A Few Recent Problems!

[Nate85]

Hey Guys,

Not very mechanically minded so bear with me, I purchased a R33 (my first skyline which I've wanted since I was about 10 ) a few months ago, everything has been running very nicely.

However over probably the last week it feels like I've lost power, the accelerator feels heavier, when I downshift feels like the whole car is rumbling for a second or so after I've released the clutch.

Not really sure what's going on, it still drives but just doesn't feel right... no major noises or anything just the rumbling and loss of power...

One other thing I've noticed is that sometimes when reversing or lifting the clutch in first to roll start the car seems to struggle with it and wants to bounce...

Any ideas I'd appreciate it! I'll be taking her for a service asap anyway but looking for a possible diagnosis since I don't really have any mechanics that I know and trust..

Cheers!

So umm, you didn't service it when you brought it? Whatever state your in, check that specific subsection on this forum for trusted mechanics/workshops (should be stickied up the top), do yourself a favour and don't take a skyline to some random mechanic, take it to someone who knows skylines.
