Hey man that problem could be many things really but the one that covers many catagories is the coolant temp sensor, if its ok cold, then when warm if disconnecting the plug off the iac valve drops the high idle then that shows it is trying to compensate for the temp it is being supplied... probably saying the engine is cold still, which means the mixture will be very rich causing very hard to rev and idle is increased...

you should check the resistance as the engine warms up of the sensor and see if it changes... should decrease...

anyway thats just my thought it happens at work a bit.... good luck man :P

where is that sorry im a newbie

the temp sensor is on the coolant inlet to the head where the radiator hose connects, its the slighly bigger sensor... best way to check it is to pull it out, get it sitting in some water over the stove with a thermometer and using a multimeter check the resistance across the terminals of the sensor... you cant do it in the car unless you check it when its cold then when it warms up, but the plug must be disconnected and engine not running... if it doesnt change when its hot then it will have to be replaced

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
