is it turbo? does it have an aftermarket BOV?

what does it idle at?

i suggest

- getting a service including spark plugs and fuel filter

- clean the AFM

do a serach for more info on the above

best of luck, and congrats on the purchase! don't fret the auto rocks! auto ftw!!

damn, bet me to pretty much exactly what i was gonna post. lol

but yeah, what he said ^^

Hey Warren, Thanks, it's a completly stock turbo.

Idles at 1k when i first start it then drops to 600, then keeps going up and down for a minute then sits on 600. (no aircon or any electrics on)

Just took it for a drive, when i stop, then go to take off it allmost stalls. RPM needle drops out then boots back in and jolts the car... not smooth at all :O im kinda worried.

It had a oil change before i picked it up with new oil filter, and i filled her up with Vortex fuel.

Apparently the guy put Penright? oil in it he mentioned 15, and its semi synthetic as full synthetic lowers compression?... or so he says.

Anyway ill try a fuel filter and new spark plugs.

Cheers

Sounds like it could be an AFM issue.

Almost every R33 auto driver has heard of or personally encountered your problem.

I had the problem too and it stopped after I had the car tuned with a SAFC2.

hey mate

do you have the stock blow-off valve or an aftermarket one?

i suggest

- find out about your bov type, this may be the problem...

- adjust your throttle position sensor (TPS) - do a search for this info

- turn the idle up to about 800rpm when warm - there's a screw on the back of the intake manifold near the master cylinder... turn that to adjust idle. do a search again for more info

cheers,

Warren

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
