Hey guys noticed this after a drive. If i came to a stop and was idling for a few mins the car would gently die. I was able to restart it straight away no worries.

Now it wont rev past 2000rpm, when you add more throttle it just pops as if it only had 2 running cylinders.

Eventually it will stall after idling for 5-10min.

Its a built engine with cams, gt35r, Pfc and all accompanying mods.

As of now it is undriveable and is just sitting in the garage

Ideas?

I am led to believe that this is a C.A.S issue?

Afm has been checked by my mechanic, voltage and wiring is fine.

Will definitely go over my cooler piping again. I am only running 12psi-still on run in tune so I dont think a join has popped off. I will investigate my plumbing further tomorrow.

This happened to me for no reason all I did was put on my coil pack cover and started the car and idling like on 2 cylinders and would pop when you rev it couldnt figure it what it was and then after 30min started it again and drove up and down and it was back to normal still puzzled with what it could have been.

Thought I would give you guys an update. Finally got some time to go over it today.

Due to my r34 cams I have had to use an r34 cas. I took off the plastic cover of the cas exposing the bronze disc inside. The car started and revved freely.

It appears that it was full of dust and that was restricting it.....well maybe.

Its revving fine now, it idles etc so lets hope it stays that way :)

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
