R33 Problem!


Recommended Posts

hey, my r33 gts (auto at the moment) is being weird. when i start it up when its cold and drive it pretty much straight away its REALLY slow in 1st gear, then when it changed to 2nd its normal. its like not enuff power is getting to the wheels or something. it doesnt rev up as quick as it wud if it was warmed up either. im guessing maybe fuel filter is jst really blocked. or fuel pumps out the window. it also has a weird idle problem, where it bounces quite violently between 700-1000 rpm when its cold, or when i go for a drive, then turn it off, then back on. it only does it for a few seconds so i dont think its a vaccum leak. any help would be great! thanks!

let the car warm up (5 or more mins) ???

:D

I use to be of the same opinion, but i have been advised otherwise by various people.

Let it warm for 20sec, then drive easily/slowly for 5-10mins

yer i usually do, just the odd time im in a hurry lol. when i warm it up its fine, no problems.

im thinking for the idle problem, maybe fuel filter? im changing that next week anyway. maybe fuel pump or filter for the other problem too? like not enough fuel getting to the engine quick enuff. or even the oils too heavy for the cold? i dont know. lol never heard of anything like this.

with breather filters. they connect straight on to the rocker cover ay? rb25de.

cheers guys

once you have started your car, let it warm for no longer than a minute. then drive it slowly untill the temp gauge is normal. Not a good idea to be booting/red lining it when cold!

    • Two golds! Struggled to get silver on Gran Valley.
    • Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S
    • I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily  
    • Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.
    • I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).
