Hey guys. I've encountered this problem recently and it is driving me absolutely nuts. The engine turns off sometimes when I turn. It doesn't happen too often but enough to piss me off. I've had idling issues recently where my idle would fluctuate up and down. That has seemed to fix for the time being however I still don't know why my engine turns off. When the car is warmed and in idle, if i rev it the RPM will jump up and bounce lower than my normal idle speed. During this time the engine goes weak (Due to low RPM). This only happens momentarily as the RPM's catch back up to normal idle. Could it be an electrical issue or the crank angle sensor? Please help.

Kind regards Simon

Also the car stalls very easily going at low speeds.

i have the same problem acctully when the car heats up if i rev it on the spot it drops down and neally stalls and if i slow down hard it stalls out, i was told by the old owner it was caused by bad 02 sensors, i drive a r33 with a r32 rb26 by the way.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
