hey 33SOM,

i have been having the same problem with my r33 for the last few weeks.

Sometimes it will idle normal then other days its around 1500 to 2000rpm.

i have found with him that if its idle is normal and i give it a good bang, it will then go up to the high idle, but if i drive normal shift at like 2500rpm it seems to be fine.

when i get off my ass i will try everything u have done

Looks like a problem that occurs when ya have a power fc installed

haha

i had mine installed in october

november, i started noticing the idle repetitively going from 500 to 1500

not the best look when you have stopped at the intersection.

i'm am in the midths of looking into it .

my AFM is not the cleanest one i have seen, and going to clean my panel filter aswell .

i will clean the AAC valve aswell, and replacing my fuel pump with a bosch 040 which i have recently purchased. ( Nothing to do with the idle but anyway).

I will also check the spring on the throttle butterfly, the "cold idle valve thingo" and the TPS, whateva that is.

After i have mucked around with these possible solutions, and i know then that its not them and they are clean. i'll take it to, "hopefully" a person that knows what it might be, and fix it

One good point from this, is my car seems to run quite smoothly when driven, like an idiot (not on the streets of course) or like a granny.

Just the idle is the problem

I also have the problem of turning my car on.... sometimes

it decides to just click and not start, eventually it will start

im guessing my starter motor is rooted, or fuel pump.

(Replacing fuel pump soon)

Any advice as with the other two fellow ppl with the same fortunate problem.

Would be much appreciated and less stress on me

Thanks

You have an alarm? A dodgy immobiliser caused that once for me.

i have a mongoose alarm

it did work properly.. once

at the moment, when i press the button to lock the door

it doesnt lock, but does arm the car if you do open it, and the alarm will go off.

i actually have to press the button to arm then use the key to lock the door. Its very fun, but i do atleast know the doors locked.

I have a new motor to put it, will be fixed soon

i will also check the immobiliser wiring and make sure it works properly

THanks for that.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
