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.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
