hey guys with another problem at hand again need your help.

ive just bought a tps for my sereis 1 R33.

i have done the acc valve cleaning,afm cleaning, new coilpacks ,sparkplugs,but cant fix my idle and very bad fuel economy.

so i thought id try and replace my tps.

ive pluged up the tps and let the car warm up to normal temp on idle with the tps conected and run very bad in missfires and shakes and just runs rich bad and bad fuel economy/performance.

i disconect the tps plug and the idle sky rockets to around 1700/1800rpm and then adjust the screw to set it to around 1000 which is the limit as screw wont really go no more clockwise,maybe just alil more.

but the car runs perfect smooth no smoke, nice note, turn it off no shaking nothing and no missfires.

when pluged back in the tps it goes down to 500/600rpm and i adjust it back up to 1000 threw the screw and runs like crap all the things that stated above that run fine with it off are happening.

am i doing something wrong in adjusting and that,i have a gready e-mange blue one and also my voltage on it is at 1.5v and thought it might be that to but not sure.

any help would be great cause i have no idea wat to do and really missfires on idle and fuel is bad aswell as perfomance wise too.

I know with RB26 TPS', the ECU expects the voltage when 0% throttle is approx 0.43 and roughly 4.4 with 100% throttle. Try adjusting the TPS with the engine off until it reads 0.4x volts with no throttle

Thats what i did it was sitting on 1.5v wen and was running like missfire and thought of clears up and then set it to 0.47v and open was 4.9v could here the engine smoothen out and at the exhaust rerally smooth with no lil poping or missfire but idle then just wen up and down like crazy,stalling plus performance wise didnt feel anywhere near the 1.5v wen the way i got the car.

      Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes

      I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.

      Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days

      It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
