  1. lots of people have this exact problem. Have a look at the stick thread "THIS LOW RPM ENGINE STALLING SAGA POSSIBLY SORTED"

    I have heard of people wiring the pump to run at full capacity all the time, turning up the idle speed, cleaning the AFM/AAC's and many more other solutions. Some people on skylines downunder even suggest that it is air reversion back through the AFM.

    My car had the exact same problem and I have virtually changed the car back to stock and it still happens (but very rarely). I changed:

    Turbosmart BOV Type III to Stock

    Blitz pod to Stock air box with K&N air filter

    Replaced the tiny battery with something more powerful

    Changed all vacuum hoses

    Adjusted the idle speed to about 850 rpm

    Cleaned the AFM

    My car rarely stalls and I'm happy with it, except the noisy lifters but I am going to fix that.

    I have found that a stall is more likely to happen when I have my lights and lots of electrical gizmos going

  2. Hello all,

    Just wanted to start a thread where Performance Workshops (or those who know) can list there contact details and such. There are many threads throughout which list numerous workshops, but I wanted to consolidate this info into the one thread for easy access. I am personally in Vic and would like to see heaps of Vic workshops but all are welcome.

    If required a moderator can regulate this thread to keep it to just name of workshop and contact details (including address and contact person).

    Anyway I hope this all helps.

  3. In simple terms water injection is another way to prevent detonation, as the water is injected into the manifold, it evaporates reducing the temperature of the air entering the engine.

    Be careful about the amount of water you pump into the motor, too much can lead to severe problems.

    But it is a cheap and effective solution, but it does mean you need to continually fill the water.

    Have a look at
