R32 gtst hot issues

Hey,

So ive got a 1992 gtst type m that i picked up recently. Its got 100,540km on it now and i just did the timing belt, put on a cheap diy intake and thats it. The car is in spotless condition.

Now im having an issue with the car when it warms up. Originally it would just start hard after the car had been driven. Now the car will start fine cold with no misfires or anything, but as soon as it gets to operating temp it just stalls. If you crank it over the idle will be high, around 1800rpm and then it will start to idle hunt from about 800 to 1800rpm. If you give it any throttle input itll stop at 2500 rpm which im assuming its a limp mode?

I replaced the ignitor and checked all fuses throughout, but im running out of ideas. 

Any help would be appreciated!

Small update.

I unplugged the MAF while it was idle hunting and when i plugged it back in the idle INSTANTLY dropped back to normal and the car stopped running in limp mode.

So now the car is back to starting hard after its warmed up. Itll start up but immediately die. Then it takes 10 to 15 seconds of cranking before it sort of "coughs" to life and then runs perfect again.

Well i still have the factory parts and i may put it back to stock. That being said when i got the car the MAF wasnt tightened down in the inlet tube. Its a super tight fit even getting to the clamp which might be why it wasnt done up properly.

As far as i can tell this car was dealer maintained its whole life.

Ordered a used maf hopefully itll help with my issues. Also going to pull my stocker apart and see how bad it is.

Reading through a few posts scattered across the net, some people said the contact points in the connector have fallen apart due to time and heat among other things.

So the idle hunt and other issues were solved with a remanned afm but im still having hot start issues.

In the morning the car fires up fine but getting in after work the car will fire up and the immediately die. Then the engine will crank for 5 to 10 seconds before it fires up. Today i noticed smoke from the exhaust and it appeared to be black. Ive also smelled fuel when the car needs to crank longer.

Is it possibly leaking injectors maybe?

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
