Hey guys, lately my car started to "hunt" at hot idle, I suspected the stock paper intake gaskets were the problem so I changed them all to HKS metal items,

Still did it abit so I wound the screw out of the AAC valve and all seemed much better, then today when I did a cold start it only reved to 1100ish when first cold, then goes to 1000at hot idle? Used to idle higher then slowly drop to 1000rpm

Then I went to start the car after it sat for about 30mins or so and revs were very low hovering around 700rpm and needed to tap the throttle to bring it up, then it drops again, seems like its like this until it all gets to operating temp....weird

So far took aac valve out and cleaned it

Replaced intake gaskets with HKS metal items

Don't have any problems with it idling high at all, never have

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I've had the exact same issue, found one of the hoses from the air chamber up to the balance tube was split. As above smoke test will confirm where yours is

Hope it's not that cos I ain't pulling my plenum off again !! Il try manage to squeeze/dislocate my hand to reach under there lol

    • I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.
    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
