After complete turned car on as normal... idled fine... although as went to rev, it spluttered and acted as though it wanted to die.

also is the airflow meter prongs ment to be soldered inside the flow meter.

I had to replace my AFM as mine stopped working (suspect due to using an oil-type pod filter). I ended up sourcing a 2nd hand replacement off someone wrecking their car on the forums - For reference it's the same AFM on NA as Turbo.

Cheers

id have to disagree. the NA and turbo AFMS are deffinitely different. GTST computers dont like NA AFMs, and likewise. different part numbers

I have an AFM from my r33 gts4 n/a if you want it.

It has the pink label on it and was working fine when I took it off.

I thought something was wrong with it so I bought a new one, turns out it was fine the whole time. Massive waste of money on my part... but I was planning to change it anyway as a maintenance thing.

If you want it pm me :-)

Just a question, what filter are you running?

When you cleaned it did you put too much oil on it? or are you running one of the dry apexi filters?

Apparently if there is too much excess oil on the filter it gets stuck to the metal prongs in the airflow and will cause the airflowmeter to give a faulty reading.

The other thing is to clean your throttle body as it can get dirty and cause the rough idle etc, you'll be suprised at all the junk in there especially if you're running an aftermarket filter without a box.

I'm not a mechanic, these are just some of the things I have discovered since owning my r33. I work for toyota and a few of our mechanics own skylines (traitors I know haha) so that's who I grab all my info from... they haven't led me astray yet :D

      Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.

      Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.

      That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!

      Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)

      Was that deliberate?
