New Skyline Owner.......

[lukes146]

Hey all!

As of today i am the proud new owner of a 96' Black R33 GTS-T! It's FOB and i am the first Australian owner.

Its in absolutely brilliant condition bar one thing, it's idling like poo and stalling quite frequently once stopped at lights etc, it drives perfect once going though! The car compliance place i got it from said this was due to stale jap fuel in the tank but i filled it to full and it's still doing it! He also said a good long drive would sort it out...I'm at work at the moment though and will have to test that part of his advice tonight. Have you guys experienced this before? Is it overly bad? it's really annoying me and if a long drive doesn't fix it i'll be very frustrated.

Also he hooked me up with an XFORCE cat back exhaust, 3.5" piping, are these good quality?

Sounds like a boost leak to me.

If you're running an aftermarket BOV, try to plumb it back, or run a

stocky. If that doesn't help, you might have to check turbo piping for

leaks.

If that doesn't work, fuel pump might be on the way out. If that doesn't

help... get back to me, and I'll give you more things to check

Sorry guys i should have specified! Currently the engine is ENTIRELY stock, and it's only got 37,000km - genuine, so i hope the fuel pumps not gone! A boost problem sounds semi serious! i was hoping that the idle just needed to be turned up a little or something? How do i check for boost leaks?
