yeh mine does the same, it would seem most do this, im just more interested in the fuel smell part, anyone here have a straight through? Rekin urs sounds pretty quite so i would assume uve got a decent exhaust on urs.

mine does that too.

i dont mind. its like a reminded not to go too fast when its cold :(

after about 1 or 2 minutes of driving. its completely fine.

hhahah oh so true mine does the same thing and it is a reminder a little, only eva does it first thing, wat about if u start ur car on a hot summer day wit hot air im pretty sure from memory it does it but alot quicker to jump to the pace,

let it warm up u dont notice shit

AAC vale cloggin its understandable to

U cold start issue i had was fixed wit a new AFM

cheers brett

got a apexi catback exhaust :P

Ive had my afm checked, o2 sensor checked, aac valve cleaned, pod filter cleaned, fuel pressure checked. Not sure what else to check? haha

There must be some common fault we seem to all be overlooking which causes this :s

Yeah i think that is the case, i dont think its a problem it seems normal. Others probably dont notice it because they warm up their car more than we obviously do. Therefore they dont experience this problem. I gurantee once winter hits this topic will be covered many times again.

I have the same deal (the cold start, have to blip the throttle once to keep it running) and the the hestitation. Mine does it at 2k if I don't let it warm all the way up (which can take like 10mins if not driving!). I figure at 2k it's just limp mode because it's still cold. I let it idle for minimum of 30 seconds before taking off and just take it easy and shift below 2k until my temp guage is at halfway then it's all fine. Usually she gets enough to as it takes me to smoke a cigarette in the morning to warmup, which barely moves the needle, then I start driving her.

P.S. This is on an RB20DET :)

mine is the same, hesitates on startup then runs like crap for a bit... i think it pings sounds like popcorn popping under the bonnet, has no power and feels like the coils are f**ked, a quick squirt in 1st or 2nd around the corner makes it go away

nisskid mine does this also, i have straight through exhaust with a "special" cat

except if you stand outside the car it burns your eyes! still seems to run fine at

normal operating temp and has been tuned so maybe just an r32 thing??

alright thats good to know, cheers.

think knock sensor.. consult shows timing going to 7 degrees and not altering while accel, then past a certain point, jumps to 20-30 degrees. suspect knock sensor problems causing the issue. at first thought it could be coolant temp sensor (causing rich run to make sluggishness) then i plugged the consult in.

i can up a file if anyone wants to see it. i am on a S13 swapped RB20. anyone with a really fresh RB20 having this problem? maybe the sensor rattled loose in the case, or theres an abnormal rattle in the motor when its cold....

oh yes, i have 2 ECU's one is chipped and tune the other is unchipped stock. both ECU do the same thing

check the thermostat...

my car used to run shit for a good ten minutes every morning, turned out the thermostat was rooted and allowing water through the radiator all the time... my piston rings were also cactus and that didn't help:/

ive run my car with 4 diff thermo's, 180's and 170's. also with no thermo at all, and also with "water restrictor" (metal with a hole in it to slow down total flow, but no thermo element)

nothing helped this problem except getting it hot faster, which would be a totally clogged radiator and a thermostat LOL

  • 4 weeks later...

just bumping this thread as i've found a temporary solution that i use now...

try this:

- start the car

- let it idle for 30sec - 1min, give it a blip of the throttle to check that its got its usual flat feel to it

- turn the car off

- immediately turn the car back on

- blip the throttle again... notice the flat feel is gone?

i was getting annoyed by having the car jerk around for a few minutes while i had passengers in it and its very annoying. this way the car drives perfect. its no excuse to stop driving sedately while the engine warms up, but it restores the dormal driving characteristics in the mean time.

must be something to do with the ECU sensing that the engine has been off for a certain period of time. thus, when the car is turned off and then on again, the ECU thinks its been on recently and uses the normal timing and fuel maps...

keen to see if it helps others... post up your results...

cheers,

Warren

well i seem to be having the same problem as everyone else...tho my car starts perfectly ever morning..but its the drives...ill be driving n as soon as it reaches around 3000rpm..it feels like its got no power...i usually just keep driving till the temp needle reach half way n its gone..that usually take around 5 to 7mins

    • Hi guys my 94 r33 gtst fuel pump has gone out. I have a walbro 525 ready to go in but am unsure if I need to upgrade the fuel tank bulk heads? Ive heard that others have issues with the stock wiring melting... Ive seen alot of people recommend this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-nissan-skyline-r33-r34-silvia-s14-s15-billet-fuel-tank-bulkhead-hat-top-an6-with-high-current-connector-apex-2-8-delphi-fpg-100?variant=42873255198898 My current pump that stopped working is aftermarket but I had no relay mod or upgraded connectors. Need some advice please. TIA
    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going.
