Engine or trans jumping?

[Rayyan_de1]

Hey Guys,

I’m a completely new owner to a ’96 Legnum VR4 (PFL) and I bumped into an issue on my drive today.

I was doing a little spirited driving down a straight with my foot pretty much to the floor, everything was absolutely fine until I hit about 110 where the car felt like it slipped or jumped. It was speeding up but a sudden jolt where it slowed down and then kept going. I have no clue at all what this could be. I just had my transmission fluid changed so I’m not sure if it is actually the transmission slipping. I wasn’t watching the tachometer but the revs didn’t go up or anything they kinda stayed the same.

My motor mounts are a little worn on the transmission side which causes vibrations in the cabin sometimes, which I thought might have an effect but it doesn’t explain the loss of power for the split second. I’m praying it isn’t something to do with the turbos themselves cos I’m too broke for that right now :/

help me pls!!

When you got the fluid changed, do you know what was put in?

Sounds like a fuel cut does it have some form of aftermarket boost controller installed

It was Motul Full Syntehic Multi vehicle ATF I think but I’ll double check

The service was done at Tokyo motorsports just cause I know they’ve worked on galants and legnums before

Not a boost controller but it’s got an aftermarket turbo timer installed but idk if that would have any effect. It’s a blitz one that’s been on the car since it was imported in 2000 from what the guy told me.
