R33 Stalling

Hey,

wondering if anyone can be of help.

I have a r33 sII and it keeps stalling. What happends is that sometimes it has real trouble idoling. The best way i can simulate the staling is when i'm in neutral and idoling, if i rev the car up to 1 1/2 to 2G's. then take my foot off, it drops down to way below 500revs, then it trys and corrects it, then goes to high and then drops down again.

Most time it corrects itself, but sometimes when i have the stereo and climate control on it screws up and stalls.

And last night, with the stereo on and climate, when i pushed my foot on the clutch for about 2 -3 secs, it stalled on me, i was doing about 60 around a corner and the power assited steering and brakes went bye bye.

So if its just the car is idoling to low, or if it sounds worse, could some1 tell me what i could do?

If i need to change my idol point, then some info on that would be great.

Cheers

Qunto

There have been lots of posts on this but I don't think there's been any single answer to the problem.

I know some people have had their O2 sensor replaced & that's helped, while others have done something with the fuel pump.

My car also stalls, or nearly does, sometimes when I'm taking of ... when it's idling & I first push the accelerator it dies a bit before it revs, which is very annoying.

For what it's worth, the only thing that stopped it happening for me was getting the car serviced & tuned by someone who knows Skylines (in my case, Dr Drift).

Good luck.

      I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.

      Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary?

      I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
