actually erin I was having a similar problem with mine a while ago couldn't figure out what it was. At the top of third full throttle it was as if it was misfiring. Never did figure out what it was. Still has that screaming sound though. Meh I'll get it fixed eventually.

Charly, I'll let you know what's wrong with mine. I'm hoping it's somehting simple like the fuel being changed. My car never liked running on ultimate in the first place. But i thought I'd try it again. Someone did mention water being in the fuel? or the TPS being sticky. It seems to be ok on WOT, it's just when you are cruising along that it chucks a spaz. It's really annoying me. Feels like I'm actually driving a tractor now.

erin,

my 33's got nothing on my old ca18det silvia for faults. That thing was fu(ked as. It would stall if I ran the aircon. Yes stall driving along at 60kph. I only had it for 10 months and the list of stuff that screwed up on that car was as long as my arm.

My favorite was when the sunroof got jammed open when it was pouring. Sooooo not funny.

I figured the car stuttering thing was my clutch going. might have just been some dodgy fuel as there is nothing wrong with my clutch.

it's been ages since I got on here and whored. The only reason I'm on here is that I really can't be bothered doing any work and I have to wait until at least 6pm before leaving work.

On the upside all the stock I was waiting on has come in this week. Woot.

Sinbad stalls at sets of lights when coming to a stop. The revs just drop and keep dropping till it's stalled.  

Somethings seriously wrong here.

:confused: Mine had that problem but I had the stock ecu and a (totally rad sounding) bov with an extremley loose and not adjustable spring. An adjustable plumback one that might I add sounds about 100x less cool fixed that problem.

I really must wind out that spring sometime.

just a question, does this happen when you have the aircon off? or all the time?

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
