It's not all the time.. Only sometimes.. Like this afternoon when someone was watching me come in the driveway and it stalled. Then I started it again and the revs started goin from like 100rpm to 800rpm and then I just kept revving it till i got in the driveway, got out, slammed the door, put the alarm on and left him have his little tantrum.

It used to do it and then that problem was fixed, but I can't remember what it was.

hey erin when u say that the reves were going from 100rpm too 800 rpm do u mean up & down if so thats your TPS :cheers:

you really have to love the inconsistent problems. Especially when they NEVER come up when you drop your car off at the mechanics. :cheers:

I had another weird one with the silvia. It would rev way high like 4500rpm in fifth doing 80 on the freeway sometimes and then after a cold night it would stop. The car would sit in the sun all day and then in the afternoon the problem would be back.

So I screamed something like f**K THIS CAR and bought a 33. Best thing I ever did.

ah no TPS is not hard to replacebut is a l few $ $ $

prob try the subaru upper engine cleaner befor going ahead & replacing it might just be really dirty

ah as for the sugur I would not wish that on my worst enemy it means u have to pull the fuel tank out & clean it + new fuel lines filter & injectors out & cleaned :cheers:

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
