Could very well be the issue. Tty another one to see if it does the same or not.

With the TPS it should be .45v no throttle and should slowly rise to 4.5 - 5v at Wide Open Throttle. Make sure u are checking the correct pin on the TPS.

You say in ur post( 4 up) that its only whenits dead cold then once it starts it takes 7hrs. Can u explain this a bit more please

It does it when its stone cold. Then it'll take around 7hrs or so to get cold enough after its hot to start doing it again. And i'm pretty sure its the IAC as the spring isn't even holding it closed normally. I tested it with 12v and nothing ... at all so i'm thinking when its cold the AAC struggles to flow enough to stop it running rich on cold start.

And there is only 2 wires on the tps, or am i supposed to earth one of them to test it?

Also were is this hose supposed to go, Its at the rear of the block beside the intake manifold.

Was bypassing which must have been enough to make an issue at cold start when it richens up. Through an oem worker on and straight away starts perfect. Better then when i first got it. Shitty gfb BOV's

Looks like it but it is blocked with a bung. And the orientation of the hose puts it to the back of the fuel rail/inlet manifold as you can see by the bit of a hole above and left a bit to the nut.Also heater works fine :)

Issue has reared its ugly head up. So i thought id replace the Cold air idle controller which didn't work when i supplied voltage to it. Fitted a known working one and still has the same issue. Any ideas?

Haha tell me about it. When the engine is stone cold when i start the engine the first 2-3 seconds it sputters and farts around 200-300 rpm. Occasionally it will stall out and need a re-start. If i jab the throttle after i've started it and while its sputtering it revs up then returns to a normal cold idle. Ive checked the tps and adjusted it to 0.45v idle and at max it only goes to 4v. Coolant sensor is 2k at cold and haven't had the chance to check it at operating temperature. Has a known working cold air valve and idle is set to 600rpm as per manual. Had it set to 900 but made no difference. Have cleaned the IAC and the AFM. Resoldered the AFM pins. Replaced the fuel filter and lines. Replaced all the vac hoses and boost hoses. Any ideas?

Cold start issue can be a few things.

Let me know if it blows much smoke meaning its too rich.

How low is the idle on cold start?

Does the problem go away with a bit of throttle? Maybe the aac valve is buggered.

Have u set the base ignition timing? Might be out

No smoke,

When it starts it farts around 300 but once i have jabbed the throttle it goes to 1400-1500 at cold stand still.

And i've replaced the cold start valve ( one under the tb). I would think if it was the aac it would have an issue every start and struggle to idle? It idles sweet at 600 as per the manual and doesn't falter when a/c is switched on/off.

Yeah if i start it with the throttle a bit open it starts sweet.

And i haven't touched anything with timing and once the engine is warm it idles perfect, runs perfect. Only thing timing wise i can think of is that the cold compensation on the computer has changed.

your starting issues are fairly similar to my 32 gts-t which every cold start struggles to get up to idle. A short tap of the pedal usually gets it to idle perfectly so I have never bothered to track the fault down.

Did your random power cut out issues go away? I had exactly the same thing and it was definitely the AFM plug getting dry joints plus having an aftermarket BOV. I presume given you are getting TPS voltage you are using consult? if not give that a test and make sure it isn't throwing up any fault codes.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
