Pretty much as the title says. It's and auto s1 stagea but still just a 25. All stock except bov have been plumbed up. had this issue before I did that. Read heaps of forums and did most of the things suggested (cleaning aac etc) afm seems fine but hard to call. Any ideas? It's drivable but will stall out when you back off at a slow rolling speed so I pretty much idle through carparks.

have you set your idle correctly? get the car up to temp stop the car...unplug the tps....start the car...turn the idle screw on the aac valve till you have it idling at 750. turn car off...plug the tps back in.....if it still runs like shit after that it could be your tps.

Cheers badgaz will do that in the morn. Bov has been deleted completely and made a new intake pipe

Why?

Put recirc bov back on.

The reverb screws around with the airflow meter reading leading to the issue you have described.

Well, your initial post isn't particularly clear. I suppose you are in a rush for people to help fix your problem.

Somehow bov plumbed up equals blocked off?

Was it previously the stock bov recirculating as per stock?

I usually pretty much idle through car parks also, lots safer than boosting through them.

Superben. Firstly thanks for a mature comment. the engine was completely stock in every way and had the ssame issue. As for the bov, New intake pipe deleted that line, blocked other lines and put a plate over the bov where it goes into the manifold.

It's not the issue.

As for idling through Carparks I have no issue with that. It's a daily running stock boost. It IS drivable. just any speed below around 50km if you completely release the throttle it will die the revs down to almost a stall.

Productive comments are appreciated. if not fk off to boostcruising. Cheers

Typical as the new guy to a forum you would ease into things before potentially offending knowledgeable people who were willing to take their time to help you.

It's pretty hard to judge someone's true character based on a few (or even alot) of posts.

Not sure if your trying to have a dig or not. Signed up and posted in hope of getting some useful feedback from other owners, which in fact I got. The other comments are useless and there's no need for them. I referred to boostcruising for obvious reasons. I thought maybe a website dedicated to specific cars might have been a little different. Maybe your all having a lend and think it's funny? Sorry can't tell, this is text after all. I have stated that positive feedback is appreciated and will continue to thank those who are actually knowledgeable and offering their help.

+1 for BOV not helping the situation.

I have an auto R33 atm and since putting a Blitz atmo on back off it almost stalls. But I live with it for the hektik doses it does :yucky: ..

I'd be pressure testing the system for leaks as they will also create stall issues along with the bov set-up..

    • I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
