Another sucker has joined the #Staglyfe

Hi all

Long time lurker, finally a sucker and has join the #Staglyfe community. 

I was looking on most Japan Auction house over the last 4,5 months to look for an NM35 with all of this options and struggled to find one and finally found one locally which i must thanks Josh Larking for pointing me to the right direction and also letting pick on his brain almost everyday about pretty much every little issues/questions that i have ahahaha. Thanks champ!

If you've been on the forum long enough, you will recognize the car. We picked it up and drove back from Syd last Thursday, it was an awesome trip, car perform faultlessly except for a little hiccup which has been rectified, thanks to Scotty for the diagnostic and clear the CEL. 

The car is full Aero options plus all the supporting bits and bobs (thanks to Josh Geering for being kind enough to leave them all on the car despite the agreement that we had) that is enough for me to make 300kw@4wheels once i have decided which ECU to use (leaning to Link G4 at this stage). 

I will see you local stag guys out there soon and hope to be able to attend to a cruise sometime.

In the mean time, im having a little bit of an issue with stalling which i hope to get some feedback from you guys here with your wealthy staglyfe knowledge.

Car stalls at very slow speed, like parking speed sort of thing and i believe most of the time, when it comes to quick squirt then stop right down to turn so pretty much it only stalls when steering wheel is on an angle. It's either running too rich or when it comes to quick stop, engine movement create boost/vac leak (if that make sense).

Nice one, I'm very jealous. I've seen that car in person (sold Josh the rims, he's a ledge), it's awesome.

My car was also stalling in similar scenarios to what you described. The most recent stall left the check engine light on (the previous few stalls did not) so my mechanic was able to plug in and get the error code, which pointed to CAS on bank 1 (I think). My car also struggled to turn on after stalling, 5-6 seconds of cranking before it would breathe into life - is this the same as yours?

If so, I ended up replacing both sensors for $405 from a Nissan dealership (Hornsby) and I haven't had any stalling problems since.  I think there was a recall on these sensors (look for a silver circle sticker next to your VIN plate. Mine had these recalls, but still failed anyway lol).

Thanks for the input and yes, my stalls but only one crank to get her firing back and also no CEL at this stage so if this is the same as your, i'm expecting to get a CEL soon. Would you still have the part# by any chance?

Have a read of this thread and decide whether this accurately describes your issues. The part numbers are listed there as well.

Another useful thread which might point you in the right direction, pending your specifics:

    • 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.
