Melb Member,need Help, S1 R33 Gtst. Will Trade Beer/money/performance bits


Recommended Posts

I AM HAVING TUNING PROBS WITH MY SERIES 1 GTST. I WOULD LIKE TO SWAP OUT SOME PARTS TO ISOLATE THIS VERY ANOYING ISSUE MY MECHANIC CAN'T WORK OUT($900 LATER). I NEED A S1 AFM, A SET OF COIL PACKS AND AN IGNITER TO TEST WITH FOR 10 MINS. I INVISAGE DRIVING TO YOURS, SWAPPING THE BITS GOING AROUND THE BLOCK AND THEN GIVING YOU HEART FELTS THANKS AND PROBABLY SOME DOLLARS/SLABS OR IF INTERESTED A WEEK OLD UAS COLD AIR INTAKE AND O2 RUSH RACE POD. BIT OF A LONG SHOT BUT I'M SURE SOME POOR BASTARD HAS BEEN IN THIS POSITION BEFORE.

THANKS GUYS

yeah if you post your problem we could give you an idea.

but first thing to check is your plug gap if your runnig over 8 psi this should be sewt to .8 mm not the default 1.1 mm.

if the idle is bad and inconsistent ie going from 1000 rpm to 2000 rpm then your afm could be the culprit.

also the coil packs and the the ignition apmlifier if the car is running rough. the crank angel sensor could be the problem if yua re loosing power over a certain boost. factory timing should be @ 15o .

nex t I would be looking for a mechanic how knows skylines cause this guy obviously doesn't .

last one is to check the cooler piping is ok.

meggala

All pipes/intercooler pressure checked , correct heat range (7)and gapped plugs, reset ecu, Manifolds checked and tightneed, turbo removed and checked. Dynoed and mixtures seem solid at 11%(S-AFC installed and waiting for tweaking). When its warm(weather wise) it will pull through the rev range smoooth and hard in all gears, when its cold(weather wise), starts missing as it pulls higher boost even in second(high boost means 10psi in my case, no where near factory cut off). AND, fuel pressure tested under load OK and boost gauge tested as well?????? I tell ya it annoying but at least I know whats NOT wrong with the buggar!!!:D

I Have the SAME Problem as this... Cold = Miss, Hot = Fine!

I Tried a BOOST Controller and its WAY Worse (even at stock boost levels) !!! I thought it might be the Ignition module not being able to handle the extra boost from cooler air???

I currently have .75mm gap which makes it drivable... but, on a 20deg day it misses under 60% > 100% Throttle (around 4500 RPM+)... on a 25+ day it does not miss a beat...

the_tonkau: if you manage to fix this PlEaSe! let me know what it was as I am in a simular position... no parts to swap... no mechanic who knows.... etc etc...

Could be a lot of things and maybe a combination of two issues but my fix was(after lots of piss farting around, a faulty ignition module that was breaking down at higher boost! Dr Drift at BMT Motorsport (www.bmtmotorsports.com.au) found the problem!

Good luck

Steve

Needless to say it is been shaming SS Commodores and the such, left right and centre since the super mega drifto tune! Hey Dr, when you putting the NoS bottle on the BMW?...haha hehe hoo hoo....Shit I'm funny.

Easy.

No, unless you made one up out of a Sultana Bran packet, but I don't think that would be a great conducter of ..........."currents"........hahahaha !! hehe

Once again...DR DRIFT @ www.bmtmotorsports.com.au" DO IT!

Nightman,

The funny 'the_tonkau' used our last igniter module, but I still have a spare AFM, CAS, coil packs, etc if you want to try and find the problem...

The most common mis-fire problem I've seen is plugs, follwed by coil packs, follwed by CAS, followed by igniter module...

Doc.

How much are all those parts to replace, Doc? I may have to visit u next time with Lucky in his Slug of a Soarer :(

I have the same problem, and only running 11psi, and getting my ass kicked @ the lights :) Definatly losing power :mad:

    • Unfortunately haven’t taken pics yet after it was finished. All the edges are hemmed nicely, just had to cut holes for the gear shifter and seat bolts and seat belt bolts in the rear. The molds seem like they’re done with steam and a layer of glue on the underside to hold a bit of shape but still soft enough that it’s a good fit when it’s all pressed down.
    • When's the rear mounted turbo kit coming? Needs dose and V8 chop idle lol.
    • I was very unimpressed with how the car came up from the A pillar forward, before I hit things (twice). It all has to go. It had to go, but now it has to go... more. So we finally found the very first Shennanigans with the entirely perfectly setup engine that had no problems being pulled apart to improve on 'was perfectly fine'. Cam bearings looked a bit... stock. Which isn't entirely bad given they were stock and this is a ~20 year old engine. So new cam bearings are on the way because it's somewhat difficult to get to this stage to do it later, and it will trash the block. It was quite unusual that it wasn't done when the perfectly new-looking VCM cam was originally installed by [unknown] What IS unusual is the cam that was installed there was advanced SIX degrees. As to why there is no way to know.. however it could have been @Dose Pipe Sutututu's mate who wanted a larger cam sound but also wanted it to come on earlier to be more usable. This is my dyno sheet with the previous setup - This cam is not supposed to peak until 7000+ RPM, according to VCM. This is what lead me down the whole 'my heads/intake setup is running out of puff and can't support the cam' line of thinking to begin with. Anyway too late now - New cam is in! It could be rather funny if this smaller cam acts like a larger cam because it isn't advanced six degrees. In the spirit of everything is working amazingly - the COMP cam required no dialling in whatsoever. It was about 0.5 degrees advanced, which seems pretty bang on. Any adjustment either way would be further out. I'm told as a chain breaks in it ends up regarding back about 0.5 a degree as the chain breaks in, making it bang on. In the spirit of everything was previously working amazingly - The timing gear that was taken out turned out to be was an N-Motion double timing chain kit, with adjustable cam gear (which is how it was 6 degrees advanced) and all looks entirely perfectly new. It also had a Torrington bearing, which was one of the reasons I ended up getting the Cloyes kit which they used in the C5R 24 hour racecar - Because I couldn't confirm what was in the engine when talking to Tony Mamo. I did believe however it was a Double chain kit of some kind... but found no supporting documentation or evidence for it.
    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
