As the title says, my s1 r33 rb25de is lacking power, everytime i hit the gas the car seems like its gonna stall, like lossing heaps of kick or miss fires and than takes off.

Can anyone please tell me wat speed there at at 3000rpm on every gear?

e.g:

* 1st Gear @ 3000rpm .............?

* 2nd Gear @ 3000rpm ............?

* 3rd Gear @ 3000rpm .............?

Now i know these kinda depends on wat mods you have, but yea long as i got a fair idea where i'm at. And there is nothing wrong with my speedo. :)

Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: ok guys lets just focus on the bottom end power.

regardless of what power you are making, you will still achieve the same speed in each gear at a specific rpm. power will just determine how long it takes to get there. correct me if i'm wrong.

I'm lacking power recently as well - the engine feels really choked up or something.... anyone else having similar problems?

In my car the loss of power was the coil packs not having the punch from about 3000-5000rpm. This started when it was still N/A and caused most of my dramas tuning after the turbo was put on. I replaced 5 packs to get it back to normal, and today the last of my R34 packs died so it's starting to miss again and lose power in the 3000-5000 range :D

      Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
