Here it goes again.

So basically, lately, it seems like the car in the morning simply does noo want to start, it coughs and so forht and carries on for 5 seconds, then fine, smooth as silk idle nothing. Almost like it only runs on 4 cylinders first and then all 6 come into line.

It only does this if it has been standing overnight, but lately also during the day. Once hot or anything no issues.

So so far i have done the following.

-New plugs, All good.

-Checked compression, still all 150psi eaven.

-Checked for vacume leaks, but vacume appears to be as per before, still to do more searching.

-AAC valve cleaned, and rechecked, and appears to work correctly.

-Redline fuel injector cleaner, special stuff

-Checked for head gasket, and all good.

-Put a new ECU temp sensor in, no good

-rechecked timming, and still as per before.

-cleaned air filter

-Fuel pressure and floww correct

-Spark plugs all look even and nicely coloured.

-Can was tuned 4 weeks ago, this started 2 weeks after.

Still to check AFM and fuel filter, but filter was redone 5k ago.

What i did was to reset the computer, drained all the fuel out of injectors, oped all the air bleed vents, and then restarted it the next morrning, and it still did it.

If i turn off the ecu temp sensor, it is fine, if i disconnec the AFM it is fine.

I have not checked Consults yet.

What i need to know is, how do i check the Cold start Valve and the FAST IDLE VALVE? Apparantly the skyline has these.

I am at a losssss???????

HELP.

My R32 GTR does the same, on mine I don't think its really that bad.

I put it down to old(stock) coil packs on mine, that and maybe the cold weight of the oil being to thick?

Otherwise give a respectable tuning shop a call, won't hurt to ask.

Have a a similar problem on mine, the cold start valve was adjusted to it would rev a little higher when started, which seems to help a bit. however i'd check out your afm and clean it thoroughly with "start ya bastard" or somethin similar, could just be dirty? but you have gone through most of the main things, so you must be close!

I noticed with my PFC if the load points 4-8 @ 400rpm were leaned out it would cause this stumble.

Richening them up rectified the problem OR another way around it was to dial in more injector cranking time (ms) at the relevant 'stumble' engine temperature which for mine is ~10-20degree's.

Have you tried turning off the SAFC to see if it still does it?

Mine always had a hard stumble start with the stock ecu.

PowerFC allowed me to tune it out so to speak.

I think there's definitely a problem underneath that is shared by both the R32 and R33's.

Just what is it? In my instance I have worked around it but really its just a patch up.

I'll be a little more clear. :P

Stock ecu.. Hard start stumble. Occasionally it would start nicely.

PowerFC Untuned.. A little stumble but no where near as bad as the stock ecu.

PowerFC tuned.. Hard start stumble on par witht he stock ecu. (noticed load points 4-5 @400rpm were leaned out, richening up these load points reduces the stumble)

PowerFC tuned but with my fiddling.. Cranking time increased to around 35ms.. Perfect start no stumble just vrooom. :P

From what I've seen it appears it doesn't get enough fuel. Pushing in more via the cold start cranking time sorts the stumble.

nope not yet, the thing is it never use to do it, it just progresivly got worse. like something is not working correctly, but not sure what.

same here,

When my car came fresh off the boat, it started on colds no worries and was perfect.

Then after the first couple of weeks it started to struggle and it pretty much got worse and now happens every morning.

I wonder if the r32's in Japan have the same problem?

I also heard that if you leave your car untouched for 2-3 days it will start much easier than when you start it the next morning. Another rumor i've come across :(

might wanna check the battery voltage on start up and idle charge and reving around 3500rpm could be not enough charge getting to battery

my 32 used to occasionally have a start problem i ran a 125amp cable to the battery(in the boot) and it has been good every since

voltage should be around 10-11.5 on start, 13.5-14.8 on idle and around a lilbit more on reving

it has the stock fuel pressure reg and and aftermarket one. However the reg has beenon there for 6 months with no warries, it has always worked fine. I am not sure about the priming, but tyhe fuel priming sounds thesame as it has always done.

HOWEVER, this morning the problem has seamed to iron itself out, no issues what so ever, so who knows, will see how the car goes.

ONE more thing, i notice that my car vacume is about 1-2 mm HG lower then before. I have a SPARCO guage, and did a test, and the pressure line, when you put pressure in it, doesn't hold pressure. SO basically if i pressure rise it, it bleeds off to zero slowely. So i redid the lines, and still does it. I can't hear a hiss, but was wondering if they are suppose to do that?

I don't think i have a leak, but need to check.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • 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.
