Hey guys,

been having this problem ever since car got inported from japan! car is completely stock apart from HKS air filter. Ive replaced AFM, ECU, plugs have been done dyno showed no problems. fuel filter replaced, cleane AAC valve, throttle position sensor and crank angle sensor have been adjusted, replacing coolant temp sensor next week to hopefully fix hard start problem but the main problems is that the car can run fine for a while then the idle will fluctuate under the 'normal idling level'. when arrivign to a stop and put the clutch in neutral and the car will idle real low and then back to normal ...this happends all the time and i think its not normal to drop that much...90% of the time it stalls. Also while driving at a constant speed whether the engine is cold or warm the car hesitates badly just like if the if the car wasnt even running almost like no fuel is going through but all that has been checked???

Im lost for ideas...any help????

Mine does it every now and then. It's only when I come to a sudden stop. I know exactly when it's going to do it as well.

Sound like you have the same issue as me and I'm pretty sure mine has to be a vacuum issue...

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
