hey guys

i have a new problem

- when i stop at lights or slow right down to do a U turn or something it will just stall/turn off every now and then not all the time but is more occuring as i got it home

- in boost its rough and jerky? like its not boosting right or something?

i cant see any vaccum leaks it has a aftermarket wold 3d v4 computer in it could this be causing any of these problems?

i had the blow off valve come off its housing the other day if thats of any help but i really need help i have no idea ive only had this car since thursday

even a list of things it coudl be would be helpful

any help is good thanks

Josh

Stock BOV? If not, its not plumb back is it?

Either way, I think you definitely have a boost leak, especially if your BOV came off its housing... (Can you supply more info here?).

it still starts tho and the BOV is still on

as u may or may not know i had the BOV come off on me so it could be leaking thruogh that?

basicly if i pull that loud shit BOV off and put a standard one on i might fix all my issues. Is that what ur saying?

the bov seems pritty tight on there and it wasn't acting like this before i blew it off the housing?

does the boost leak explain why it randomly stalls in idle and when left idleing it may just stall every now and then after a while

when i turned it back one once or twice it just stalle straight away then i turned it bck on and it came close to stalling twice before returning to normal idle? (has done that twice, once with only me and once when showing my bro my issues after gettng him out of bed to drive to my house and have a look lol)

its GFB BOV and yea it is venting to the atmosphere (not plumb back)

what other info do u need to give a better idea on things?

(off to bed will check topic in morning for updates)

How much boost you running? when I hit 15-16psi My standard fuel pump does not like it. and jerks me around and I lose complete power. also makes me look stupid, so I envested in turnning the boost down a tad. :mellow:

It sounds like you've a got a leak somewhere mate. When there's a leak, it would be harder for the car to idle properly after start-up and it would stall when you slow down(to do a U-turn for example).

gonna change the BOV

just buoght the brand new turbo smart dual port BOV and the adaptor plate for a R32 and the plumb back port needed to be taken off and a plate they have put over it so i undo 3 of the screws and the 4th one was really really tight... that tight the head snaped off the screw :( cant take it back till thursday night cus of work.

but if that doesn't fix my issues i dunno i cant see where it could be leaking? ive looked at all the pipes couldn't find anywhere with a cut or nick or anything everything seems nice and tight

its not the blow of valve

how can the bov make a car stall at a high vacuum idle

look at it this way a petrol engine creates vacuum between the throttle butterfly and the valves, now seeing that the bov isnt between the throttle butterfly and the valves how can it be a faulty bov

possibly the vac line to it but its fine and no holes in it.

he has gone out and spent 500 odd $ on a bov he dosnt need because he had people posting that didnt know what they were on about

if you dont understand what is going on DONT POST

Could be inlet gasket on the plenum or leaking injector,

Check by spraying carb cleaner around plenum / injectors and see if the engine revs build / drop.

Standard gaskets on the inlet are renowmed for leaking, put metal ones on :domokun: Or you will be doing it again.

mine has the exact same problem, i checked it out and found a broken fitting connecting the bov to the vacuum line, so i replaced it with a new bov and started it up and left it idling for a few minutes then took it for a drive and 30 minutes later its doing the same thing again, boost is realy jerky and it feels like there is no power. chews fuel real bad too. ??? :down: . my new bov is a hks super sqv so its not like its something cheap from supercrap

it has a aftermarket wold 3d v4 computer in it

In a map sensor application it doesn't matter if it's plumbed back or atmo as there is no air flow meter. The ecu uses the TPS and map sensor as it's primary inputs. dumping air out on gear changes doesn't matter to it.

For todd, the bov issue referred to by the rest of the clowns in this thread is caused by the extra fuel that is being put into the cylinder as a result of the atmo bov dumping metered air in an afm equiped situation. basically, air comes in afm say's you have x amount of air, ecu says ok, i'll put in y amount of fuel, bov dumps most of the air, super rich stall inducing mixtures.

On to the problem(s);

I think you have 2 separate issues, 1) the return to idle tune is up to shit and needs to be looked at. As with the bov, a vacuum leak in this situation won't cause you to stall. I'd suggest going to see a tuner who is familiar with this type of ecu and get him to take the car for a drive and see for himself. If it's stalling some of the time, i expect it is overshooting the idle revs on decel all the time and dropping to 3-400 regularly which it shouldn't do either. 2) the surging on acceleration is possibly coils, possibly a dodgy highflow (i don't know what sort of turbo you have), possibly dying fuel pump. Again, if you go and see a tuner and get the car run up on the dyno you can check for fuel, you can hear compressor surge, you can hear and see missfires.

ur all wrong!!!

if u eva need help just take it to someone who knows there shit dont waste ya time with this they wont charge u for a little advice

vac leak? boost leak? nope

tune + spark plugs = all good

still has a little crazy idle but that is gonna get looked at at a later date as its no longer stalling and he said it is now good to go come back in a few weeks if the idle is still over correcting itself so much

most likly the little motor that controls it because he said he knows its now nothing to do with tune

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
