nah still sounds fine when i put it in 1 it revs over 2000 and runs fine and when i put it back in drive it goes good again just no idea when i stop completey then take off again in drive it just like dies and accerlates so shit drove all day and was fine then got back in 2 go home then this happened so dunno didnt thrash it or anythin either so yeh dunno and theres nothin leaking

umm usually if a code has been loggeed the check engine light will come on... there are some threads on here on how to check fault codes urselfff if your not to handy with that sort of stuff (its preety straight forward) the hardest bit is reading the codes lol... u cud get nissan to scan it for you and any fault codes that are logged will be found and the u can find a guide as to what each code number means somewhere on here... for example code 21 is ignition circuit i think (just as an example)

have a search around these threads but as i said usually if thers a fault code... the check engine light will come on man

going to try check fault codes tomorrow morning but for easy reading what is happening is

Engine light is on

when stoped in D (Drive) when accelerate starts going reallly slow from 1000-2000 revs

When i put it in 1st accelerated as it normaly did and works fine

After accelerating in 1st i change it back to Drive and it works fine above 2000 revs and accelerates normal again.

On a hill stoped in drive when i go 2 take off it just revs and i don't move at all just sits there inless i put it in 1st i take off normal.

After cruising in drive when going up a hill at 60 it starts loosing power and drops to like 20 kms even tho i was accelerating just revs and just keeps going slower..

yeah man definatley something wrong.. as long as that engine light come on then you shouldnt have much problem with finding out what it exactly is if you can read the fault codes properly...

let us know when u get the fault codes mate :blink:

hey man took it for a drive 2 day engine light not on and it done it once then car has been fine for rest of the day so :S but leakin a bit of clear water /maybe rain water was raining other day off the firewall but seems 2 be going fine again

yeah it wont hurt thanks for help tho drove it a bit tonight and worked perfect again some water driped out off it when i was parked on a hill so maybe some water got into some electrics or something no idea but its working fine again

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
