manuel or auto.

my auto did that turned out it was the fuel filter, dont ask me how that works but mine was also caused when i was turning a corner and my power steering overloaded the moter due to something to do with teh fuel. as i said it does not make sense but it stopped stalling

yea the most common issue is with the atmospheric bov as lingeringsoul stated. just put your standard plumb back bov back on or alternatively you could also get an electronic idling stabiliser kit so when you are off throttle your revs will ease down rather then completly dropping

yea it could be the BOV....i had this problem when i put a HKS super sequential in because my stock one had problems....i now have a GFB Stealth FX BOV which is fully ajustable and this fixed my stallling problems.....where i have it set to 1/4 atmo and 3/4 plumb back...if you are after a BOV i suggest the GFB is the best option if you dont have the stock one...

Put the stock BOV back on.

Thats intresting i never really had alot to do with turbo'd cars therefore still learning i would have thought the air idle motor to be faulty. Like jumed up or the ldle need ajusting. But when i think about it now a full atmosphere BOV would drop the revs quickly. Is there any other little querks i need to look out for with the r33 gtst's

Well yeah sort of..

The BOV dumps air out of the intake pipe, AFTER it's been registered by flowing past the air sensor. So when you dump air out of the intake the ECU still dumps the same amount of fuel in (expecting the air thats gone atmo, to come into the engine!). This creates the wrong air/fuel mixture, so when the revs drop to idle its not generating enough "bang" to keep the engine running on idle because its got a really rich mixture :cheers:

Oh sorry.. i missed the part where you said the car was completely stock. If there isnt an atmo BOV, then you can try cleaning your AAC valve..

There is a DIY on how to do it here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Di...nd-t110431.html

If you've got some basic tools you can do it yourself pretty easily. Often a dirty/sticky AAC valve can cause idling issues..

- clean afm

- clean aac valve

- re-set ecu

Your car shouldnt be running highly rich if its just stock!!

Unless you got exhaust and bosted it up a bit (if you still call that stock?)

Otherwise check theres no leaks in hoses etc.

Car runs fine when you drive it? Or does it hestitate while giving it some?

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
