well i drive a R32 1992 Nissan gts-t i got a problem with my skyline and i want to see if anyone can point me in the right directions.

the car just dies on me when slowing down after a boost. for example in main street got speed bumps inbetween everyone boosts it, so other day i took out and i boosted it and then had to slow down for speed bump. Wasnt going fast around 50 probably less. so you let foot of accelerator to put on break, but the car dies on me. is it bcos i let my foot off to fast??

how can i stop that happening as its embarrising lol

if everyone jumped off a bridge would you jump off too?

does your car have a different blow off valve (bov) than the standard one?

that is the usual problem of stalling when coming to a stop/low revs etc.

to fix it, you need a plumback bov.

if none of this makes sense, take a pic of your engine bacy and post it here..

Doctor, it hurts when I do

this ...

It's probably a problem with the AAC valve can't react fast enough to open the air way for idle control.

Don't boost it - waste of time and energy... and fuel

if its actually cutting out (as in dies completely rather than loses revs) then its your AFM, do a search for "+solder +AFM" to see how to fix it

Thats not always true, mine was stalling, put the standard bov back on and hav'nt had a problem since.

if you re-read my post you will see that i was referring the AFM fix to "cutting out" rather than "stalling",

99% of the time true "stalling" is related to BOV venting to atmosphere

The problem got really bad n my car today, could'nt even hold 100k's on the freeway, only thing i had done was fitting an airbox, i changed the afm over to a spare i have and i now have no more problems.

the only part i could see that could be opened on the old afm was where the plug is, took the screws out and gave it a wiggle and it came out, virtually no resistance considering there is 3 pins on there that should have been securely soldered inside.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
