Hey guys i recently swapped my r33 from rb20e to rb25de s2, now it runs n drives but i cant get my idle lower then 1500, ive looked for intake leaks by spraying start ya bastard to see if it picks up and i get nothing so i replaced the intake gasket set and rechecked for leaks and still nothing, ive cleaned the iacv nothin, ive wound out the idle screw, removed the iacv plug nothing, turned the cas to see if its that but no, but also  when removing the intake i got water in the engine so i blew it out then removed the plugs and wound it over to clear it out its fine now but smokes abit now any ideas on both my problems would be great cheers

Yea thats my thoughts but should have jumped in rpm squirting the start ya bastard around but it didn’t 

You mean it should have dropped rpm, but maybe you just haven't found it yet. Keep trying everywhere like injectors, brake booster, etc. Good luck.

So I’ve found no leaks but I’ve found the earth to my iacv isn’t working, is it an constant earth to the battery or does it get its earth from the ecu 

IACV/AAC valve is normally closed. So without power it should be fully closed. Fix it but that's probably not your problem.

Only reason I think its iacv is cause of this

Constant 12V means that the other side (the earth side) is the switched side. If there is no earth there, then the switching device is not switching it on.

The IACV is not just a simple device though (ie, not just on-off). Look at the manual for what you can expect to see when it is working, and what you might see when it is not.

The hose you clamped is not just for the AAC valve, there's also an intake air regulator/cold start valve in there that affects your idle:

Verify that your cold start valve is actually getting power and closing after some time. To some extent this is just guessing because your intake is clearly not stock and it's unclear whether the routing of your vacuum lines is still the same as factory especially because your crankcase vent lines are gone. I also must emphasize that as a general rule once you set the AAC idle screw on an engine that is otherwise mechanically perfect (no leaks/etc) you should never ever touch it again. Your idle getting out of whack is never going to be fixed by touching a screw that has extremely limited control authority, and it is never a good idea to band-aid over some issue with air control by touching that idle screw even if it does work.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
