Hey guys i need to find out wat my cars doin and wat could be the cause...Im kind of worried and would really apreciate all the help u can give, I know this is long winded just giveing all the info i can,

Background: I have a 1989 hcr32 4 door, genuine 71thou kms with log books, was auto converted to manual (not sure if the auto comp is still attatched, , every thing was goin fine after the conversion, K&N Pannel filter, X force Front pipe(fitted 100kms ago) no catback thou, besides that compleatly stock, serviced every 5thou, im using Royal Purple motor oil, and Redline gear oilive put 13 thou km on it

Problem: The last 2months (2 tho kms) b4 my last 5thou km service, when i started the car cold the revs wouldnt build and wouldnt kick over unless i tapped the gas peddel it then starts and idles fine, 3 weeks ago i had it serviced and the problem is still there, wat i am also noticing is that it revs high at idle some times like 1500rpm but then drops to 900rpm, and when the air con is turned on its only adjusts teh revs some times but some times they drop to 400rpm, i get really bad Km's out of a tank. even when i drive like a nan, i know im driving a skyline and i expect high consumption, im currently on this tank of petrol see exactly wat i get out a tank but at 3/4 tank 86kms??? driving really rev less,

Thoughts: Some sensor isnt working, like teh sensor that determines idle speed and cold start, ??? : 02 sensor? i dunno

I hope that infomation helps and any questions that would help diagnose the problem please ask.

Thanks Guys

Brett

Try:

Cold start air valve, located under the plenum (near #5)

Auxilliary (Idle) Air valve, on the back of the plenum

Water temp sensor (single pin sensor, where top radiator hose joins inlet manifold).

  • 3 weeks later...
Cold air valve is that same as PCV or PCM Valve ???

and

Water temp. senor

How can i check those twon are in good working ?

i didnt end up doin any of that,

it ended up being a fuel line, with 17 years that kinda stuff is gonne be sus,

it was the fuel line from the fuel pump into the filter,

so yea chaged it, and starts like a dream,

cheers

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
