so my car has been at the mechanic all day, cant get it to cut out at all (3x15min drives + 45min drive)

what happens? cuts out on the way home!!!!!!!!!!!

has any1 got some GTR AFMs for sale? quoted $400 for pair @ wreckers????

steve wally only has the pink stickered AFMs i need the orange.

just pulled off the AFMs they look i good nick, all wiring seems to be fine i dont have that elec tool to check voltage tho :S

about to clean them now, i did how ever find a small tear in 1 of the vacum lines going off of 1 of the blow off valves! could this be the problem????

i cant find the other end of it tho :S

could this have caused my problem????

doubtful. im no mechanic but im guessing a tear in a vac hose will just impact performance as the engine runs a negative vacuum when not on boost (depends where the tear is I think).... I had the exact same problem as you and the mechanics couldnt get it to misbehave... so I just changed the suspect afm myself to see if it was the culprit and i've never had a problem since...

    • Is it possible to get your turbo high flowed that is capable of 270kw and cap it off at 220kw for example via a boost controller?
    • I will say most technicians aren't the best, then they see a Skyline and it seems like their brains start oozing out of their ears. But actual good techs that knew what they were doing to begin with I don't see them having any issues with this car. And it doesn't attract that much attention. But if you were wondering what it's like to be an attractive woman, driving an RHD Skyline in the US is pretty much as close as it gets in terms of endless male attention. Random people will strike up conversations with you at gas stations, at mechanics, etc. List goes on. When I do alignments for any car I never leave it overnight. I bring it in same day and usually just mill around outside the shop because I can't be bothered to call a taxi to go somewhere for 30 minutes only to get another taxi back.
    • By way of parts My local Nissan had a new water pump i needed👍. But i just had to buy and new AC compressor from the US 👎. Hit and miss with parts 
    • Gas springs (ie boot/bonnet struts) will be charged up to about 200 bar. That's a bit scary. Suspension dampers will have maybe 10 bar of N2 pressure, which is just a sneeze, where I come from. Anyone drilling holes in anything, pressurised or not, without wearing safety glasses deserves swarf in the eyes.
