Hi Guys,
I bought a 95 r33 gts-t s1 about a month ago. Everything is pretty much stock on the car except for the 3" exhaust, boost controller, air intake and dump pipe
The thing is, when I got the car, it was running perfect then I got a little too gready and pumped the boost controller up. I ended up blowing the plugs. I took it to the mechanics next door where I work and he fitted some dodgy ones that were misfiring badly. From previous threads I learnt that the gaps were too big. So I brought it back and the damn mechanic checked the fuel pressure as well as reduced the boost way down.
The car kept misfiring and I kept insisting for the plugs to be regapped. Today, while I was driving I noticed that the engine sounded lke it was under tremendous load, sort of high turbulence noise. The boost is really week, and there is practically nothing from the blow-off valve. It consumes too much fuel. nearly 3/4 tank over 80 kms.
The car has also lost tremendous amount of power. It lags everytime I put my foot on the throttle. I tried to inspect what was going on under the hood. I noticed a little oil stain near the intake.
I have spent the last 6 hours goin through turbo leaks, coil failure, afm failures and many others.
I am really nervous. I have booked an appointment with SHIFT performance to have a look at the car on Tuesday.
The thing is I am extremely anxious and worried. Has anyone experienced similar troubles. What should I do? Is it going to be costly?
I appologize if there are any similar posts. Help, Please!
