. Looking forward to seeing you all again too. til sunday boys...

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=133664 Are these them?

I had this noise too, found that my RCA wires from the H/U to my amp in the boot was running too close to the earth wire coming from the battery to ground!!! just rerouted them away from the ground wire and noise gone.

mate i'll be interested if they were 16's???

I'm not here defending anything the RTA or whoever looks after your roads in your area, but i do know some things about whats going on. I work as a contractor to RTA and various other mobs that look after our roads. I mainly do brigde expansion joints, but just to enlighten you all... the RTA just got a 2 billion dollar increase to go towards fixing our roads, thats 2 billion on top of what they normally get, and that just in NSW. Generally the main roads are worked on at night, so not to interupt traffic too much, laying new asphalt isn't just a matter of pouring it on and levelling it out, you all complain about how bad the roads are now but alot of you hate it when we try and do our job yet make you all of 5mins late becuase you gotta slow down, some don't even slow down. To do a good job, thats what everyone wants, it takes alot longer to do then a few hours at night. When a pot hole is patched up, that is exactly what it is, a patch, a temp measure until the RTA (or whoever) can justify ripping up the whole road and resealing it. Its not cheap, i was at one job where a machine that rips up the old asphalt (called a profiler) cost $800 an hr, working or not! We usually make a pothole patch higher because the stuff we put in gets more compacted everytime a car\truck goes over it, if we made it the same height as the road in a few days it would be lower then the road itself. I am myself disgusted in our roads but we can't fix them over night. My personal bitch is when we are just doing our job and you get f**kwits c**ts driving past throwing eggs, golfballs, nuts and bolts, waterbombs and even spitting at us, and also calling us bludgers and shit, I am not a council worker nor do i work for the RTA I work for a living and i invite anyone to come work for us for a week and then still call me a bludger. We are only out there to do our job, and for f**ksake it ain't because we like being out there at night stopping you all just to make you late. Anyway sorry for the bitch. I'm calm now.

No flag marshalling for me, i'm there to race!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY my dear CUZMAN!!!! Mate have a few drinks for me, wish you all the best buddy

Farewell champ. You were and will always be one of the best.
