Hey guys,

I've just recently got into getting myself an r32 from having a few sr20s

My rb20det, standard except a exhaust. Has a weird issue on cold start that I cannot work out.

In mornings, the car will crank over, idle and become to warm up. But when I start to drive the car from 0-2000rpm it feels like it's hitting a wall until passed 2k then will drive perfectly fine. Now the weird part is if I even drive 3 houses down. Turn the car off and back on. Even though its still cold. It won't hesitate at all and drove perfectly fine.

I've done fault code tests to only come up with 55, I've cleaned the afm. Changed plugs, cleaned out coilpacs, I haven't yet had a chance to fiddle with the AAC unit just yet.

I figured it might be an ecu issue and by turning on and off the car it was resetting the cold start. But I have since swapped out the ecu for a working one off a friend with no change.

Anyone had this issue or can anyone enlighten me on it being something to do with AAC valve?

Thanks!

Car runs rich until water temps hit 65degrees. This hesitation disappears when the water temp setpoint is met.

I have heard stories similar to yours in that you can turn off/on to over-ride the cold start fuel map but when I gave it a shot it made no difference for me...

Not sure if that helps.

I bought the car with water pump replaced. It takes forever to warm up. I may try driving it from cold and install my after market gauge and see if that is correct.

Cheers for the reply

sounds like thermostat is stuffed if car takes forever to warm up. Means the car would always be running rich. Check that out.

I just drove it today. As I hardly drove it. Hasn't been started in couple days, it's a nice warm 27 degree day. Stated and idled perfect, drove it, does the rubber band effect till I turn the car off an then back on. Then it drives fine?

I also let the car warm up while it was doing the hesitation and it didn't change. Only until I turned it off and then back on straight away.

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
