Hey Guys, I'm new to this and joined to see if anybody could help me. I have a skyline gtst r33 and recently it started stalling with out any reason (it's automatic trans.). Whether the engine is hot or cold or while driving it'll just stall. I went to Sinergymotor Sport and told them to do a service and check what's going on. They didn't find any ECU fault codes. Fuel pressure no fault when road tested with fuel pressure gauge. Has anything like that happened to anyone before? The shop just told me to come back when the fault becomes more regular as it only stalled twice for them and then just run perfect. After picking the car up from them it stalled on the way home while driving. I live in Oakden SA. If you can maybe recommend to see a workshop that is in the area or have any other suggestions.

No its pretty much standard.

It's either standard or not. Not pretty much standard .

Time and time again people say their cars standard, and a few pages in we find out there's something not standard about it that causes the issue.

I'm not being a dick. Are there any mods?

Sorry mate. No there isn't any mods except for a nismo exhaust.

Ok. Intermittent problems totally suck. The two things I would be looking at are the afm and the cas.

Starting with the afm clean it, Google how to.

You don't want to be buying parts at random, so ideally you could try a borrow a known working one before buying your own.

^^ as mentioned above. Give the AFM a good clean, take it for a run and see how that goes.

Also by getting Synergy to do a service, what was done as part of the servicing?

Stalling is a known issue with the BOV being blocked off, even though I have yet to experience it for myself as yet.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
