Hey guys so here are the technical specs

 

Rb25det series 2 neo manual

Fmic

Blitz pod

3 inch turbo back

Splitfire coil packs

 

Okay so the car runs fine for 10 mins and will come on boost fine and rev out though I only took it 5k as it was cold. This sputtering as if the traction control has come on the sound is like a limiter the same sound it makes when traction control comes on. Btw I leave traction co troll off because when it would turn on before it would cause knock and then the check engine light would come on. This problem has only occured after installing the splitfires. It happens no matter where in the rev range its just as soon as I got past vacuum and come on to positive pressure bit when it's cold it runs properly. The cars temperature gauge never comes up to halfway either I am replacing the thermostat not sure if this will fix it or if this is a coolant temp sensor.

 

If anyone has I had a similar cutting of power and popcorn sounding noise, point me in the right direction otherwise off to the shop.

So I have replaced spark plugs, have splitfires and replaced coil pack harness but whenever I put a bit of load on the car it just breaks up, I'm thinking now to do o2 sensor as I get a misfire on idle, I replaced thermostat as it never comes up to temp but it must be the coolant temp sensor. Basically whenever I give it more than a qtr throttle it sounds like the fuel cut you get when traction control would kick in.

There's no boost leak sadly, I had a boost leak and fixed it car was running fine until the splitfires went in it hold boost fine as I said will go to red line, I'm really leaning towards a dud o2 sensor as it deals with load and I have terrible fuel economy

It will drive fine when the car is completely cold and drives perfect for 10 mins im thinking between the o2 sensor and coolant tempo sensor throwing out the afr I also cleaned maf 3 weeks ago when I found the boost leak

Hey guys I think I've found the problem ive got extreme regarding from the cas, or pre ignition and why my fuel economy is so bad as well I found that a dodgy coolant temp sensor can cause this on skyline owners forum

Have you checked your sensor or just assume it is the issue?

    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
    • Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
