I have an auto 1993 turbo R33 gtst nissan skyline that I imported. It was sitting in storage for ages (like a year or two) before I had it complied and since I've been driving it sometimes when I'm stopping and revs are low the engine cuts out completely. It will start straight back up again no worries. Sometimes after driving for a while it will start surging also. Anyway suggestions on where to start looking for the problem??

i have an auto r33 and had the same issue! two things to check. does your idle go funny when you turnthe steering wheel at really slow speeds and does your car have an aftermarket blow off valve! if it has an aftermarket blow off valve get rid of it. fixed mine straight away. makes it legal too. there is plenty of people that want to go pssssshhhh out there so its not hard to swap with someone. also if the power steering pressure switch is playing upit can cause you to stall as well. but its got to be pretty bad.

Hope this helps mate! :P

I think its a stock bov but an aftermarket exhaust it doesnt go pssssshhh. It does it at slow speeds more because its idleing so low like when I start her up to reverse or stopped at traffic lights

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
