R33silverS2

It has been happening before summer, as in it would happen even when the weather wasn't as hot, but summer has definately made it more noticable / frequent.

My car has problems turning over when the motor is warm. On cold start it will turn over fine and first go. IT has a bosch 040 pump in it which has been flow tested and everything appears a ok. Everytime i start the car i prime the pump for 3 seconds or however long it takes for the whine to stop, in the morings it is fine, along with starting after leaving the car for a few hours. However the problem occurs when i have been for a decent drive, then switch off the engine and come back to the car about hlf an hour or an hour later. Pump primes as per normal and the car cranks like normal but it doesn't want to start and cranks for about twice as long before the motor then tries to start and then splutters off. Turning the key again at this point and it will start no probs. This issue seemed to have arised after the bosch pump went in, so at first i was convinced it was something to do with the pump, but i have since had the pump looked at and tested and everything seems fine, that car also holds fuel pressure fine when driving. So the problem appears to be a combination of heat and time. My question is what could be causing this to happen? A shot sensor maybe? what sensors would be associated with startup? Could the fuelline be affected by heat? I'm really struggling to work this one out, cos it only happens afte the car has been driven for a bit then left for about an hour or so... Any idea's??? anyone has simular hot start issues??? thanks heaps for any help Jordan Edit: Replaced the pump and it fixed the problem, turns out the pump was the issue all along.

A good way around it is to just by some 3" alloy or steel pipe and 2 3" hose clamps and just cut a small section out of your stock intake (about 3 ribs or so) and put the metal pipe in between the now 2 sections (about 12 cms of metal pipe) this will prevent it from sucking closed.

What a beast!

23K...

ha pretty cool

any pics?

Hmm I'm gonna be staying at Portsea in the new year. Havent seen many skylines down there before, mostly x5's and cayenne turbo's... Wonder if i'll spot your ve hic cal.

wow that really would be unique! r33 GTR could look quite cool, with black v spec lip down the bottom, would be tough as. But I gotta say I'm lovin the look of the wagon with the conversion... Hmmm makes me want to consider a stag... they are much more practical...

I think he is budgeting for a rebuild at some stage, which he could still probably do with the money from the s15 with the price of 32 gtr's these days. Whether or not there will be much oney left over to pay off debts is another thing... but atleast will have the peace of mind of having a stock gtr with a freshly built motor. But yeh i think using it as a daily will seem quite different to the 2002 model s15...

I'm suprised this thread hasn't been locked, rich and retard has been covered about 1000 times and yet people are still giving false and misleading answers. Rich and Retard end of story.

grey without a doubt...

This is all very true, now I'm mad Pricks!

that sucks, I was plannnig on running my car but didn't realise it was such a rip... and $25 just to spectate, thatr is a disgrace - no wonder it wan't busy

stick with the 33. It's a newer car and will generally just give you less hassles. As others have said the old rb26 in 32's is likely to need a rebuild sooner or later and in general many parts and components show thier age. Rubber bushes start to wear out, suspension leaks, and bits and pieces which cant be avoided that have come about pureply from being old. Dont get me wrong there are some great 32 gtr's out there, which have been restored and rebuilt to mint condition and look hawt, but the owners will be the first to tell you thay spent numerous $$ getting it that way. I say keep the gtst for a bit and save for a newer GTR if you really want one. my 2 cents worth...

Happy Birthday, sounds like you made it one to remember, or not remember...

Hey some great pics, good work!

wow this must have come after i left, shame i missed it!

voucher??? voucher!!! what are these vouchers? I get no vouch... (tear)

this is too cheap, price is going into r32 teritory. Not good for r33's esp series 2 value when people expect to sell there car in a couple of weeks by taking a grand off every couple of days. the lower you go the lower people will offer you.
