Guys, i need some help!

Car starts fine, then once its fired it revs right up to about 1500rpm then drops to around 500rpm, sometimes nearly as low to make it stall.

Checked all the usually things as iv read through out other threads n still does it.

Iv recently noticed that the oil pressure gauge surges right down til the red light comes on then once i rev it slowly goes up.

This also happens under heavy breaking (oil pressure goes down til lights on)

Any ideas?

yep, mine is exactly like that, seems to do it when engines warm. have cleaned all suggested parts to do with idle. one thing interesting is that when idle is ramping up and down, i pull out one of the vacuum hoses off the plenum and idle goes sweet and normal, put the hose back in or block with finger and starts ramping again. this also happen with any other vacuum hose.

sum1 must know wats goin on.....pleeeez

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
