Hi all, basicly my mate just bought a 34Gtt. The thing runs smooth and nice only recently its start to play up a bit.

Everynow and then i'll put itself on a LIMP MODE, TCS off logo come on also with Engine light and another one which i forgot. Running like a pig, sound like a subaru LOL then i'll go away in 4,5 mins.

Anyone ever suffer this before? Just to help a bit the car has HKS front mount, HKS silent zorst all the way apart from that everything is standard.

Thanks

is it manual? and by limp mode do you mean you can't rev it past a certain RPM?

my car is doing the exact same thing, but i can rev it to whatever i want. 'TCS OFF' and 'SLIP' lights (means that traction control is temporarily unavailable) 'Engine' light is on too... haven't done diagnostic. I disconnected the -ve batter terminal overnight to reset the ECU, but that didn't help. I know exactly what you mean by the suby comment.

i think my car and your mates need to go do a Nissan dealer to run a diagnostic, see what the engine light is on for. Tell him/her to try the reset ECU thing, but if not.... take it to a dealer. Seems to be a fairly common problems with the GT-T's.

Yeah happened to me too for a while.

Hasn't done it for ages though.

The engine splutters a little and then comes good.

I just shut the car off, started it again and it was all good.

Running like a WRX is because of one of the coils packs not firing, it's the most frustrating sensation you can experience!!! I'm guessing Error 21

The coil packs in R34's are known for breaking if you look sideways at them

Never had this problem on my car, it's always had a nice amount of torque... has the car had a service recently? Checked the oil levels? fuel filter? how old are the spark plugs? just some things to check out.... I'd take it to a Nissan Dealer for a diagnostic too. Good luck!

I disconnected the -ve batter terminal overnight to reset the ECU, but that didn't help.

FYI... you dont need to disconnect the battery overnight to reset the factory ECU... just disconnect, pump your brake pedal a few times until it's hard. Reconnect battery and start up, you will notice the reset has occurred.

It's your canister purge control valve, best bet would to be to contact Nissan NZ...I personally find Nissan AU to be useless. It will probably still end up being ex Japan though.

It looks repairable, if you don't want to though, try here [email protected]

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
