Hey everyone,

last night i was crusing around, and after a few drags and just some fast driving i noticed that when i stop at the lights (RED) my car jerks abit, not alot, but just sitting there with my foot on the brake.

Its the second time its happened to me, and never seems to happen unless i drive like that. Is there something wrong with my spark plugs? or injectors? Or is it normal?

i would love feedback guys.

cheers

mine does it too buddy.

only after hard driving though and only sometimes, not everytime i thrash. Also sometimes on long drives when it heats up quite a bit. It might be the stock coils???. a few of mine have f'd up and i have had to replace them. so i guess they are a major weak point of the r34.

Is yours auto??

Someone was telling me that from time to time a coil will drop out if it is slightly defective?? the heat affects it or something......?

but who knows...

dont you love it.

LOL

like you said it could also be the sparkies they might be fouled or something, but mine a re relatively new sparkies and it still does it. i think what we both need to do is get splitfire coils and new sparkies put them in at the same time. I have a feeling that this will fix it

mine sometimes breaks up as in misfires at 5k rpm when it is really hot as well does yours do this??

yeah, I only notice it after thrashing, but the car is running at normal temp, and everything seems fine. Cept while just idleing it does it. Weird.

Anyone else got any ideas?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
