Do you have any form of aftermarket CDI? eg HKS Twin power?

If it is indeed your alternator then it's not a massive job, though i've never had one fail personally its bound to go through enough wear and tear to eventually give up.

yeh but wouldnt that like turn the car off... make me loose lighting and make my headunit play up aswell??

or is there like a seperate part which runs to the ecu..

most of the times the battery light will come on, on the dash, or it will have a loud wurr to it... and the charge rate will drop to battery voltate eg. 12.6 or 12.8. if diodes are gone charge rate my be normal but untill you put lights ect on, will drop down to 13v or something... never realy seen one have any problems with supplying spark, cuz if it gets spark ecu is doing its job... how well known is your mechanic? as might be time to change... never seen an alternator do anything like what your sayen on any car.. weather it be ford, holden, nissan, subaru, mazada, ect..

i had the same symptom you have when i had my air flow meter disconnected, only as i had to get home, only with the airflow meter hooked up, it cut out and ran like shit.... my problem was that my engine was farked after it was majorly overheated but ran fine 70% of the time rb25det s2 though? dunno what yours is havent read your updates

hes just a normal mechanic down the road from me. not a specialist in imports or anything. I dont think its the alternator... i really dont, but he has one of those Snap-on error detector thingos, and its readying a problem with the signals to the ecu or sumshit... so im not to sure wats going on, if this doesnt solve it ill take it to marty when hes off holidays. Probably a good thing i changed the cam angle sensor anyway, its was sooooo f**ked haha both bearings where ceased and the disk and sensor where both f**ked.

i kno its so fkd. I havnt tried the ecu thing yet, would one from a rb25de neo be the same, i got a mate with a 34... or one from a rb20de?

are they all simular?

update: he said it is the alternator playing up... now i dont see how this would be the case, he recons it isnt giving enough to the computer or ecu, and that isnt able to support the igniter pack and all that... wtf?

i was checking ur gtr out today daz :rolleyes: cus my cars at yates automotive across the road there.

yeah, well im sure the ecu's are model specific, so i would try find somebody with an n/a RB25de r33/r32 (depends on what model your motor is) and try there ecu if u want to try that. but yeah unless you have diagnostic equipment to plug in, your just going to be guessing if its something more serious then all of the things i have described.

yeh the mechanic is using a snapon computer thing. If he cant fix it with this alternator thing he recons it is, im ganna go thru the elemination process on the smaller things, like loom, afm, so on as you said daz but then if im still lost ... ill take it to a specialist in this area.

i just spoke to my old boy then he went and saw my car today when i was at work.

the mechanic said when he disconnected the alternator... the missfire wasnt present... car went well, when he hooked it up there was a miss.. he said the alternator is working but having peaks of power. and the ecu is like wtf? and losses it for abit, that when the problem comes ... but stil im not convinced.

Also the miss gets smaller and smaller the warmer the car gets.. he redlined it today after it had been running for awhile, and there was a very minor misfire at like 6500.... when its cost it can rev over 1500-2000 without jerking around.

WTF i just wont this shit to fk off haha

ok legend... sorry i didn't know it was a spelling test/English lesson, next time ill be prepared for hilarious sarcasm.

Like 90% of the comments i see from you are all pathetic sarcastic calls mate. legend..

Just wanted to talk to you as I believe you have the same set up??? And see what your thoughts on it were. :blush:

WooHoo!!!!! I got my full open bike licence today!!!! I have been out riding for about 3 hours on my cbr600 and my ass is killing me hahaha. Awesome though.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
