hey i have an r33 gtst skyline i seem to have problems with it.

when i start the car when its cold the engine feels tip top.

when i drive for a while and the engine satrts to heat up a bit it feels like the car wants to stall and has an idle problem.

when i turn the car on when its hot it takes a little bit to find its idle...

it goes from 100 to 1000 in reving and sometimes stalls when i try.

also when i rev my car a little it sounds like there is a rattle where the timing belt is.

it kicks in at about 1000 and cuts out a little later.

things i have replaced.

oxy sensor

tps

engine and turbo

mods i have

hks airpod filter

carbon battery.

i have video of it

also my throttle cable feels lose as you can see in the video.

$15 will be rewarded with correct awnser for both things that need fixing.

i will slowly replace items once i know whats going on.

on thursday my car will get dignostics done.

i only ask this because everywhere i go machanics are like agrrrr this is the problem but its not really agrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

thanks alex

I've got some money on the AAC valve, or the Cold Start Air Valve (underside of the inlet manifold). But if you've replaced the whole engine, then those would have been replaced.

Yeah sounds like your AAC is stuck open or the regulator is faulty
Pull the plug on and off to see if theres a drop/increase in revs.

What if there is a drop or increase in revs? Which is supposed to happen?

wow, we are in pretty similar situations, Ive done a rebuild, done the turbo and only got a pod filter. Yeah only rebuild the long block, so kinda sems like they gave me back this amazing engine block surrouned by sh*tty parts lol. my idle used to be all over the place, so i began replacing parts. i replaced the IAC valve,then eventually the whole unit, got new tps, got it re positioned, got a new throttle body and cleaned the unit out. That worked for my idle issues, never stalled or hunted around much again, only rarely. I'd also check for any vacuum leaks or cracked hoses, ask ur mech to do a compression test. rebuilt engines have so much power when everything around them is running right. also for your rattle, I'd suggest u check that all the bolts up font are tightened. Good luck wit it

Ben, I am currently having problems very similar to this and you said you replaced your IACV Valve and i have ben told thats what i need to do but i am having a lot of trouble finding out where to get one, Nissan don't want to sell me the valve alone they want me to buy the entire unit and that is around $1k for something i dont need, could you tell me where you got your new/used one from please? I have a 1996 R33 series II.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      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.

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      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

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      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.

      Blue slip

      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).
