4door_Sleeper Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 sounded like it was bottoming out...happened for like 2 mins coz i kept trying to see wot happens in high revs. Do you mean t sounded like it was scraping on the ground? "bottoming out" or was it an engine noise, perhaps a boost cut? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2800912 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinistaGTR Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 maybe spark plugs aswell Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2801375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 It could have been detonating when it is hot. My other tip would be coil packs on their way out and got hot. My S15 did this for a while and it turned out to be dirty spark plugs. Mechanic was sure it was coil packs but turned out it wasn't. I would strongly suggest chucking it on a dyno to find out what is going on asap as you could blow it up quick smart if you don't.

savage GTR Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 could also be airflow meter. could be worth getting some cleaner for it. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2801831 Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Red33 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 (edited) I have trouble in the colder weather with overboosting on the standard solenoid boost control once over 5000 rpm, when it boosts too high it's does the rich & retard trick & it backfires due to overfueling too. I the hot stuff when it's warmer it's ok. I didn't have an issue until my exhaust system was fitted. Going to be getting an EBC soon Edited January 7, 2007 by JazzaR33 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2801839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage GTR Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Jazza , more than likely caused by change in back pressure from the new exhaust. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2801860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluxe Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 It could have been detonating when it is hot. Yeh true that Andrew, mine was doing the same a little while ago, It's like your hitting limits early and flames were coming out the back! I needed a tune, got one and BANG all was good! Id suggest a tune for sure! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2803719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madaz Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 i agree i belive its detonation stop driving fast when that happens it happens to me when the turbo is hot also or if i run too high a boost Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/150367-r33-revs/#findComment-2804024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pauly33GTS-t Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) i had the same issues mate, i bought my car stock with 3 inch cat back and K&N filter, i had misfiring or detonation (more likely det) at higher rev range with the turbo being boosted to 9psi. it was fine at 7 but hated 9. So I changed all the spark plugs and that helped alot, also. I heard that you need to gap your spark plugs to .6 or something like that to increase the spark for higher boost. im going to try that next along with a splitfire coil pack system from the group buys here next week. mind u today I have got my 3 inch dump pipe, hi flow cat and screamer pipe fitted, that might increase my back firing ill have to see when it happens, it back fires randomly at the moment after around 10 mins of drivin around when the exhaust gets hotter.
