Hey there guys im new to the scene, My names Geraus... I just got my skyline R33 Series II 1996 manual im currently from the Northern Suburbs.. The power is amazing,but i think i am having idle problems.. the car is stock as a rock, like when im idle'ing in the traffic.. my engine idles funny..like its going to stall but my rev's arent moving...when doing a funny idle.. or is this normal? because of the heat.

This is my first turbo car, my 1st car was a Honda Prelude 1997 VTi-R,the skyline has much more power...

i have been researching on this fourms quite a while now and the fourm is very good and very helpful from time on i am more happy to contribute a donation to keep this fourm running as the help is very good. I am also willing to come to the SAU cruises and meet some intresting members when there on so i'l keep my heads up.

Here are the picutres of my baby.

Hi Geruas, welcome to skylines australia, i'm sure you'll enjoy your new ride. Looks really nice and clean :)

Exhaust, pod, FMIC will definitely be good mods to start off with :down:

You might want to look at the Tutorials / DIY / FAQ section where you can find really useful information down the road.

You might also want to join up with the SAU VIC club here

;)

welcome. its good that you've actually done research before getting a skyline. much better approach than mine - buying a car when i didnt even know that there were 3 models of 'line lol.

car looks clean. and i rekon the exhaust and cooler are a good place to start.

hehe DNGRUS, i called you last week... LOL i said i was from broady n i wanted to have a look at your car.. but then i found this one :) hehehe. i asked for your address, emsta2003, i will.. at the moment now im just ordering iridium spark plugs... im having a idle issue.

Omg LIAR! lol :D so much for 'coming' on Tuesday!

Hahaa kiddin ya! Nice car, Hope u enjoy it!!

Nice bud and welcome!

Unless you like the induction/sucking noise of the pod i would bother till you're making over 230rwkw. The std airbox, with a good filter will be more than ample.

With your idle best to start with the basics.

Change plugs, gap to 0.8mm.

Maybe even pour a bottle of injector cleaner in the tank, the next time you fill up.

Does it have an aftermarket BOV?

hey and welcome. im still new hear myself and this is the best place to get info on skylines, i researched for about 6 months before i found the right one that i wanted for now. someone that kinda lives near me, well actually kinda near my work. anyway im from sunbury and work at airport west so its not to far away only like 20mins. need any questions answered this forum is definately the way to go.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
