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)...

    • these guys recommended to me and supplied custom 4 inch mufflers, couldn't be happier. They will spec a muffler to your preferred level of sound and know RB's well.  https://spmufflers.com.au/
    • Yeah this used to happen to me every year and a quick call would at least raise the agreed value back up / reduce the premium, but usually both.    That said for the first time on the renewal this year our agreed values went up or stayed the same over the fleet and the premium came down so that was a nice surprise. 
    • I don't even go that hard core. I just say "how do you expect me to stay, when you increase my premium, and reduce the value of the car?"   Then play a game of shut the f**k up. Most of the time it's a computer that did the adjustment, and the people will happily change it around for you.
    • You just say that the premium increase seems particularly excessive (no pun intended) and that the value decrease seems unwarranted. You say that it's not 2005 any more, and that these days Skylines are generally owned and insured only by those that have demonstrated an ability to keep them in one piece across decades, and are therefore not the horrible risk that used to be assumed. etc.
    • Have a look at JS Performance Garage, just did a bit of work on a 32 GTR.
