Hey guys, used 3/4 of my lunch searching for an answer so im just gona ask,

got a problem, s2 r33, stock ecu and boost control, once over 4000 rev's the car begins to hesitate and it feels as if its loosing power, i.e. it just pull like the 5psi below 4000 is pulling hrder..... where should i begin the look.

possibilities ?

im no mechanic but i can pull stuff apart... famous expensive words, point being, the exhuast manifold looks ok, dont hear any leaks when idling, cant hear any leaks but cant tell over the whine of the car, it has always made a high pitched leak sound but it comes out of the right end of the exhuast, probably due to my small 2.5" exhaust, my stock dump is bigger.

Sounds like its mis-firing?

Do a search for missing or mis-firing or sparks or coils or coilpacks. Should come out with some answers?

Id say check sparks and coils for hairline fractures. or just check sparks and buy new splitfires :yucky: mmmm yummy. :laugh:

Also check AFM is working properly.

cleaned recently with electrical parts cleaner stuff, spray on shite you buy

It doesnt really miss fire, was fine had been driving for a while then booting it comeing onto the freeway to get up to speed and hesitation and i stopped excellerating, its fine below 4k rpm but soon as you hit the second stage boost it goes nowhere

also has 2 other issues worth noting, has unknown size deep purple injectors and has always run rich while i've owned it, also has had a swap to platinum plugs 2-3 months ago

I should have specified a bit more, aparently STOCK AS A ROCK power wise STOCK BOOST !, unless you count a muffler change, which is all, + the adjustable shocks and quick shifter she's completely stock, had no idea the injectors on s2's were deep purple, every one I have seen have been black or white and when i asked onthe forum specifically about htem was not answered, aparently too silly a question eh?

anyways

the problem has all but disapeared, it only seems to happen once the car is warm and when i mean warm HOT, aparently the misses must have used the loud pedal a fair bit on the way to pick me up cuase I had to take it to a track to heat it up enough to get it to start doing it which is did after about 20 minutes of hard running.

still sound like cracked plugs or coils ?

WIERD !!

    • Nissan/Pitwork is fine stuff. HKS is just marketing wank. I personally wouldn't do the idler if it is already new. If it looks and feels fine, it is fine. But as D says - it's cheap to add it to the job. The water pump ditto. Even more so. If it show no signs of problems, then it is nearly new - leave it.
    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
