I would be checking your spark plugs asap. I had the same problem with my old r33 and new spark plugs fixed it.

I swapped to iridium plugs and still does it..

It sounds like your fuel pump is sending fuel as per normal, and all of your fuel is not getting burnt.... ok...so you've changed the spark plugs...perhaps your coil packs arent igniting all of the spark plugs...this is a possibility....Give the injector cleaner a go, and if that doesnt fix the problem, i would be checking those coil packs when you get a chance.

Fuel injector cleaner.

What RON petrol are you running? (I ask this because when I filled up with woolies unleaded petrol once mine did the 'bop' sound a lot).

98.. always..

Ill give the injection cleaner a go..

But it doestn seem like its a prop.. and sounds cool too.. :P

will I be gaining much if I clean the injectors out?.. well is it worth the money?

bugger me this

but the injector cleaners actually work.

guys like the good oldd saying

you pay for what you get

with our skylines, dont settle for ones that cost 10 bux

go hard

get the nulon total fuel cleaner.. 20 bux.. but they are well worth the dime.

fuel efficient back to normal

bop bop bop has decrease suffiiciently!!!!! (power increase felt straight away)

one thing though, with the fuel im using

i use unleaded.. i've read many articles, if u dont go thru ur tank in 7 days

98octance comes down tot he same as unleaded anyway..

and shutup everyone... i go through my whole tank in 4 weeks.

HEY I SAID SHUTUP!

thumps up - for injector cleaner.. and

is the 98 octance thing i said true?

thanks heaps guys

davib.

i don't know about 7 days, but high octane fuel does go stale quicker than low octane fuel. a bit like the way boiling water freezes quicker than warm water.

Err... Wrong!

Proven that boiling water DOES NOT freeze quicker then warm or cold water.

Was on one of those myth bustering shows (Could have been "Cool Science" or something)

The boiling water has a quicker drop in temperature, because of the larger difference, but the warm/cold water still freezes quicker.

that comes down to the temp of the warm/cold water, and the temp of where they are freezing it. i saw it on a program at school where they were in greenland or somewhere freezing like that and they could throw hot water in the air out of a saucepan and it was ice by the time they hit the ground but the normal water wasn't.

it is called the Mpemba Effect. and it is only under the right circumstances that it actually happens. but what people also don't take into account is that the cold water may have a frozen layer first but it may not be 100% frozen. it may still have liquid in the centre.

    • from an old insurance company i was with (Budget Direct) I had someone roll back into me at the lights got them to pull over. Got a picture of thier licence with address, had a dash cam video and, thier phone number. But only had 3rd party on the shitbox i was driving. insurance did nothing, cops wouldn't do anything due to the value of the damage (under $3000) so i just had to suck it up and go to U Pull It. 
    • Small Update on the Exhaust Situation A 200-cell cat was a bit too expensive for now, so I had the exhaust shop fabricate a new exhaust from the cat to the rear and an exhaust tip. I went this route to avoid cutting into the original exhaust and keep it intact. It’s essentially straight-piped, and the sound is noticeably different. The exhaust tip came with a silencer, so if it gets too loud, I can easily install it to tone things down slightly. Right now, the car bangs and pops like crazy -- which I personally love. In the future, I might add a resonator or a 200-cell cat, as niZmO_Man suggested, but for now, I’m really happy with how it turned out.  
    • And that's a massive problem, because deadshits will deadshit and give you false details. At least in these days of mobile cameraphones, it is trivial to take photos of any ID they are carrying at the same time as the 300 photo extensive documentation of the state of the vehicles that I recommend even for minor incidents. And you get photos of the person's face, any visible tatoos, etc etc, while you're at it. Then you try to avoid mentioning that you're fully capable of making explosives of various power levels and will wreck their shit if you are forced to hunt them down.
    • No, I don't remember the exact reasoning (was 20 years ago!) but the cops didn't end up supplying it to us either. Actually my mother went through a similar thing recently where she was hit when stationary, flustered and didn't get address (she got plate details, name, phone and insurance company, but not address). Person who hit her blocked her number and their insurance company (naturally) would not provide any details. Her insurance company also required her to pay the at fault premium because she did not have the address, cops did not help as it is a minor civil matter (they said their only course was if the other driver had left the scene of the accident without providing any details). She only ended up getting that refunded because they happened to be insured with Suncorp and she was with APIA so same company owners. For some reason the address is critical in insurance companies recovering money from the at fault party
    • If you're driving something like an R32 through to R34, no chance of meeting Euro4. Euro4 came out in 2006, and car manufacturers back then were complaining how hard it would be to meet those regulations. Not a chance a vehicle 10 years earlier is going to be compliant.
