I'm taking it to the mechanic sometime this arvo.

Two weeks ago I had an idle/stall/jerky acceleration problem the mechanic cleaned the AFMs and it was all good... now the jerky accel thing again I read the AFM post on this forum about dry solder joints being the problem. I was about to open up the AFMs to have a go myself, but dad said his mechanic friend can have a look first... so I'll keep u guys updated hehe

I didn't trust the local mechanic so went ahead and did afew things myself. Cleaned the AFMs, opened and resoldered the joints, changed spark plugs (they had iridiums already in there doh). Ryco air filter. Still same problem.

Where the heck is the gtr battery located? lol

Took it to CRD today, man they have a tonne of skylines there! An R35 was being dyno'd the sound of that thing is SWEET!

Will keep this updated, hopefully it isnt coilpacks lol

Problem solved thanks to CRD.

Had a vacuum hose to ?regulator split causing lean running replaced.

Knock sensor gave error codes, wiring upgraded, timing reset... they power ran it on dyno and it was all clear.

A bit pricey but I am very happy with the service and will gladly give CRD my business next time.

Cheers,

fibbo.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
