to begin i have a r3 s2 (auto, 103000k on the spedo)

the problem is when it have the car in gear and come to a corner with the brakes on the cars starts to run rough (close to stalling). I have taken it to a couple of the local mechanics to get it solved but with no luck. (live in a small country town not much here)

The car has been serviced every 5000k,

list of parts that have been changed so far are

O2 sensor

fuel filter

spark plugs

coil packs

afm

fuel pump (bosch 040)

Auto was serviced at 100000k

timing belt (gates)

tensioners

all fan belts

as you can see it is starting to become a bit of a spend on all these parts

If anyone has any possible ideas it would really help out.

took the car to the local nissan shop today, They had told me last week that they could look at the car and see what the problem might be. Guess what. They refused to look at the car at all and said i would be on my own in fixing this problem. His reason was that he was worried that they would not be able to find out what it might be and that they were happy to take my money and not fix it. (they have seen the car before, he nows what it is and has ordered parts for it before) Dumb shits.

anyone please,

can you help

check the basics?

when did the problem occur?

whats changed since it started happening?

assume stock bov and intake setup? confirm? yes/no

assume standard boost? confirm yes/no

have you tried ECU reset?

have you checked idle RPM (sticker on bonnet identifies target idle RPM)

have you checked timing with timing light

the common basics will likely resolve this issue

it sounds like its stalling may even be auto box related

has that been checked since the auto box service?

    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
