Guys, Ive read about 50 pages of stalling problems on this Forum and ive found no help at all.

My cars running very rough and idles like a drag car. When foot is down, car powers fine, doesnt lose any power drives normally. Car is a Series II R33.

I have, changed fuel filter, spark plugs, checked coils, cleaned out Air flow meter/plug but still it does this.

This happend out of the blue, my fuel tank was on empty at the time. I have a brand new Walbro fuel pump. I have a Remapped ECU.

The funny thing is, after I did this, for a while the car Idled fine, especially after I gave it a booting. Then out of the blue it would idle bad. Boot it again, and same story. Today while driving it, it was constantly idling bad. Like a drag car. Its not the same noise when a cylinder has dropped, but just like a lumpy cam and at times like rotational idle.

Im really stressed out over this. Does anyone have any suggestions. Could anyone possibly give me a hand?

Could the AFM or Crank angle sensor be the culprits? What about O2 sensor, how can I get this checked.

Regards

Kim

id b goin for an adjustable one, u can buy them anywhere pretty much

the reason being its putting in more fuel than b4 when u had the stock fuel pump. over fueling a lil on idle

thats what im assuming the problem is. ive heard of a few others with the same problem

if the crank angle sensor is borked i dont think the engine starts. if the afm is dirty it could be giving some screwy results, a quick check of a datalog using the standard consult connector/cable work reveal this. 02 sensor wont affect idle and is used for fuel economy feedback only.

i have a spare series 2 manual ecu and the stock data cable which may help you diag it more if you would like to borrow them/it.

let me know if you would me to help or you would like to borrow them. im in tullamarine / gladstone park. im home wednesday if that helps

nah kaz if there wasnt enough fuel on idle it would still ping. mine was overfuelling it it was doggy n would studder

broken afm would mean the car wouldnt move n only revs to 2500rpm (ive broken my afm b4)

doesn't move? Try having a faulty afm and having it stall on freeways at 100km/hr. A faulty AFM does not (only) mean the car doesn't move.

Also when my idle was hunting it was because it was running too lean

Anyway we have a consult plug here also if you want to come and hook it up.

Cheers,

Kaz

Hi guys

Ive had the Fuel pump for the last 8 months now, so absolutely nothing has changed on the car.

Paul that would be much appreciated, I will give the stock ECU a crack to see if its the problem, if not then ill get it on the Consult and have a look.

I have a feeling it is the Air flow meter.

i doubt it would be the fuel reg... putting in a new fuel pump shouldn't change the fuel pressure in the rail at all as the FPR is set to a certain pressure. it would just mean that the fuel is recirculating through the system quicker than before if the pump is pumping harder.

does it seem to be running really rich? any extra smoke or anything on idle or when u boot it? definately sounds like a sensory problem. if i can get some time at all i'll let ya swap over my afm to see if thats the problem. but i'll be flat out the next few days though.

Julzy thanks for the offer might have to take u up on that, where are you located?

Question though, are Series I and II air flow meters the same? I know S IIs ones have a pink label and S I has a green label. Any differences?

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
