hey guys ive got a 32gtr and its been playing up recently and im not sure if its just one problem or more..

the car stalls often at idle or when i clutch in, and when driving it will lose power at around 2500rpm.. if i change gears and continue to drive then its fine until i stop.. when i stop, i constantly blip the throttle to keep it alive.

now i think its an intercooler hose leak, ive patched up one already but it still does this..

recently i got my boost controller removed, and now the car sounds like a wrx.. ive already checked my coil packs(replaced them, thanks to bnr#, Serg) and spark plugs and seem to be in working order..

my muffler seems to be very hot aswell, i can feel lots of heat radiating from it after the engine is off, my hand is about 5cm away from the exhaust and it feels like i have my hand over a boiling pot of water.. i put my hand in front of the exhaust when it was running and my hands went black pretty quick. i understand this is because my car is running rich, is this causing my car to stall? also what is it that is making the car run rich?

any help would be great guys... car has been off the road for too long :D

if it's gone from sounding like a sexy inline-6 to sounding like a dogshit flat-4, you must have a serious ignition problem.

take it to a qualified auto sparky a.s.a.p

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
