lots of people have this exact problem. Have a look at the stick thread "THIS LOW RPM ENGINE STALLING SAGA POSSIBLY SORTED"

I have heard of people wiring the pump to run at full capacity all the time, turning up the idle speed, cleaning the AFM/AAC's and many more other solutions. Some people on skylines downunder even suggest that it is air reversion back through the AFM.

My car had the exact same problem and I have virtually changed the car back to stock and it still happens (but very rarely). I changed:

Turbosmart BOV Type III to Stock

Blitz pod to Stock air box with K&N air filter

Replaced the tiny battery with something more powerful

Changed all vacuum hoses

Adjusted the idle speed to about 850 rpm

Cleaned the AFM

My car rarely stalls and I'm happy with it, except the noisy lifters but I am going to fix that.

I have found that a stall is more likely to happen when I have my lights and lots of electrical gizmos going

Aftermarket bov's will cause that too happen initially coz they have a spring tension setting and obviously isnt set to your car or boost setting blah blah, when its adjusted correctly i dont beleive this stalling is an issue. Well my personal thoughts anyway

put your stock bov back on and see if it stalls? :^)

however i *did* have this problem on my series II 33, had the stock bov on and it was never changed. no pod or anything, even stock exhaust. took it to workshop got a full retune and it was fine after that. i couldn't pull up at the lights without it stalling

      r34's love to squeal

      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.

      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?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
