Okay I'm asking because I have no idea what to search for.. :(

I was just driving around today, just cruising, not flogging it or anything. But as I was pulling out of a parking lot, my car stalled! :(

It's a 1999 r34 25GT manual. I serviced it not too long ago, coil packs and spark plugs were replaced around 2000km ago.

When I restarted the car, it started idling around 1000rpm, but then started to drop and the engine would shutter then completely konk out. I tried to restart a couple of times but it wouldn't work.

I left it for about 15 mins, restarted it and it worked perfectly.

I tried bridging the consult cable to get the fault codes, it came up 55 which from memory is no faults..

Last time something like this happened to me was when I owned a magna, and that turned out to be the idle control valve.. But apparently if that was my problem then the engine shouldn't restart.

Does anyone have an idea on what it could be? Please help

    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no? 
    • What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.
    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
