well i drive a R32 1992 Nissan gts-t i got a problem with my skyline and i want to see if anyone can point me in the right directions.

the car just dies on me when slowing down after a boost. for example in main street got speed bumps inbetween everyone boosts it, so other day i took out and i boosted it and then had to slow down for speed bump. Wasnt going fast around 50 probably less. so you let foot of accelerator to put on break, but the car dies on me. is it bcos i let my foot off to fast??

how can i stop that happening as its embarrising lol

if everyone jumped off a bridge would you jump off too?

does your car have a different blow off valve (bov) than the standard one?

that is the usual problem of stalling when coming to a stop/low revs etc.

to fix it, you need a plumback bov.

if none of this makes sense, take a pic of your engine bacy and post it here..

Doctor, it hurts when I do

this ...

It's probably a problem with the AAC valve can't react fast enough to open the air way for idle control.

Don't boost it - waste of time and energy... and fuel

if its actually cutting out (as in dies completely rather than loses revs) then its your AFM, do a search for "+solder +AFM" to see how to fix it

Thats not always true, mine was stalling, put the standard bov back on and hav'nt had a problem since.

if you re-read my post you will see that i was referring the AFM fix to "cutting out" rather than "stalling",

99% of the time true "stalling" is related to BOV venting to atmosphere

The problem got really bad n my car today, could'nt even hold 100k's on the freeway, only thing i had done was fitting an airbox, i changed the afm over to a spare i have and i now have no more problems.

the only part i could see that could be opened on the old afm was where the plug is, took the screws out and gave it a wiggle and it came out, virtually no resistance considering there is 3 pins on there that should have been securely soldered inside.

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
