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)...

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
