I'm a noob so bear with me. A guy I'm about to buy a car off says the stabiliser needs to be replaced, his best explanation was that "when you turn the key, electrics go through this thing" and that if you drive the car for like an hour, the engine might stop and you might not be able to start it again. He said it's below the airbox and it's like a fuse type thing ... the airbox is standard and the car is a 33 GTS-T ... what he's saying makes no sense whatsoever to me?

ANY help would be really appreciated thanks!

ships have to replace 'stabilisers' all the time - after hitting sunfish, coral reefs and such

He's having a lend of you right?

It's not one of these skyhooks jokes is it... or L-handed screwdrivers... perhaps, a polariser?

A fuse-type-thing (that the guy & you mentioned) would have a wire

The Airflow Meter has a wire

This often plays up and will need to be replaced or very carefully cleaned

Got a pic?

Even if it is the AFM, and needs to be replaced/cleaned, it's essential that you don't get gunk on it in the future eg. oil that's sprayed on pods

There are topics on this via 'Search'

    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
    • I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.      
    • Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
