i have a r32 gtst which runs perfectly fine for the first 10 - 15 minutes of driving, but after that starts missing badly at low rpm and wont idle, also once it stalls it wont start untill its cooled down for about 5/10 minutes and runs really badly once it starts again. i think it may be the crank angle sensor or maby coils or ignitor module. if anyone could help us out it would be much appreciated. thanks!

i think it may be the crank angle sensor or maby coils or ignitor module.

HEAT=Problem - Easy stuff first - remove coil packs and pull rubber boots off carefully check carbon tips that sit on plugs are OK - (mine were all corroded so I filed them all down to even them out ) and remove and change plugs.

Also completely clean the coils and boots.

Unlikely to be Crank angle sensor I think.

Maybe Ignitor but change plugs first cause they probably have never been changed.

Hope that helps..

thanks, ill try filing down the carbon tips. theyre still the original coils and the cars done 110,000k's so i wouldnt be suprised if theyre shagged. i changed the plugs bout 2 months ago but ill check 'em anyway. the boots are pretty dirty so ill clean them up, put it all together and hope for the best, thanks for the tips!

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
