Hi guys,

As the title says im having some trouble with my 33 and have been for some time now.

When i was out one nite i decided to give it a bit of a fang, lit the tyres up bounced off the limiter n then lost total power.

After that the car would not idle at all, when i was slowing down and coming to a stop it just wanted to die. Also it blows heaps of blue smoke now (not 100% certain on colour but will update you all tomorrow in the light),

Well i thought it was turbo, so i pulled it out and had a look at it. Compressor wheels look fine, no dints no shaft play ncie n tight. Dump pipe, front pipe, intercooler the lot.

Then i went back and fitted everything back in, making double sure everything was connected properly especially all the hoses/pipes, also replaced dump/front pipe with BATMbl's 3" splitter, cleaned sensor screwed in dump pipe (o2 sensor?), also looked at afm (z32) n looks nice n clean.

Fired her up, idles nicely now at 1000rpm or there abouts, but still blows heaps of smoke.

I have as of tonite put in the power fc but wasnt able to start her up caus its got no bloody oil, so ill wait til tomorrow to see if this may fix it

Any idea what the problem is/could be?

Cheers in advance

Shane

I plugged in the pfc and took some fuel out and now doesnt blow any smoke, but idles like u wouldnt believe, shudders like a mofo and wont rev passed 4000rpm

so its off to mercury motorsport on tuesday to see whats the problem

Well got it back from mercury yesterday.

They had a look at everything and said the problem was that the spark plugs were only done up finger tight and there was heaps of carbon build up on them.

So they replaced them and tuned my power fc and they said it was running heaaaaps rich, now she runs nice as and dynod up at 180.2 rwkw :)

Thanks for all the help guys :P

    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
