hey hows it goin? i have a 1989 r32 4door and 2 weeks ago i went for a hills bash with a few mates, and i had a tank of caltex premium instead of the normal bp ultimate, i also had a plate blocking off the bov, i went throu 3/4 of the tank no prolemo and at the end i gave it a goot clutch kick in 2nd and at the next set of lites it started hunting really really badly, so i thugh crap, i took the bov plate out and re connected the bov, still did the same, so the next day i went to my mates and swapped the afm off his 32 still the same it goes from 1000/1100 to 2000/2100rpm. i checked all my intercooler pipes, n still the same, everybody i kno was sorta outta ideas and then a mate came up with the cas and so i went out a bought another one, marked it and swapped it, still the same, :) . so then i went down and got it put on a diagnostic computer, and the bloke said to me intake manifold leak so today i ripped apart the whole intake manifold and replaced both gasgets, and now its still doin it, any ideas?? any help would be much appreciated thankyou also when u first start it up it sits on 2grand for a few mins b4 it starts to hunt, and the throttle position sensor, if u move it forwards the revs come up to 2500 and if u move it back it starts to hunt again, im apsolutly stumped, any help or any1 i could chat to please pm me thanyou

yeah we also made up this adaptor and pumped up the cross over pipe and plenum we put it at 15psi and we could hear a small leak from the throttle position sensor, and 1 hose so i fixed it up and it still ran like shit. its leakn a bita air outta the throttle position sensor so im gonna get 1 of those. try that

    • Given by the sheer number of questions about offset, absolutely not. If you had the information formatted this way: Space from R34 GTT hub to outer arch = 100mm Space from R34 GTT inner hub to nearest suspension arm = 90mm. (making this up) Buying a wheel that was advertised as Enkei RPZ5 Diameter 18in Width 9 Distance to arch = 84mm Distance to suspension arm = 76mm 100% of people would know instantly if it fits. They would absolutely also know instantly how close it fits too, and no questions would need to be asked. You would know you would have 16mm from the guard and 14mm from the suspension arm.
    • Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was.
    • Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
    • How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?
    • Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.
