Is It Normal For This To Happen?

When I hold my foot on the break to come to a complete stop, hard or soft, the car after it hits a certain amount of revs it kinda pulls the car forward as I pull up at the lights.

If I just hold the break peddle down quite hard the revs drop a fair bit and than pops back up. You feel the car being pulled a bit more forward without doing anything different. Whats the go? Lol. I have to, after I press the break paddle, loosen my foot off the peddle so the car doesnt drop in the revs. Still pulls the car forward...

Also another thing that might have something to do with that ^^^ I was driving it the other night not fast just normal and I felt it lagging pretty bad like it didnt want to idle any higher than all of a sudden, I stopped at the traffic lights like normal and pulled off from them and the car struggled to even move. I pushed the peddle all the way in than all the way out. Nothing! It moved but not very fast or even above 20km/h. It was like dying on me I swear. I was so worried cause I dont know what it was.. Its happened once before yet ive only had the car what like two weeks. I turned the car off straight after it lagged like that for about 10 minutes and it was fine but I know it wasnt normal. Hate stressing bout it :(

Well I need new bearings but no where is cheap enough for me as im struggling a bit on money... :S Does that mean anything? Do you recon the full body throttle needs a good cleaning?

It was in snow like the setting haha. Maybe that had something to do with it lagging... mmm lol. and Im wondering if theres some sort of non stock system put in my car where if i just sit there in drive the car randomly tries to go forward with me just holding the break and ive noticed if i pull the steering wheel to the left or right it does the same thing where it revs up and tries to move the car forward like it wants to go somewhere but im not doing it. Really weird.... Does anyone know what it could be? Thanks

Ok, resisting the urge to make fun of you being a woman right now, I'll try to help :P

I don't really understand your description of the first issue, so I'll leave that one alone. The second issue, the lagging, sounds like a misfire. Especially if it stopped after you turned the car off and on again. So did the car sound any different? Like a WRX sort of sound? I would be checking spark plugs. Potentially coilpacks as well but that's generally associated with high rpm misfires rather than low load.

As for your last post... It doesn't sound like there is any actual issue there. Automatic cars will move as soon as you take your foot off the brake, that's the stall point of the torque converter. And turning the steering wheel in a car with power steering puts load on the engine, so the revs need to go up with it.

Of course I may have completely misinterpreted your descriptions and I'm way off lol. If you could get a video of said problems then that may help thumbsup.gif

Yes I may be a girl but I do know a bit about cars just the things I post on here im just double checking that its all good :blush:

Yes I understand that whole thing with autos its just in my last car which no wasnt a skyline but it never did anything like that. Older yes and not a drift car haha. So I talked to a mate of mine and he said its not normal for the revs to go up like it did.. Just sitting there the car tried to pull itself forward when I did absolutely nothing.. It does it sometimes.. You see the idle moving a bit to.. And I did a service on it thinking it would do something.. The car just runs better but does the same stupid shit lol. The sprak plugs were chenged, oil and coolant and filters and the coil paacks are new so no problem there.. I thought the revs doing that was normal for a skyline because i thiought it does it to help you turn corners but the whole just sitting there on the spot the car tries to go forward on its own aint normal haha

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
