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.

yea it was tuned but never could thought out the idle issue,can here the exuast making lil poping sounds like trrrr trrr trrr and thought maybe leakings and that but when i disconected the tps plug that all went away and idled almost perfect and no lil poping or missfires.

i havent tryed disconnecting the o2,might try that as cant think of really anything else.

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.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
