Hi guys, after all the great help I've had so far from this site I thought I'd get into the next thing that's been bugging me about my car. Once it's warmed up and sitting at idle it makes this weird lumpy 'ribbet' noise, maybe once per second. I'd like to find out why it does this, and 'fix' it/alter it. The douchebag who sold me the car told me 'ohhh it's just like that... cause of all the work that's done to it....'. I wasn't so naive as to believe that, but I didn't figure it was a terribly huge problem anyway.

If you could take a listen (turn your speakers up - there's no sudden loud noises, don't worry!) I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks heaps guys.

Ravi.

if its a modified engine could be anything .. maybe an aftermarket fuel pump?From what I've read they can be very noisy and I imagine it'd sound something like that. I'm sure someone else will be able to tell you something more useful :down:

Anyone else have any ideas? I also have some trouble on cold starts, if this helps at all. It starts no problems but the revs stay low and it can sometimes die, unless I step on the gas a tiny bit.

Do these factors point to AAC valve?

My car used to idle funny when one of my coil packs was starting to shit itself.

Happens every time i turn my car on too, something to do with the A/F ratio etc

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MR51MN · Posted

      Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
