its been happening on and off for about a week now.

wen im driving, and accelerate, it kicks in slow, like it makes a rev noise and then kicks in later. still reaches top speed n shit, but the slow kick-in is getting really ****ing annoying!

dont have time to go to mechanic for a few days coz of work so i thought i'd ask on of ur opinions!

Try making the thread title a little more specific for starters.

Have u changed anything recently?

Is it only during hot weather/ been sitting in traffic a while? maybe ure timing is off.

When it "kicks in" is it slow and subtle or does it go clunk and then pick up the pace?

So its subtle and u cant feel it apart from the lack of power right?

Could be right about the timing belt. Did u extend piping to get the kn in? could just be too much piping making more lag. maybe u should buy a stock airbox, gradenko is selling 1 :P

That was what I was thinking. If its a manual, sounds like kr1sh has a slipping clutch. But a slipping clutch is pretty damn obvious, unless the only hint kr1sh can take is the hint of cherry in cherry coke :P.

kr1sh, threads about car problems should be posted in the Maintenance forum, not General Discussion.

The expence of a clutch kit will depend on what you go for, standard is cheaper, but if you go for a heavy duty kit, you naturally pay more.

But if you are going to race the car down the strip or around the track it's well worth the extra dollars.

    • Is it a dog or synchro box? I guess either way, if it is new and crunching in one gear only, it has to come out and go back to the shop to check/measure as there is either an assembly or manufacturing issue
    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
