R33 At 5500rpm In 2nd Gear

[vinnie32GTS4]

hey all my mates got a 1993 r33 and it stock as a rock lol

however he has got a lil problem with it.

when in second gear and u hit around 5500rpm there is a lil jolt.

its hard to explain but it feels like it looses power for a split second and then goes back to normal

has anyone experienced this?

does any one know what it might be?

Thanks

btw i was maybe thinking it might be the afm or maybe sparkies..but i dunno???

[tom9999]

[D-limo]

Is it auto?

[vinnie32GTS4]

checked the plugs and they r fine

nah its a manual.

[R33 S2]

coils?

[Hillzy]

bunged 02?

[vinnie32GTS4]

could be that..how do u check the coils to see if they r buggered or not??

its wierd coz it only happens in 2nd gear and only at around 5500rpm

[vinnie32GTS4]

bunged 02?

how do ya check if its stuffed??

[Hillzy]

i think it screws out or something... i don't really know because i've never tried. Although because it only happens in second i doubt it'd be that. it's an odd one for sure... hmm be interested to know the outcome.

[vinnie32GTS4]

yer i dunno what it is..i thought at first either plugs or the afm is dirty

i'll let yas know what is wrong with it when we find the problem

[GTR32GUS]

Are u sure it only happens in 2nd

[vinnie32GTS4]

Are u sure it only happens in 2nd

yeh 100%

i drove it the other day to see what it was and only in 2nd

It sounds like your coils but it should be doing it in all gears , a stuff O2 sensor u normally have bad drivability off boost not on boost

yer its an odd 1

might check the coils this week..is there anything i should be looking when checking the coils that would be causing this problem???

[GTR32GUS]

Little burn marks on the coils they might only be pin-hole burn marks as well

This is all over the forum this problem Thats how my car is too, It be the coil pake iam in the middle of it gettin fixed now.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

+1 coils...

gap plugs (mine are on .6) and get new coil pack... should be all gears (although mine was worst in 2nd)

I had the same problem but that was because i up'd the boost, i regapped my plugs to 0.8 and it runs great, although if your running stock boost its likely to be the coilpacks

+ 2 i got this problem fixed earlier this week it was coils - splitfires did the trick nicely
