hey, my car is an r33 skyline gtst 95 series one.

my problem is this, when i start the engine cold its all good and wants to go but when i drive around for about 10 mins and engine is warm it wants to stall and idol goes low to like 250-300, some times when i have it in park it goes to 700 and then when it hits drive or reverse it drops?

i just replaced the tps in it. what do i do now?

thanks alex

This may be a long shot, but my mate's car kept doing this, and it was because the throttle cable was too short, so there was too much air in the engine.

Although, I always thought if you could stall an auto, you're very talented.

Were u driving it normally, just accelorating, or did you out ur foot down and it revved up before kicking down? My mate's car did the latter. We all thought it was meant to do that, but he disagreed. He was right, he has to get a new one cos it shat itself. Might be worth looking into.

hey mate na i was driving it normally, and i just had the engine put in.

i bought it from slide proformance on here.

yeah like when i drive and lets say i go to 80ks and i drive normal i have to wait an extra 2 secs for it to kick up a gear on each one

Get your ECU read, may show a totally unrelated prob for your stalling.

For example my R33 auto kept on returning to "limp home mode" = selecting 3rd gear and running only in this gear at any speed.

My ECU was read and it showed a speedo fault, aprox 3 inches of electrical wiring had fried behind the dashboard!!!

So, yeah, get your ECU read and it may solve your prob without too much more time and fustration!!!

As EMZ said, probably not related to any of the above. Sounds like the line pressure to the auto is no good. Run an automatic transmission diagnostic - ive put a tutorial in the relevent section, and work back from there.

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.

      Oil pan for RB25DET NEO Stagea "version"

      meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)

      I can donate $100 to your upgrade fund. So long as you can donate the IC7 my way....

      I'd love a Haltech ECU, and Haltech 10 dash. Was having a chat with Rob and Andy @ Haltech when Rob put one in his MR2. First one I'm kind of interested in too, as you can dim it RIGHT down. Andy was saying bright dashes is one of his peeves too!
