Hey guys,

Well im not so good on the technical aspects of cars so was wondering if you guys could help me with my problem. My car (R33 gtst s1) is starting to react slowly. Flooring it from 1st and 2nd its fine. But when I cruise in gear and then floor it it lags. Its reading full boost but it gets like a second push after abit of lag. Is it my clutch ?

Could be clutch (very likely), but could also just be general maintenence issue like spark plugs, crap built up in pipes etc...

Could also just be the 'flat spot' in the rb25's around 4500 rpm then it'll kick back in around 6000ish.

Or could just be operator error! :P

if the clutch is slipping then the revs should rise but not your speed.

what sort of revs are you getting the lag at? is it always at a certain rpm or can it do it at any rpm? the r33's have a bit of a flat spot at 4500rpm when the VCT turns off. otherwise it could be your plugs or coils not coping that well with the sudden increase in fuel.

What gear are you cruising in?

4th / 5th?

Yeah you can floor it on 4th / 5th while cruising, but it won't be as effective as to down shift to a lower gear, like 3rd (power gear)...

      Import insurance in 2025

      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.

      I presume it would take more than just slapping a big modern catalyst on the exhaust? It's interesting though, looking at the old sales brochures and listings it does not mention anything about emissions. No one cared.

      Yeh nice, looks like their part of keep it reet? Will have to swing past. I'd much prefer someone actually look at my car and custom make a part, then get a generic part online and hope it works.
