So i've had this a few times now, most recently the last couple of days. S2 R33 rb25det automatique', mostly stock- fmic, exhaust, 3deg retard on cam gear, iridium plugs in whatever stock range is, 6 or something,& tomei fuel pump. Not really been driving the car at all except to and from work in peak hour for the last week, alot of idling time and light throttle. Car started running and idling like ass, coughing/spluttering like it had lung-aids or something. Boost gauge drops from idling around -81 to -65 whenever this happens. I'm madly checking for vac leaks, misfiring coils, faulty cas, afm, oxy etc, can't find anything. So I take it out and cain the crap out of it tonight with a few full throttle runs and basically giving it a bit on an extended drive, and what do you know, back to pulling -81 at idle and running much better.I'm putting it down to fouled plugs or maybe injectors overdue for a clean....So this is what the rb25's love, a good bit of throttle, none of this touchy feely treat me gently shite?

They love it in and around their intake

that would explain the....buildup...... that i've seen in the intake manifold

my guess is you were driving it like a nancy boy and the car was rejecting you
I treat my cars like I treat your mum...get inside her twice a day and take her to heaven and hell and back..

oh man....it's obviously not impressing your car, check the light on the ecu, it'll be flashing pink, which is the nancy fault

i have got nearly same issue but car turns off when on idle like as soon as i push the clutch this happens when hot, i have friends saying injectors need a clean and new spark plugs because they would be rot from too much heat because of the injectors that are stuffed car sounding like shit atm. i drive the like pretty much like nancy boy every day but give it a flog once in a while lolz but no time to take it out but it couldnt be because of that?

if you hit the shit out of your turbo with a cane at least 3 times a week it'll make the motor stronger and might even net you some kw

Im guessing thats an asian father type encouragement

*hit him with book to make him smarter*

*whip him with caine like animal to make him faster*

I understand.

atmo blow off valve is your trouble buddy

when i was a kid in school, id ask my asian friends why they flog me in the maths tests

they said coz their dads would flog them with the maths text book if they didnt

aint no dictionary big enough to have fixed that test tho, fkrs.

so anyway back on T for this mofo. So the next day car was running like shite again...pulled the plugs and no signs of fouling, in fact some might say a little toooo clean. Gave it the ol' rev-ism a bit more and all good so I have NFI. Anyway have dude coming to clean injectors so will see if that makes sweet f/a difference.

i fixed my car turning off issue and it was the coilpack harness now it just sounds like shit car all shakeing and stuff please let me know if it ur injectors because i will also get mien clean but i think i got exhaust leaks i think i should fix that o2 sensor off the cat first, so if your injector clean dont work try a different coil pack harness, i only noticed because car seemed like it was searching for something like you hear slight rev change on idle, after the coilpack harness change i havent got that issue and it doesnt shut off on me no more :D

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
