I saw some guys that had this problem a while ago, and were talking about changing the earth on the fuel pump. I had the same problem, and i fixed it on the weekend. Took me about half an hour, and made the car more responsive, stop it stalling after getting up it (say when i pulled up at the lights and put my foot on the clutch after a decent race). I just generally runs better too... let me know if anyone out there has this prob, and i'll tell you how to fix it.

I've got that problem, when drive a bit hard then clutch it the car just dies, sometimes the revs just go down to 200rpm then goes back up, feels like its gonna stall but doesn't.

Bloody pain in the ass, you dont know when your car is going to stall.

Would love to know how to fix this problem

i have got the same problem with my R33. I posted the thread stalling and uneven reving. I have spoken to a few ppl and they say it is the fuel pump, if so i was thinking about upgrading it with an R33 GTR pump or something similar. Would anyone be able to tell me how much a GTR pump will cost 2nd? And also if it will fit.

Ok, what you need to get hold of is, a can of good carby cleaner, and old tooth brush, a can of wd40. You prolly wont think this will work, cos its so damn easy. You need to disconnect the piping that comes from the intercooler, to the intake manifold. (I'm not a mechanic, so bare with me, dont know what the parts are called). You'll see what i mean in the picture that i attach. You need to get access to the throttle body (the bit circled in the picture). Once the pipe is detached, you'll see a butterfly machanism in there, open the throttle. Mine was so dirty, there was a black ring of filth in there, it was so bad, that the butterfly would not close properly, which i think was the cause of the problem. Spray heaps of carby cleaner in there, and scrub away witht the tooth brush. That throttle body must be sparkling clean. Also, spray some wd40 onto the spring mechanism that the accel cable is attached to. This will lube it up, and it will operate smoothly. Open and close it over and over, to make sure it is working properly. THIS IS WORTH CHECKING OUT. My car is running so much better now, its more responsive, and hasn't come close to stalling. The car will run like a pig, when you first start it, run it for about 5mins to clear out the carby cleaner.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue

      For a daily just run Akebono ceramic pads. That's what they're optimized for. Obviously don't try to run it on track or anything like that.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
