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

    • If it's magnetic what is stopping you from using a magnet on a thin wire from fishing it out?
    • Those 2 solenoids in that assembly I mention, are the PWM solenoids for torque converter lock-up clutch & EPC (line pressure control) ~ when most folks hear of 'solenoid failure', the tendency is to think electrical failure...but fact of the matter is, especially wrt the EPC solenoid (which is moving/running all the time), you can have an electrically 'good' solenoid, that's absolutely broken/worn out mechanically inside...ie; valve plunger return spring rubbing against spring retainer plate, lowering preload pressure.. ...and the solenoid armature extension limit spring wafer with bad wear/broken off petals... ...and if there's ever been any metal flying about, damage to the valve plunger end itself... ...the stuff one never really sees, unless you go the whole 10yards trying to answer the question "why is my line pressure screwy, but TCU isn't flagging any EPC solenoid fault?"...and carefully dissect the solenoid. Worst (and most probable) scenario is when the plate spring petals break off, they get held by the magnetic flux, get mashed up by the armature into little bits, which end up in the space between the armature & shading core bore, and things get stuck or randomly jam up, and your line pressure goes flat and doesn't change...and the TCU never sees it, as it doesn't actively monitor LP... ..then it gets into insidious land, if you end up with lower than expected line pressure...lets say high clutch..and the lower pressure causes it to slip ~ when I say 'slip', think say 2000rpm on the drive plates, and 1800rpm on the driven plates, because the slip is making them under-rotate by 200rpm ; you get all the usual nasties like heat and band/clutch wear, but even if it's only 20rpm slip the same thing happens...and... you'll hardly ever pick this up driving the thing with the torque converter active as it effectively masks these sorts of slippages that are line pressure related ...(the newer TCUs can detect clutch slip rate)...just  FYI as it were...  
    • There's nothing that some paddle pop sticks and extra cable ties can't fix.
    • Hey guys, so Golebys has good prices on Bosch injectors, and also sell an adaptor to go from 1/2 length injector to standard with the Nissan 10.5mm top seal.  Does anyone know if that adaptor is to suit the 14mm or 11mm injector tops?  And re. The bottom seal, to suit my standard RB20 intake, would I be right in saying I can just slip the 14mm square section O ring over the bottom of the new injector and done? Thanks in advance guy, Cheers, Rowdy
    • F my life. I was changing the oil on my R32 GTR today as usual and ran into a bit of a snag. I drained the oil out and was getting ready to finish the job by tightening the drain plug, however The stupid magnetic oil drain plug snapped in half, right at the magnet part. After about an hour of trying to remove it, I used a drill bit, which unfortunately pushed the magnet all the way into the pan, and just leaving the hollow threaded part of the bolt remaining. I was able to remove the hollow portion of the bolt from the oil pan with some pliers but the magnet is still in there.  So, the question is, should I drop the oil pan to get the magnet piece out, or is it okay to leave it in there? I really dont want to drop the pan, i'm about to go nuts.  PSA: Do NOT buy a BLOX magnetic drain plug. This is the one i had.    https://bloxracing.com/products/magnetic-oil-drain-plug-m12x1-25mm?variant=37131252859052&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw47i_BhBTEiwAaJfPpgti1D2JwO7TDuMpXuqeQPCuIQSAfwxpWQH5rF9MD7sm5SCZDWLR_RoC_YoQAvD_BwE
