Hi Guys,

Just trying to get some background on Nismo in Sunshine on McIntyre Road.

Im getting my car checked out and have it booked in tomorrow because my car is stalling on me

and seems to be once its heated up, if i short shift and not let the air filter suck in air it doesnt do it, once

i give it a tad it plays up so i thought ill take it there as i got my fmic and 2nd hand rb20det from them, they seemed pretty good.

Has anyone gone there or know if there reliable, im mr paranoid about my car due to what ive done to it, mods and things like that.

Any feedback would be appreciated, ive read the forums about the poor bloke whos car was stolen and read there actualli called nismA but they give stickers after servicing which says nismo and answer as nismo and so forth, whats the deal there? im getting paranoid about taking it there now.

Thanks GUys, stay safe! :D

If you don't feel confident about leaving your car there, simple solution.. don't take it there.

There's plenty of other workshops that can have a look at that if you can't find an answer on the forum.. and believe me 'stalling' has been covered heaps of times and it's in the workshop manual as well. Just depends on the symptoms but it's usually 1 of about 5 things off the top of my head.

kaz thats what i was thinkn too but im trying to find a good mechanic who i can constantly take my car to to get modded and fixed when it needs fixing.

chasers workshop ive heard good things about and i know ppl who know ppl der and have recommended it.

are you aware of some good places? all i want to do is take it sumwhere, they tell me the problem and ill fix it myself, because no point being charged hundreds in getting them to do it when i can do it myself ya gets?

its just that story about the guy who had his car stolen has been on my mind heaps.

David, just sent you a PM, I too live in Delahey :D

Look at their stickers, the "o" is a turbo, that is used to disguise the "a". For copywrite purposes, they have to use Nisma.

i bloody knew it, after reading the story i looked and thought hang on they could get away with saying thats an "A" funny enough the whitepages is Nismo, they answer Nismo.

When i first went there this guy called Fred who i presume owns it said he worked in Japan for Nismo for 10 years and is affiliated with them, he seemed really really nice, i had no issues with them.

But ive never heard anyone recommend them and now that i no this nismA story i dont trust em.

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
