It's only really the aftermarket atmospheric venting bov's that can cause stalling because people just throw them on tuneuned cars. The computer see's X amount of air and fuels up accordingly. If you then went some of that air to atmosphere the engine runs rich when you lift off the accelerator pedal which can cause the engine to stall if the revs are low enough.

If you still have the stock bov and it's still plumbed back, I would be looking for something like a vaccum leak as the cause of the stalling. Does your speedo work?

Oh and don't worry about the 3L bottom end thing.. personal problem/joke :P

I really think your stalling is related to the speedo not working.

But as for checking for vaccum leaks, have a listen to try narrow it down then a can of carby cleaner helps. Spray it on the suspect area and if you hear the revs pick up slightly then you found your leak.

Go stock...or start liking man sex, to match your Blitz BOV.

Atmospheric BOVs can cause stalling, but from what Ive seen, they only do it intermittently (sp?), not every single time ?

Try and plumb it back, or get a hold of a stockie + piping, speedo is the next in line.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
