Well my rb25det in my r32 is playing up.

Its idling fairly rough. Randomly starts hunting at idle then will just go back to being rough.

Bit rough cruising bellow 2500rpm

Pinging up top. Its only running 9psi with gcg high flow on 98.

It pull to red line smoothly but not aswell as it should but every now and then it gose like it should.

Allready tryed another afm and with afm unpluged so it runs off base map. Cant find vacum leak. Tryed running it with o2 sensor unpluged so its on base map.

yeah the problem is you're not revving it hard enough..when ever you install a bigger turbo with a stock ecu the trick is to hold it at redline for at least 5 minutes so the ecu can learn the new maps....

Try it and we won't be disappointed. ;)

Check those hose clamps, joiners, hoses and vac lines on all intake, cooler piping, boost controller, BOV, brake booster, rocker cover breather hoses, PCV system etc again. Check all of them. Anything with a bendy black thing attached to a solid something and a silver/gold clampy thing holding it there. If you have a mechanical boost gauge, even check the line going into the back of that and the point where it goes through the firewall too.

I can't stress the importance of this enough... it could save you from hours of pulling your hair out and spending hundreds of dollars chasing ghosts. I once had a wormdrive clamp that was an absolute bitch to get to and would only play up once engine warmed up to operating temp, eg. intermittent lean misfire and rough idle, rough performance at low rpm. Even with a vac/boost leak tester I made with 18psi pressure applied it wasn't obvious. It drove me insane for about 2 months in which time I literally tore my whole engine bay apart, spent hundreds and replaced heaps of shit that didn't need doing. I ended up feeling pretty stupid when I discovered a single twist of a screw on a $3 hose clamp was all that was needed to solve my problem. On the upside I learned a ton about how an RB ticks and there's heaps of shit that won't need attention for a long time... lol.

IAC / AAC valve - likely to have 15+ years of junk in it. Refer to this: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/110431-diy-aac-valve-cleaning-idle-reset/

Throttle body - it wouldn't hurt to give the TB & butterfly a good clean too (while you've got the carby cleaner handy from your IAC/AAC valve cleaning session :) ).

Mass Airflow Sensor (AFM) - remove and give it a good clean. Don't use carby cleaner on this. Use dedicated mass airflow sensor cleaner instead, it's not a solvent.

O2 sensor - if your ECU is relying on it (standard ECU does afaik), remove and clean, if really shitty, replace it. If o2 feedback isn't required eg. aftermarket ECU tune, ignore this.

Fuel Filter - it'll cost ya about $10 for a new one. Ryco Z200 fits like a glove and is a bit longer which is handy if you need to trim a bit of fuel hose back to get the old one off. If it hasn't been replaced for a long time I'd get onto it, I've seen some horrific shit come out of filters that have been left unchanged for 1+ years.

In uncommon/rare event - Knock sensor/s - if your ecu can't get a reading from them, it'll richen your map up and retard the timing. Inspect 'em.

Hope this helps

Cheers

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
