hey guys, have an r33 gts-t, had it for a few months now, it has a front mount, pod filter, and full exhaust, but it seems to be lacking in power, it launches when it first comes on boost, but after about 3000rpm it doesnt seem to be pulling like it should be, it and then sometimes kicks again up around 6000rpm, maybe im just bein paranoid but im sure its something, iv been reading around abit and read a post where the guy had, what seemed like a similar problem, some people mentioned it could be to do with the coils, or the cat, does this sound like that?

thanks guys

Hi.

I realise you are new and all. But a suggestion of good use is the search button.

This type of problem is common, and VERY well covered in a great amount of threads.

Just search for "rich and retard" "coils" "midrange" and you'll find heaps of information

Cheers

i had searched for coils, but i still wasnt sure if that was it, thanks for the other suggestions, i wasnt sure what else to look for.

The boost is stock, same with the fuel system. hopefully il find my answers in the searchs, thankyou.

hey mate, try getting rid of the 2 stage boost that they have as stock. it will be running 5psi up to 4800rpm then jumps up to 7 or 8psi after that. look on the DIY section of sau on how to do it. give that a go and see if that helps.

So if I may… in my own defence… that is why I gave the key search words to use to lend a hand to more information so that one may find lots more information that would be posted in this thread :rofl:

Take it to a mechanic knowledgeable with Skylines. Unless you're mechanically inclined, he will be able to sort out the issue quicker than any number of posts on here and you randomly poking around could achieve. m2c.

    • Hey guys I have a 2001 Nissan stagea vq25det, I don't have any engine lights and not really any issues running but I was curious to see if I could use my obd II scanner to find anything that was hidden and I plugged my scanner in and it just said "Low voltage cannot scan" does anyone know how to fix this or what this could be?
    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice).
