Hey every one,

Just wondering if any one knows whats going on. I own a R32 Gts-t only some times when im driving around my car will just stall or start dropping in and out and then will just start working again or just stall and it will take 2 or 3 times to get it started up again. What do we think it is ive been told millions of things like fuel pump,spark plugs, coil packs, air flow meter ect ect. Has this happened to any one else or does any one have any ideas.

Its not my BOV cause i have an Idle stabliser and it randomly happends not just when i depress the clutch.

Also does any one know any good work shops that could fix this problem for a half decent price.

Thanks guys.

As a guess, like mentioned either AFM, or like i had in my other turbo car the pipe to the intake manifold where the silicon hose joins to the intercooler piping (pipe on the RB20 that goes across the engine) was completely off. So check for general air leaks....if its that its an easy fix. Hope you find it soon.

Other possibity due to experience from bro's car was due to an added BOV. But that is more due to the installation and the type of BOV installed.

    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
