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...

cars like ours fitted with power steering works off a pump. What your thinking of is the steeringlock, and thats just locks the steering wheel when theres no keys in the ignition.

Hasnt anyone driven a car being towed before??? You still have steering, you still have brakes, they just become slightly harder to use. they arent going to magically disappear when the motor shuts down..

If you did a second gear pull at wot to say 6500rpm and put the clutch in and let it return to idle will it stall? If it does the electric idle motor (forgot the actual name of it) might be failing, which is pretty common in nissans, especially sr20's. Its job is to maintain a smooth idle drop so it doesnt fall too fast and stall the motor, if it isnt working properly you'll get a problem simular to what you are describing

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!!!!

Same happened to mean going around 160 -70 the rpms just drop to low. You can fix this problem with some ECU tuning if you care that much.

When i was doing 100kmph i put mine in neutral and it stalls. It stalls when i pull up at the lights too. I have standard ecu, top mount turbo with dump pipe and no fuel upgrade as yet. I was told that I need to get a better ecu but then i read somewhere here that if i clean my aac valve that would stop the stalling problem.

hahahah... dont worry man. once in the early days i asked why ppl run different profile tyres front and rear. no, i really did.

then i realised it's based on percentage of width, yada yada yada.

edit: we should make this the 'admit how dumb you were' thread. but then i think we would already have one of those somewhere lol.

    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
