R33 Gtst Cold Idle Issue


Recommended Posts

afm cleaned, aac cleaned, t/body cleaned, tps adusted, new fliuds, plugs and filters, etc and still happening.

only on cold starts/idle. hot idle it is perfect and car runs normal.

wtf is the issue?

Note: idle will drop to around 200rpm around the 2.5min mark.

any ideas would be great!

i'm not sure how good you are at maths, but that is actually 400rpm that it is dropping to, not 200rpm. each of those marks is 200rpm.

as for the idle, i'd start by adjusting the idle screw to get the idle up. there is a proper way to set the idle. from memory you need to get the car warm, then turn it off. then disconnect the TPS plug, restart the car and rev it over 2500rpm about 5 times in a few seconds. this should lock it into base idle mode. you may find that the idle is totally different to what it is normally. then adjust the idle up to where you want it, turn the car off, plug back in the TPS and you are all set.

or you can just use a consult cable and a program like datascan i think it is. that's what i do.

when the ecu is in base idle mode it locks the timing at 15 degrees, and locks the IAC/AAC valve at 40 and doesn't try to self correct the idle. this way you can get the idle adjusted to a point where the ecu can then use the IAC/AAC valves to adjust the idle in either direction. if you just simply wind the idle screw without it being in base idle mode the ecu may try and compensate to keep the idle where it is and you won't actually be altering the idle until the ecu has run out of adjustment, which means at othe times the ecu can't adjust the idle to where it needs to be.

that vid was taken 4days ago. its now dropping lower after a mech adjusted the TPS. i just re-adjusted the tps to were it previously was. ill give that method a shot and get back to this thread.

    • Which injectors are you using? It's likely the fuelling is off also, so as above.
    • Awesome to know. I have a Series 1, and When pulling my front bumper off for the first time i realised my reo/crash bar was a bit worse for wear, and was going to try pick up a better one soon just so i can replace it. Someone is selling a full series 2 front bar and brackets for a decent price, so was going to probably reuse my brackets and install the new second hand reo/crash bar. I also have a genuine Altia body kit to do up, spray and put on, and not sure if that will use the series 1 or series 2 brackets for the front bumper, so having both will be handy, and knowing i can drill holes out to make stuff fit between series is also handy to know!
    • I should also say that the while they are different the only parts that matter are the center headlight supports and center bar from S1 to S2. The center bar will work, but the S1 has holes that clips go through into the S1 bumper. So if you were super cheap you could simply drill the S2 bar. Same thing with the side/wings. They have slightly different 'clips' but can be made to work. The center headlight brackets however, cannot. This is also where the GTR differs, which has a different center bar, and different headlight supports (to either GTT system), it also has different 'wing' headlight supports which is what I am calling under the headlight. However those CAN be made to work with the GTT Reo for a GTR front bar by a small spacer and a drill/tapping a thread into the reo because the bolt positions are slightly different. So people only really need the center brackets to go between GTT S1, GTT S2, and GTR if you are happy to do some tinkering.
    • Indeed  😃  Appears the site is back up now (migrated not updated) - kudos @funkymonkey & @PranK
    • If this, then this You can't really get away without it. There are hacks that you can do in Nistune, but things are much easier with the sensor than without it. If you're not planning to Nistune the ECU, then stop right now and add it to your plan anyway, because the ECU is going to shit the bed over the missing ABS and TC computers that it expects to see, and you need Nistune to stop it chucking all its toys over the side of the crib.
