Sorry mate with the imformation you have given us it could be hundreds of things, anything is just a guess. I would look into the diagnostics in the computer before you take it to a mechanic, as most wont know how to do it and youll end up spending money for them to figure it out. If you dont feel comfortable doing it, just find out the procedure and give that to the mechanic, it could save you several hundred dollars in misdiagnosis. Remember an engine only needs three things to start, fuel, ignition and compression all in the correct quntities.

My Nissan Vector years ago just died also at a set of traffic light.

Could not start it after that, would not even crank.

It was the ECU.

You said you had crank but no start......

You also said there has been some work on your car recently involving you AFM's.

More than likely your tune has been reset or your plugs and or coils have some problems.

Did the car run well before this happened?

yeah the car ran perfect. the only mod was a front mount which we had the stock air box cut to fit the cooler pipes. apart from that the car was great.

Sorry. if your nissan vector wouldn't even crank, then the problem wasn't the ecu.

Another obvious thing to look for is any intercooler hose that has popped off, but im pretty surre the car would still start, it would just run really rich.

thanx again for your help everyone, ive found out that i needed a new fuel pump! bit pissed with the car yard considering i only bought the car 3 weeks ago! lucky im covered with warranty tho.

Did the car yard warn you that the Kms could quite possibly be non genuine?

na mate if you saw the car you would think different. fuel pumps go on new cars too. besides the car has done a lot of sitting round as it is 8 yrs old! they are genuine k's

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
