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.

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
