hey, i was playin with my R32 GTS-4 the other day, and i noticed it kept turning off by itself.... it didnt seem to idle unevenly... just turned off as though id turned off the key???..

this isnt a constant problem, sometimes i start it and it'll run beautifully, then other times... turns itself off and wonnt rev over 2500.

car specs are:

RB25DET from a R33

turbosmart e-street 40 boost controller

aftermarket front mount 'cooler

absolutely any help would be fantastic as i have no idea why this is happening.

thanks

have you done anything to the car recently?, btw welcome to the forums, is it a 2 dr or 4 dr btw?

well, i crashed it 5 months ago, and only just finished fixing it 2 weeks ago, and this problem arose... im guessing it has something to do with the var sitting around for 5 months doing nothing?

btw its a 2 door

Try AFM, usually cars don't wanna rev if AFM is faulty. Probably stalled the engine from the inability to read air flow or something.

hmm, but it doesnt idle rough, and will happily sit there idling until it has a PMS fit and turns itself off.... is that normal?

thnx

- edit -

today it started stalling and stuff, but would still rev over 2500.... it'd redline actually... im thinking maybe a fuel pump? cos immediately after stalling... unless u let all the buzzing get over and done with (a pump of some sort... fuel i guess....) it will just stall straight away...

also the exhaust/cat light comes on in the dash... but the car stalls after a minute or so..... ????????

WTF???
