Hey guys. Ive posted before about this before. I thought i fixed my issue where i found a slit hose. my car would cut out at low revs, complete power loss then come back. Its completely stock rb20det

Ive done all my research. Ive read many forums but nothing is helping me.

I start my car go down the drive way drive off and bam at like 1-2k rpm the car starts hesitating and i cant accelerate. Its happened after ive put a dump pipe on. All connections are fine. Everyone keeps saying different things im really confused. Can anyone lead me into the right path. What should i be looking for.

It doesnt sound like a vacuum leak or coilpacks because its not missing.

Tell me about it mate. Could be anything really. I had a look at most stuff. If there were leaks or not. All seems to be fine.

Car was perfect untill i installed the dump pipe... maybe it needs a tune?

UPDATE;
I took it for a spin today. It was driving fine. No cut outs or anything. Was boosting harder than ever. I dont wanna keep driving and the next day it plays up on me. i doubt the problem fixed it self lmao

This is happening to me i have absolutely no idea why. It seems to drive fine nothing wrong then all of a sudden it cuts out its like the key has been turned off while im trying to accelerate. if im at a complete stop and it begins to do it, it sounds cammed and wil rev high then drop down to the point of almost stalling then rev back up then do the same thing. When its doing this i cant give it any accelerator at all it just bogs down, ive replaced the CAS twice, checked TPS, AFM Cleaned, checked coilpacks. I have no idea what this could be :(

    • Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this   
    • For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....
    • Oh, yes. If you connected it to the manifold your first drive would be very eventful. Very shit. Very interesting. Perhaps take a video if you feel the need to see. Terminating the breather at the top of the bellhousing is normal/stock. Some gearbox lubes (hello Redline Shockproof) like to foam up a bit and require the breather to be extended up higher, so you don't get spots of smurf jizz staining the floor under your car. Mine is thus right up behind the head. Make sure you fit a u-bend at the top so it points back downward so that dirt and schmutz has a harder time getting into it.
    • Cheers for the replies. So i don't connect it to the manifold I just run the hose high up on the firewall?
    • It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
