ive seen this happen. time for a tune up. your engine is not handling the thrashing well. could be a range of different things. depending on how exactly stalled. ie. as soon as rpm drop back down to idle state. or did it idle for abit then stall. EAch of these things signify different reasons and different things to check. speak to a tuner.

hey all

i hope someone ca help me solve this mystery.

the other night i decided to see how my car would go at really high speeds (now im talkin i got up to 170k) the car did well, held it togther nicely, but............i threw it into neutral to put less strain on the engine as i slowed down.........then she stalled. f*** knows why!??

Im thinking maybe it was cause she was at such high rpm????????? please help! this is so weird! cause the the highest i can go is 180 km so i dont understand why!!!!

170k,not cool would you like to see the result of 30k's over an comin un stuck

you's all act like you havnt done it before, which if you say it, i call BS

everyone does it atleast once, if there was no one aound her, no one in the car, she only put herself at risk which is just like if she where on the track

not that im saying i condone it

but just a note, you should have let the engine brake, i wouldnt clutch in/put it in neutral and then coast at those speeds, you want the engine to help you slow down.

NEVER EVER DO THAT AGAIN.....

This is what may have happened:

I don't know about R34's but in my R33, someone TOLD me that it has soemthing to do with my ecu not being able to correct the AFR with the blocking of the recirculation valve, or the unlikely event that too much air would be entering the engine, causing a stall, not sure how accurate that is.

I agree with what Eug said. Its probably something to do with such a drastic change in load.

Are you stupid? Why would you do that? What was wrong with leaving the car in gear?

Have you heard of engine braking?

Sorry its just thats a really stupid thing you did. No offence. How can you be in control of your car if it isn't running?

the ecu made the car stall because it was reading too much air for idle than normal, thus f**kin up the AFR mixture and making the car stall, my guess. ie, the ecu couldnt correct it in time.

lol eh?

... are u from ns.com. go back there if you are.

I'll explain what I meant to say when I come to grips with what I wrote.

This is in a N/A section why are people talking about turbo's in the first page, is it a turbo converted NA?

Edited by Pauly33GTS-t
The revs and the air flow into the motor drop far to fast for the ECU to keep up and causes it to stall, I'm guessing you probably have a vent to atmosphere BOV which doesn't help the situation either. Best idea just put it in fifth gear and brake.

My mistake, I got the wrong Idea from this...

CArs that do that. tend to be out of shape. Ie. need tune. clogged air filter. thrashed engine. dirty idle control circuits etc. the car should come back to idle fine. Not a big drama. but thats hwy i said 'Time for a tuneup"

Edited by silverbulletR33

but she had been tuned up only a week and a half b4 it happened. air filter was changed (pod filter), fuel injectores have been cleaned out. and a service ws done about a month ago (not even!)

anyway thanks everyone! its not something im gonna do again. its just not worth it.

you know full well that i'm not out on a personal vendetta or anything.

but i'm sorry to say no that you do not have full control of the car.

with the car stalled you have no power steering, and braking is very limited.

that aside, being in full control of the car still doesn't justify it.

i'm thinking oil pressure could be your problem? not sure, i don't know anyone else who would try/think to do something like that.

what the hell? power steering is done electronically...

turn your car power on without turning over the eninge and turn the wheel...

other then that, dont speed...

wtf ?

Anyways, My magna kind of does this. If i boot it and then throw the clutch in, the revs drop to like 200 rpm then bounce back up tp normal idle

hi ur car looks good but im so confused why would u put ur car in neutral doing 170 this is beyond me someone explain. anyway i would say that because u have put it in to neutral ur ecu is gone wtf and stalled and gotten confused and stalled. i say keep the 170 180 for the drag strip and please dont do that to ur poor car :D

but im not here to bag u out no offence intented

i had this problem while i was running a pod (only at high speeds is it a problem 80+)

i figured the AFM couldn't keep up with the rapid change in air pressure and it stalls because of that. no probs since i changed back to standard airbox

yeah i think its something to do with the massively high load on the engine, with it sucking heaps of air, then with no backpressure in the intake due to the poddy, the airflow has just stopped, or created some sort of random turbulence giving the afm an incorrect reading, causing it to over fuel/under fuel, or starve it of air.

anyway moral of story, leave car in gear :)

its all well and good people saying dont do 170 etc, but if she's in the situation where she needs to /can i.e. the track, it would be equally dangerous for the engine to just stall

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
