Hey guys,

been having this problem ever since car got inported from japan! car is completely stock apart from HKS air filter. Ive replaced AFM, ECU, plugs have been done dyno showed no problems. fuel filter replaced, cleane AAC valve, throttle position sensor and crank angle sensor have been adjusted, replacing coolant temp sensor next week to hopefully fix hard start problem but the main problems is that the car can run fine for a while then the idle will fluctuate under the 'normal idling level'. when arrivign to a stop and put the clutch in neutral and the car will idle real low and then back to normal ...this happends all the time and i think its not normal to drop that much...90% of the time it stalls. Also while driving at a constant speed whether the engine is cold or warm the car hesitates badly just like if the if the car wasnt even running almost like no fuel is going through but all that has been checked???

Im lost for ideas...any help????

Mine does it every now and then. It's only when I come to a sudden stop. I know exactly when it's going to do it as well.

Sound like you have the same issue as me and I'm pretty sure mine has to be a vacuum issue...

    • They work on really anything track related now. They do my mates r35 gtr and it's a weapon of a car.
    • I use the penrite 600f in my cars and have had no issues even at Townsville v8s when I drove that but I bled fluid end of day for just in case. Good value and a about 38-40 on sale. Use castrol srf on the supercars and no need to Bleed brakes over a race weekend. Do the 1000km with no issues. Over 120 a bottle I seen at repco. A quality brake pad is always a good starting point the ebc stuff I've seen let go after 2 sessions with heavier cars. I'd be going to a decent track pad and maybe those porsche air guides on the control arm to help with some air over the rotor. Helps on 86/brz with stock callipers.  
    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
