when i go to accelerate from either a standing start or between gears the car hesitates, goes lean and kind of sputters a bit then goes back to normal. if i accelerate SLOWLY it doesnt do it, and when i accelerate HARD it doesnt do it, im not sure what it is. i tried checking for leaks in the vac/cooler system with no luck.

i took a vid to see if it would help identify the problem. the gauge on the left is the wideband and you can see the pressure/vac/accelerator position on the gauge on the right.. turn up your volume so you can hear what the car is doing.

well unless he has wired the wideband backwards or some crap, it's definately going lean...

It is a tough one! Maybe there's a small block in one of the injectors? Or the pump isn't getting enough voltage or something? Other then that... I was thinking a stuck throttle body but that wouldn't lean it out...

sorry, shouldve given a run down on the car

its got a vipec ecu, it does it under any load, i tried changing the tune around (the vipec has a 1-100 range) i went from 42 in the cells up to 60 and it didnt change much, im pretty sure its a mechanical issue.

My mistake...I didnt see the AFR ratio thing on the left...Definately sounds like some kind of fuel issue. Highly doubt its ignition ( although I could be wrong )....Has anything been done to the car recently ..like prior to this problem occuring ?...Maybe a vacuum line got knocked loose

Not sure about the vipec ecu but I had a similar problem on my VH41de safari running a link ecu, it turned out to be an acceleration enrichment issue.

i think you might be on to something, ill have a play around with the accel enrichment tables and see where it gets me.

this car has not been tuned yet has it?

not properly, i had it on a dyno after the engine was rebuilt by the engine builder but the new injectors and plenum havent been tuned in properly. i got it running pretty well using the auto tune and the m5, but this problem just started randomly though.

the accel enrichment didnt work. it didnt change at all. i think its something mechanical rather than the tune.

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      Engine sputter

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
