I have a 1992 R32 GTR that has some idling issues. New motor and R34 Vspec II turbos with about 2,000 miles.

After it is warmed up sometimes it will idle upwards of 1,300 to 1,800 rpms sometimes it wont. Then sometimes it will idle at 1,300rpm and repeadily surge about every second steadily. The two MAF"s were just replaced and the catch can is empty. I did the research and found out that it might be the AAV.

Where is this AVV at?

If this issue continues after I clean the AAV, what else could it possibly be? I dont think a spark plug would cause this but who knows. It's a pain in the @$$ to find spark plugs here in Korea.

its an AAC valve... it sits under the plenum.... it controls the air going into the engine. when the throttle is closed......

give it a clean but idsay if it does it when it is warm its either ur tps or ur air regulator,.......

give it a clean any way...

try resetting the ecu after u clean it...... also

I have the powerFC. How do I reset it without losing the tune? Is it just like a normal ECU, unhook the battery for a few minutes?

Thank you for the local on the AVV btw.

Can't reset a PFC.

High idle on a GT-R is commonly a result of cleaning the throttle bodies around the butterflies (which you shouldn't do).

According to the workshop manual, the idle air adjustment is on the AAC valve.

I didnt clean the throttle bodies since I have owned the car. The previous owner didnt either that I know of.

Tomorrow morning I am going to clean the AAV and change the plugs if I can find a set locally. I will look for the idle air adjustment too. Hopefully this will fix it.

Oh another thing that started two days ago which I have to check also is the exhaust temp gauge is going hay wire, as in slamming the needle back and forth like a baby playing with a rattle.

I appreciate all the input honestly guys, the nearest shop I would trust to work on the car is about a 3 hour drive. So doing alot of learning. I am used to NA motors, had an EVO 9 for a few months though. It was brand new so nothing to fix, LOL.

nope. there is a how too... its 4 bolts.... pretty easy.. try running some injector cleaner through or get ur injectors cleaned... and replace the o-rings. it wont be ur throttle bodies.... its most likely a vacume leak form somwhere......try clamping off ur hoses to find if one has a pin hole in it.......

it could also be ur one way valve (pcv valve) conects to ur rocker cover breathers via hose.... clamp the hose off when its revving high to see if that fixeds it......

So I cleaned the AAV, that wasnt the problem. According to my Power FC, the O2 voltage is 3.94 and the car is running rich. Could that be it? The surging problem is fixed, my 4 year old daughter messed with the idle settings when I wasnt looking and the wife didnt know that the hand held was vital to the car.

they run pretty rich on idle anyway with a standard ish tune....thats just a gtr thing.... yeah id prob look at the idle settings you can try and replace the o2 sensor but it will always run rich...

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By dbm7 · Posted

      All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents

      Been a busy but productive day. Axle and hubs acquired. All fitted up after a bit of modifying. Need to sort out wider mudguards and running light reflector covers but other than that the trailer is gooood to go !!
