Hi, new here, like the site, very informative.

I know many here are RB25 owners, but wouldn't mind giving it a shot. Any ideas are welcome.

I bought my GT-R two years ago, in almost stock condition (bar the exhaust). Beautiful car inside and out, everything was pristine, except for this bogging that existed.

The car would start, then all of a sudden stall. Give it gas, and it will not rev, even on the move. I can be driving along, and all of a sudden, it will hit a wall. Keep adding gas, it will struggle, burbling along, and when I pull it to a stop, it will stall.

The mechanics found a pool of engine oil in the stock airbox, which was cleaned. I changed the AFM's, and the problem still persists. Then did two things: a) cleaned out the fuel filter, and B) added an ARC oil catch. A few days later, the problems were gone, and the car's been running excellent since then, with zero problems.

So okay, fast forward till today. The car's been through some minor changes to the engine, including the addition of a oil cooler, HKS DD intakes, Koyo radiator, replaced the rocker panel seal, Denso 0.4 mm iridium plugs, and EVC V boost control. It's been running in this config for a while now, no problems whatsoever.

Decided to change the oil today. Been using 15w60 FK Massimo oil for the last change. Gave it a try, and decided that the oil pressure was too high. So went instead for Redline 10w40. Before the FK, I've been using Redline 15w50 exclusively. So 10w40 really shouldn't be a problem.

To get rid of the excess oil in the cooler, we used high pressure air into the oil cooler assembly (where the oil filter is) and pumped out the residual oil in the cooler.

Okay, so started the car, and it stalls. Thought it wasn't a big problem. Then kept driving, and the car keeps bogging down and stalling. First it was for a few minutes at a time, then it's narrowed down to a few seconds. Press the gas, car does not go, revs erratically, and when I let the gas go, it stalls.

So that's the story. Any ideas?

    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
