Ok guys I have wrote this up a few days ago and done Alot of research, my car at idle is bouncing from 1200rpm to 2000rpm, I have a r34 gtt, I've been reading all day and I've replaced the afm, didn't fix it, tried fiddling with the tps, it jst changes the idle rpm but stil was jumping, I think tps is the one closest to the radiator on the tb? Ok now I tried the one at the rear of the tb, and it didn't change the revs or how the engine ran at all, I tried disconnecting it and still didn't do anything so I'm guessing this is the problem? I'm hoping it is cos I'm hopeless at working on cars and if it is I'll be stoked with myself lol, of this is the problem can any1 tell me what this sensor is called so I can get another?

Pull all intercooler Pipes off, inlet manifold and checked for cracks/split hoses and anything else that doesn't look right, everything seems to be fine, I noticed the butterfly in the tb is open when the car is off? Not sure if that's correct or not? Car is not blowing any smoke and is still jumping while at idle and is consistent, no powerloss, the sensor on the front of the plenum does adjust the idle so I know that's still working, the one at the back still does nothing to the idle when playing with it, even of unplugged so I'm still guessing this is the problem, I notice there is a bit of blowby in the piping but not a lot, checked radiator fluid and the oil, put everything back to stock including stock boost solenoid and blow off valve, still nothing, checked vac lines, hose clamps, battery terminals, afm, plugs were done a month ago ngkbkr7es, cleaned pod filter, reset ecu, still go no idea

List everything you've done (I mean everything, mods, tweaks, servicing etc) between when the car was working properly (idled at normal revs), and now.

Take a look at the charcoal canister (black cylinder with 2 or 3 hoses connected) and see if you haven't blown one of the hoses off when you upped the boost pressure.

I don't know about RB25 Neo's, but I think NGK BKR7ES plugs could be the wrong ones (BCPR7ES might the correct one)

Checked the canister, all fine, pulled the main pipe that goes to front of the turbo off and no splits or holes, checked the alloy piping that goes into the induction pip and looks fine also, it has to be the sensor on the back of the plenum...

All I did was put the boost controller, I put it on backwards at first n hit fuel cut, I then switched it back n I was idling high, it then got worse n now it jst revs from 1200 to 2000 consistently on idle...

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
