Hello Guy i have a rb25det in my r31 and i have a flat spot between 4000 - 5500 rpm then it picks right back up again. now i have done a search but couldnt find what i wanted

car is running 11psi

plugs have been changed and regapped to suit more boost.

has a little miss at idle and sits around 500-600 but once around 1000rpm its fine.

stock ecu

checked timing

i am going to rev zone and putting it on a dyno in a few weeks not much they can do with a stock ecu tho.

any help on this problem would be great

Cheers Adam

The boost is the first thing to check, put that back to 8 or 9 as stated.

The other thing is to make sure ur VCT is working.. A search will bring up a few threads about testing VCT.

The problem is the stock ecu. Get a power fc or better still a mafless ecu and put it in. Dont worry about taking it to the dyno yet, its a waste of money. Put that cash toward your new computer. It will feel like a new car once the computer is in and tuned. Your car will have about 150rwkw give or take.

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
