Hey guys, I have a mate who have a R32 GTR and something happen!

He was driving on first gear and floor the accelator until around 5-6 thousand RPM and he heard a "Pop" sound and the engine lost power not able to rev above 3000rpm and soon after his car stall. When he try starting, the engine does start but doesn't last long.

When trying to start after that, we saw black smoke from the exhaust.

Got a tow truck instead to tow it back home.

So we know that something has crack. But we do not know what exactly is it?

Does anyone have the same incident? Does anyone knows what really went wrong?

Exhaust manifold crack???

Engine Blow? ( I hope not...but if engine was to blow, smoke will be out. but there isn't any smoke from the engine)

what we know is that the exhaust is shooting out black smoke when we try to start the car with some depression on the accelator.

Need some ideas and experience suggestions.

Cheers.

Guys, my mate has got it check and the car can idle without stalling only when he pull out the 2 switches that are attached to the AFM.

And the car goes into lean mode i suppose. cant rev above 2.5 thousand RPM.

Any ideas????

Electronics problem?

Replace AFM?

or what?

Need help seriously. haha...

Cheers.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
