C34 S1 Manual, Revs When Stopping?

Hi all, since converting my s1 to a manual I've loved it, but for some reason- now this is very intermittently happening -it revs up to about 1500, sometimes up to 2000rpm when coming to a stop or very slow turn.

This is very frustrating when trying to slow down for a turn or roundabout, and stay in 3rd gear -but it's pushing like a dozer!

or you slowly pull up at the lights and it's pulling 2000rpm (and it's reasonably loud) and people are looking like what's this dude doing?

I've not been able to replicate the conditions or driving techniques to make it do this, it's very random.

Some days it will do it at every stop or slow turn/intersection.

Other days it won't do it at all the whole drive?

Sometimes it goes between this revving state and idle repeatedly while stopping (revving up and down every 1-2 secs)

I can only assume it has something to do with the auto tune?

Maybe it's revving slightly to maintain converter speed/pressure? (because it doesn't know any better).

The only auto mod I did was bridge the neutral switch in the engine bay so it can start.

Is there something I can do to the input signals to the ecu? Vehicle Speed sensor or something to fool it?

Any help on this would be great? As its starting to p!ss me off!

Sorry that I can't offer anything useful, other than to say what you probably already know: my auto does that, and I assume it's normal for the auto ECU. If you rev it in neutral even, after the revs fall, they will "blip" back up to about 1,500-2,000 rpm for an instant. I think it's part of the auto ECU setup. Seems to me that this is more than just tune - that there are extra "smarts" in the auto ECUs which are responsible for this.

Ok, next question, does anyone know where to source an r33 style ecu plug?

I have a stock manual tune gtst r33 ecu here. Ill just re-pin the plug to use it.

Or-

Is the s1 c34 ecu nistune-able?

Or can I use a r34 neo power fc?

Im so over this issue I'm just going to buy an ecu with a manual tune!

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
