Hey everybody just completed my rb25 box conversion in my rb25ed 32 4 door. Now my problem is at 5500rpm in fifth it feels like i hit a wall. It will not go any where past 5500, And im pretty sure its only WOT that it does it. Someone suggested speed limiter. Sounds logical BUT i dont have the cable hooked up ? The reason it doesnt make sense is it will bounce the limiter in the third but 4th hits the wall at around 7000 and 5th hits at 5500. I dont think its fuel as it has a good bosh 040 pump and here it whizzing and all other gears are fine. Now this problem has only just happened after the box. Therefore thats why im thinking maybe some sort of limiter is in place because of it. Related mods that may help find the problem are as follows

-FMIC

-Plugs were changed about 1000k ago

-Nistuned r32 ecu

-Bosch 040

-Apexi pod in a box

-3' straight through exhaust

-34 turbo at around 10 psi

Someone suggested just give the yellow wire the snip (53) and try but would prefer to know if anyone has ever had any experiences like this.

it could just be the speed cut, but i'd have thought that 5500rpm in 5th is above 180kmh. i'd say that you are just not making enough power to overcome the drag. you'll need a lot more power to get to redline in 5th gear. when i still had access to the runway at the local airport my r33 topped out at about 6500rpm.

but if you are getting a lower rev limit in 4th as well, then it's speed cut. my old 180sx hit the speed cut on the dyno at 7000rpm (500rpm below the rev limit)

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
