Hey guys, any opinion or help would be appreciated.

This is a really weird problem and ive never had anything like this, ill take the car out first thing and it will be fine driving for 20 mins + doesnt have a problem, driving hard, driving slow, up hill, down hill doesnt matter.

But its normally the next time i take it out i have the problem.

It will start fine and drive fine but maybe 5 minutes into the drive ill just be driving along steadily at say 60km or 80km and all of a sudden it will start to misfire and almost stall but then it will be fine, then after another few minutes it will do it again and if i come to a small incline it feels like its really struggling and sometimes when i come to a stop it will just completly stop and be very hard to start, but once i get driving again it will be fine???

Mods are standard RB20, 3.5" exhaust from turbo back with high flow cat, Pod filter, FMIC, Alloy radiator, Turbo timer and thats about it.

Thans for your help mate,

UPDATE!!!

While checking my plugs ive stripped alot of things off cause im going to put my new turbo on while i do all this. Ive noticed im missing atleast 2 exhaust manifold studs and one of my vaccum lines going to the manifold has broken so will also replace all that.

Keep the ideas coming

    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
