Weird RB25DET engine issue


Recommended Posts

Hey all, hoping for some advice on what’s going on with my GTST. I recently noticed that I was leaking antifreeze from a small hose behind the motor. So I had replaced the hose and filled the antifreeze back up but now for some reason when I’m driving the car I can feel the engine kinda breaking up around 4K rpms. I also feel the cars rpms fluctuating while I’m just cruising on the highway. I thought it might’ve been because I had the a/c running but I shut it off and it still does it. Can anyone give me some technical help with what’s going on?

Hmm. If it was S1, I would have suggested that you might have upset the coil igniter by working at that end of the engine.

As is it, I would suggest that you might have upset the coil loom. You might have tired old wiring connectors that got moved. Not particularly likely though.

I have new spark plugs, splitfire coil packs, and a new coil pack loom

    • Acostal came through with a new bracket which should free up some adjustment arm and hit my target of -3.7° camber and 7° caster. (old black, New silver) fitted up and you can see how much shorter it makes the relative length of the caster rod as well as swinging it slightly to free up some misalignment in the bearing   with Caster maxed out short this is how the wheel sits on the car in the air While I was at it, I pulled the wheels off the car to inspect the suspension and noticed this lovely gash. A pity becasue these tyres, while on wear bars, would have had at least one more dry grip day in them. Have a set of AD09 to try out next which I expect will be slower than the CR-s or AR-1 were but better in the rain with a longer life?
    • Oooohhh man did not bloody know that, that's amazing thanks heaps for sharing mate, bookmarked it!
    • In case you haven't come across it, there's also https://nissan.epc-data.com/ Go by VIN or drill down into your specific model and year and it'll have references for pretty much all the OEM parts. In very similar diagrams. Linked against amayama as well for ordering. Though they can be a bit slow and can be better to search around to get the parts locally.
    • Just in case anyone finds this in the future, here's a diagram sent to me by Nissan to identify these hoses. I ended up finding them through EFI Solutions though because Nissan reckons they need to order it from Japan, with a total cost of approx $110 inc. So it as cheaper with EFI anyway. https://www.efisolutions.com.au/blow-by-hose-rb25det-r33-wc34-c34-c35 https://www.efisolutions.com.au/blow-by-rocker-cover-hose-rb25-r33-wc34-c34-c35  
    • This is an older post of mine but I just thought I should update it and explain what the problem was. Long story short the friction plates were below their service limit. New they are around 4mm, and service limit is (according to OSG) 3.5mm In addition the crank seal gasket wasn't sealing 100% anymore and that led to an oily clutch. Not sure what came first and why the clutch was worn after just 10,000km .. but all good now. OSG refresh kit via Nengun
