What would it mean if a car was spitting and splitting and losing power.

On idle, it's dropping revs and almost stalling.

I checked the leads and they looked ok, but I don't gave a tool to get my plugs out it seemed to have gone walk abouts.

Checked and tighten everything I could. It's a charade btw

Can that....looks like it survived the ordeal.

I suppose you could give it a razor and it could put itself out :P

It even took the pics of your car Cara!! :)

bahahahahahahaha thats well put Pete! nice one!

but the EMU lol had to be killed, i thought it was already dead but it must have just been knocked out, my mate Dale, who lives in Renmark came to my rescue, and he unfortunatley had to kill it, i didnt see it move, but he said it nealry caused a 5 car pile up because it was trying to get on the road and a L plater slammed on the brakes and 4 cars behind him and swerve to miss him....

but on a serious note she will be picked up by my crash repairer tomorow, i was able to get in contact with him yesterday........id hate to know what a new front guard is gonna cost from nissan, i already know the headlight will cost $1800.......

if there are a fair few scratches on my door window does anyone know if they will replace that too?

Scartchs just mean they will sand back and repaint, dents that cannot be removed will mean it is to be replaced

I just love it when I organise someone to come pick the silvia up, spent the better part of this whole week negotiating prices etc, and then I'm told he will be coming last night, changes it to today and Midday, and now his phone is off.......

Its a shame because he looks to be a pretty active SAU user, not just some no name person that seen my FS thread..

FFS!!

running your gt3076 with the .7 compressor housing on your low mount manifold might have clearance problems with your engine mount

when i mounted my gt35 on my 6boost low mount manifold i had to have the engine mount machined down a bit to make it clear

Adrian as i said above^^^^^

I WARNED YOU THAT IT WILL HAVE CLEARANCE PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!

I just left a thing on your FB but I'll post here,

Ummm, every now and then my car will drop idle and bounce round for a few seconds and then idle and drive fine, then other times i'll be cruising at whatever speed/RPM and it'll do the same similar thing just drop like all power etc for a few seconds and then act and drive fine.

In my old VLCT, I experianced the same thing with my RB30ET... Could be AFM's too :\

Hmmm... odd problem indeed. If I were you I'd borrow someone else's CAS to try it out first, no point buying one only to find that wasn't the problem to begin with. Besides Nissan will charge you through the ass for one me thinks. I can get you a price if you really want

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
