When I hold my foot on the break to come to a complete stop, hard or soft, the car after it hits a certain amount of revs it kinda pulls the car forward as I pull up at the lights.

If I just hold the break peddle down quite hard the revs drop a fair bit and than pops back up. You feel the car being pulled a bit more forward without doing anything different. Whats the go? Lol. I have to, after I press the break paddle, loosen my foot off the peddle so the car doesnt drop in the revs. Still pulls the car forward...

Also another thing that might have something to do with that ^^^ I was driving it the other night not fast just normal and I felt it lagging pretty bad like it didnt want to idle any higher than all of a sudden, I stopped at the traffic lights like normal and pulled off from them and the car struggled to even move. I pushed the peddle all the way in than all the way out. Nothing! It moved but not very fast or even above 20km/h. It was like dying on me I swear. I was so worried cause I dont know what it was.. Its happened once before yet ive only had the car what like two weeks. I turned the car off straight after it lagged like that for about 10 minutes and it was fine but I know it wasnt normal. Hate stressing bout it :(

Well I need new bearings but no where is cheap enough for me as im struggling a bit on money... :S Does that mean anything? Do you recon the full body throttle needs a good cleaning?

Have u ever tightened the accelerater cable at all?

It was in snow like the setting haha. Maybe that had something to do with it lagging... mmm lol. and Im wondering if theres some sort of non stock system put in my car where if i just sit there in drive the car randomly tries to go forward with me just holding the break and ive noticed if i pull the steering wheel to the left or right it does the same thing where it revs up and tries to move the car forward like it wants to go somewhere but im not doing it. Really weird.... Does anyone know what it could be? Thanks

Ok, resisting the urge to make fun of you being a woman right now, I'll try to help :P

I don't really understand your description of the first issue, so I'll leave that one alone. The second issue, the lagging, sounds like a misfire. Especially if it stopped after you turned the car off and on again. So did the car sound any different? Like a WRX sort of sound? I would be checking spark plugs. Potentially coilpacks as well but that's generally associated with high rpm misfires rather than low load.

As for your last post... It doesn't sound like there is any actual issue there. Automatic cars will move as soon as you take your foot off the brake, that's the stall point of the torque converter. And turning the steering wheel in a car with power steering puts load on the engine, so the revs need to go up with it.

Of course I may have completely misinterpreted your descriptions and I'm way off lol. If you could get a video of said problems then that may help thumbsup.gif

Yes I may be a girl but I do know a bit about cars just the things I post on here im just double checking that its all good :blush:

Yes I understand that whole thing with autos its just in my last car which no wasnt a skyline but it never did anything like that. Older yes and not a drift car haha. So I talked to a mate of mine and he said its not normal for the revs to go up like it did.. Just sitting there the car tried to pull itself forward when I did absolutely nothing.. It does it sometimes.. You see the idle moving a bit to.. And I did a service on it thinking it would do something.. The car just runs better but does the same stupid shit lol. The sprak plugs were chenged, oil and coolant and filters and the coil paacks are new so no problem there.. I thought the revs doing that was normal for a skyline because i thiought it does it to help you turn corners but the whole just sitting there on the spot the car tries to go forward on its own aint normal haha

    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
