I don’t know why my car keeps shutting itself or stalling but it’s a big issue when it is an auto. Anyway the story goes if my car is in neutral for 5mins then I press the brake its stall or if I go up a hill then I press brake its stall. Also I’ve notices one thing because it’s a R34 I have 3 gauges, the battery gauge always moves rapidly for no reason could the stalling comes from the grounding problem of is there a wiring problem? I really need help, please feel free to input your answer or any feedbacks but please no stupid comments.

My car will be in service this Friday but if I could fine out the problems I can talk to the guys at AUTOFORCE so they can sort it out for me.

Sounds like the battery might need to be changed I got a sim prob with a old EA I owned it would only just tick over and when I stoped it would die turned out to be the battery. So your battery gauge might be telling the truth just see how much life it has just before it stalls....

Just a thought.

Check your battery terminals for corrosion and also to make sure it's all bolted together tight.

I think it is wiring related, something has come loose. Your battery is probably ok or you would have mentioned that it goes flat.

It could be a stuffed alternator although probably not or your battery would be dead.

One other thing I just though of; if there is a short somewhere in your brake light circuit it could cause problems. Maybe there is a wire hanging loose near your brake pedal. Do your brake lights work? Do they cause other lights to go dim with engine off?

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
