is yours really high or something ?

well yes...

look who is asking the question.

im trying to problem solve why im getting a reading of 2.4volts at idle.

you said the other day that it should be below 1v at idle.

yeah off the bat 2.4 seems way too high

i'd be suprised if it was correct

if you rev it a few times

does it always go back to the same value?

are u sure q45 is selected?

no pipework leaks around the afm?

whats the voltage with the car set to ON but not running

a photo of SENSOR SW / CHECK with the car set to ON but not running and another pic of the car running, that shoud help. also confirm what is under SETTING, AIRFLOW

ingnition only = .160v

it starts around .350v then counts down.

when running its up in the low 2.2 - 2.4 volt range

well, the idle will be shagged if its saying 2.4v of AIRFLOW to the powerfc and there actually is jack all. its probably on half the load axis at idle. ie because its saying 2.4v on the load axis, its like halfway. it would be mega sucky idle, suprised it even runs

what pfc (ETC, PROG VERSION)

what intake piping (stock turbo duct?, custom?)

what air filter (pod, box, panel filter, open mouth?)

where is the afm (in front of turbo, after intercooler?)

can u get a photo of SENSOR SW / CHECK with car running

do u have someone local with a knock working q45 AFM ?

can u try the stock afm back on it ? does it give similar readings?

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
