Horrible Shudder Under Acceleration.

I just installed a solid gearbox mount, as the old one is starting to peel.

Its horrible and noisy as youd expect, however there is a serious shuddering when i accelerate.

Its almost as bad as if it was misfiring.

I think it was there before but i never felt it. I dont think its normal.

Its an R32 gtst, rb20det, manual box, single piece tailshaft, recent clutch change to exedy heavy duty, flywheel machined etc, gearbox is a bit ratty, diff is bad too.

Also just installed a braided line from clutch master to slave. There was no damper in the old line.

Just ordered the Nismo mount, but if theres a problem it might wreck that mount too. And my new engine mounts. (maybe its why all my old mounts were stuffed)

What is it? Any educated guess is welcome.

My R33 GTR is in the shop right now with shudder problem when accelerating- seems to happen most when feeding too much gas before boost comes on= more torque, then increases with revs so have to back off :(. Guys thought it may be main bearing for rear diff. or engine/gearbox mount (forget which) They put it on the dyno and front left wheel started to shudder, so diagnosis was replace whole front left CV shaft.

Fairly new tailshaft with BIG unis. Solid cradle shim thingys.

Good point Isha, it could be an axle or bearing.

It almost feels like the crankshaft, but i cant tell just by listening.

Would a tiny bit of air in the clutch line do this? it feels ok, but it did get changed just before.

      I had never actually looked into it, but aren't onboard compressors a thing in trucks?

      Anyone have this problem with their temperature gauge?

      Read the ECU for fault codes or have someone else do it. A faulty coolant temperature sender is usually listed in ECUs. If the sensor itself is not busted it can also be a bad ground connection. Or in a really unlucky case, damaged wiring.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Can't be a Futjitsubo as those are made with a flex piece and Reimax is smaller in pipe diameter. If anything it is closest to a Mines pipe, but evidently it is not an actual Mines pipe.   Classic word humor

      Alright I will try to not forget.   As GTSboy replied to you already, problem is mainly the mismatch between the actual exhaust part and the denomination in the papers. That basically just looks like tampering to a cop, if they were to check your car and notice. If it had been done right they would have clarified it to be a custom pipe and just given it a certain part number that you have to engrave or weld onto the pipe. I will definitely inquire on what to do. Changing the pipe wouldn't be my favorite solution as it costs a bunch of money and the cat was fitted with the front pipe and exhaust under the car, and if the front pipe flange does not sit in the OEM location the cat will need to be refit for any other pipe to work. It also usually doesn't need a brand name or something like that, but more something like a part number. Usually for exhaust parts, on silencers and cat units specifically, there is a badge that reads the certificate number that belongs to these exhaust parts under EU regulation. You get these numbers after you put a part or group of parts through the tedious testing according to EU vehicle legislation and they pass. You can find these "part numbers" on various parts throughout a EU vehicle. On windows, headlights, engine parts, seat belts and so on. All these parts have gone through standardized testing and acquired a so called ECE or EG Certificate that makes them legal to use by themselves in all countries that adhere to these standards. You can also not alter these parts in any way, if you do they become illegal. An example for stampings on an exterior lighting part, the people who need to know can find the documentation for this unit in a database. I do not know what all the standards and so on mean.
