so my car has been at the mechanic all day, cant get it to cut out at all (3x15min drives + 45min drive)

what happens? cuts out on the way home!!!!!!!!!!!

has any1 got some GTR AFMs for sale? quoted $400 for pair @ wreckers????

steve wally only has the pink stickered AFMs i need the orange.

just pulled off the AFMs they look i good nick, all wiring seems to be fine i dont have that elec tool to check voltage tho :S

about to clean them now, i did how ever find a small tear in 1 of the vacum lines going off of 1 of the blow off valves! could this be the problem????

i cant find the other end of it tho :S

could this have caused my problem????

doubtful. im no mechanic but im guessing a tear in a vac hose will just impact performance as the engine runs a negative vacuum when not on boost (depends where the tear is I think).... I had the exact same problem as you and the mechanics couldnt get it to misbehave... so I just changed the suspect afm myself to see if it was the culprit and i've never had a problem since...

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
