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]

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
