Slight Tap Drops Revs

Hey guys

Just noticed siting at idle if I tap the accelerator slightly it drops revs then picks up.

Idles at about 800-900 but with the tap drops to near 500

Could this be related to my current issue with my throttle being jerky as I either come off throttle or coming onto throttle.

I been reading up and few people said TPS voltage and with the jerking throttle while driving can also be related to the diff needing to be shimmed.

Thoughts guys please?

It is most likely that the TPS is not adjusted properly. The way I used to adjust it (RB20, not 25, but should be same) before knowing about what the closed throttle TPS voltage was supposed to be was to set it so that the slightest movement of the throttle would cause the injectors to do their little double pulse (you can hear it happen). That was close enough to the correct setting that it was always fine. The actual at rest voltage is about 0.4v.

I will check the TPS voltage when I get a voltage checking gizmo

Tune was only recent and I spoke to DVS about it and he said could possibly be that.

But I only just noticed it doing it at idle so it was kind of hard for him to diagnose over messages

I'll post the results up in here

Yes it will be in the tune, wen it goes from idle map to fuel and ignition map. Ur nistune was a bit of a pain in the tps department.

Remember it was way out and i had to adjust the tps trigger voltage. I mustnt have got it perfect.

Try adjusting the tps slightly either way otherwise i will have to fix it up for u :)

Yes thats correct. The rb20 ecu has a tuneable tps trigger voltage. Rb25 doesnt as they use a different tps that works off a set voltage to trigger idle maps on and off.

Yes i got it to turn on and off but it mustn't be perfectly adjusted.

U will need a multimeter or consult cable to adjust it. Or u can try trial and error. But make sure u mark it before u adjust it incase u go backwards

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
