While getting more current or voltage to your fuel pump may have solved your problem, I belive it might be a good idea to REPLACE your Fuel Filter.

When you think about it, you probably needed that increased pressure because your filter is nearly blocked with 10 years of gunk!

I know mine was when I removed it recently, it was so bad I could not blow through it. Riiiighttt. The original filter I recon by the way it looked. Replaced it with a much larger unit to make sure much better flow.

Although my GTS4 was not stalling at low RPM, it did have fuel supply problems.

This is a cheap fix and a good idea if you dont know the history of the vehicle as most imports probably have not been maintained as well as they should be as labour is expensive in Japan.

Do it SOON!

Nowhere in my post does it say I have not changed my fuel filter in ten years!

I was assuming the people with imports that may have purchased them recently with this stalling problem may never have had the fuel filter changed when in Japan.

But I will admit I have had my car for near 7 years and relied on a workshop to do these things for me occasionaly and some times its hard to tell if what you pay for is actually done if you dont watch them do it.

I will say that the Ultra Tune in Carlton that replaced the water pump for about $400 must have been crazy after now realising what a pain it must have been.

    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.     
    • Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network. 
    • Hello. I have an a31 cefiro but since I am in Turkey we have a CA20S engine. I did some research. Then I found that I can swap with a ca18 but when I heard that it has the similar substructure as the s13. I thought I can swap with an sr20 because the sr20 was used with the s13. So can I easily swap the sr20 on my cefiro or is it difficult?
