Hey guys, so the R32 GTR is:

Moving all over the rev range

Stalls if you dont give it some revs

Smells like fuel, running rich

Things Ive done but will try again,

Plugs

Coilpacks

Ignitor

Can dead AMF's or o2 sensors do this?

Does anybody have other suggestions, im unfamiliar with RB26's

Thanks in advance

atmo bov? might be causing it, that would be the most obvious thing if you have one

if your car has a stock ECU try resetting it, might help

Standard BOV and ECU has been reset a number of times

Check all pipes, you might have blown a intercooler pipe off.

Been over all of them.

should try a known working afm?

Wish I could get my hands on some easily. Would faulty AFM's fit the problem?

Really need a consult device plugged in, should be getting about 1v at idle on each AFM.. I can't see O2 sensors as the culprit, as the ECU runs closed loop while the engine is warming up.

Could be a intake manifold leak, If you have a spray that is alcohol based like brake cleaner or aerostart (WD40 should be suitable too) just spray it around the throttle body gaskets and the intake manifold gasket, if the engine responds then you've got a leak there.

How long have you had the car? and when did this start happening, was it something you did mechanically or someone that developed on its own?

AFM Voltage varies from 1-1.7V as revs quickly change from 950rpm to about 1800rpm. The AFM voltage is not stable at all and is all over the place.

I gave it a spray and I swear it did it once, but hard to tell if it was just the car reving on its own or actually sucking in through a leak.

Ran and drove the car in Japan, idled fine no real issues. Got it home and its been doing it ever since

Took the AFMs out and gave them a good clean with come AFM cleaner. Car has come slightly better and now idles on its own (just), it was defiantly part of the problem, but still hunts revs from about 1800rpm down to 950rpm but doesnt stall. It does this like clock work, consistently up and down.

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
