Hey guys I've had a problem with my r33 for a while now, If the engine gets hot  (on a cold day this wont happen unless the car is thrashed) it will stuggle to idle most of the time resulting in it stalling when not under load but if I put the ac on it will idle at the normal range for about a minute then go back to stalling

Edit: If i change down gears slowly it will not stall when i stop, But if i suddenly press the clutch or put it in netural whilw stopping it will stall also the car does not have an afm

 Yeah mate it's got a stinger ECU but I don't think that's the problem because the cars had this setup since I've owned it and it started having this issue about 6 Months in to owning it (also had a tune from a well respected tuner in my area since which did not fix the problem)

I had an issue like this on my rb26 was iacv valve was right plugged up and caused the engine to stall when turning, lights on, a/c on etc. I don't know about your rb25 but could be the case if it idles fine when cold. also theres a screw on rb26 iacv that you can adjust I don't know about your setup but have you tried turning up the idle a bit in someway either through ecu or manually? what does the car idle at on a cold day when warmed up?

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
