Hi

I just rang a perfomance place and was asking a couple of questions regarding my high idle problem (R32 GTR) and I had told them that I had pulled apart the throttle bodies and removed the butterflies from them to be cleaned. Then they told me that to put the butterflies back in there is a long procedure that is outlined in the GTR manual. I cant find this in the manual and I have done a search in google and in skylines australia (using: throttle, butterflies, gtr throttle etc) and there is no mention of this anywhere.

Can anyone verify that this procedure exsists and if so where can I find it?

Thanks

have you checked and cleaned all your idle control valves?

there is one that mixes the air specifically for idle ( well I am only basing that knowledge on the sr20det motors , but presume the same would apply. )

why not just mark everything before you take it apart - with one of those white marker pens so you can ensure alignment etc is A-OK on reassembly

you can run into problems when removing butterflies from the intake. to the best of my knowledge there is a thing coating on the intake runners that helps them seal which is slowly worn away (could be wrong about this, as I've never been able to pick it myself). also, there are seals on the sides where the rods are and these are hard (impossible?) to source and replace. if they are leaking you will have high idle. also when re-installing the throttles to the intake you need new gaskets and may even need to have the mating surfaces 'faced'.

^^^ yeah its a fun job. luckily after a few times you learn the tricks.... the first one i did back a the barn in SA took me a fair while and many skun fingers :rolleyes:

Cats car had the same issues, i had the lot hot tanked and re-assembled the lot using metal gaskets and hylomar spray..... fixed it beautifully. the setting precedure is 100% in the manual as i downloaded it off this forum :thumbsup:

if yuo give me your email i will send the pages through.

edit: email sent as i cant upload PDF from here at work.

gucia i had the same problem after i cleaned the throttles.

when i cleaned them i removed the butterflies on 1 of the throttles.

when i put them back in i didnt check to see wether i could see light through the throttles.and there for had a high idle ie.1300-1400

disconnect your throttle rods and make sure the throttle levers are hitting the bumpstop.

cheers

ps.it is a absolute mongrel of a job to remove the plenum to get the throttles back out

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
