I had the say problem after my rebuild. cleaned of all carbon build up and idle was going up to 1500-1600 rpm. I could not find any air leaks and the hoses were all correct. At the back of the intake houseing there are the air by pass hoses that feed the aac and the cold start valve with air to bypass the trottles, blocked of these hoses to make sure that the vave were not stuck open (the rpm should drop). The only way i got the rpm down was to readjust the main throttle stops them selfs and then the tps switch. It is now at 950.

The guy working on my car said he got the idle down to 950 when the oil is cold but after its warmed up its up around 1000 then if you boost it it gets upto 1100. I dunno he said it could be the oil??? Im using motul 4100 turbo light

My R32 GTR is idling high too but thats after i took the whole intake collector off..a way to see if you have leaks is by spraying aero start. It will make the revs pick up when and if there is a leak around your mannifold etc..Mine hasen't shown any sign of that when i tried it but it can get as high as 1900rpm after driving...i took off my AAC valve and cleaned it out i will get a new gasket for it but i dont think thats the problem..Also since this happened i lost all boost..I thought a vacuum line could be the problem..seems more like the wastegates arent closing to build boost than a turbo failure...So i need help with this too..how can i test the stock boost control solinoid...?? Any ideas? i have a completley stock GTR. Thanks

You need what is called a mightyvac.

You can apply vacuum or pressure to the actuator and test what pressure it takes to activate the arm.

all of you sound like you are having the same problem.

The throttle body should not contain any carbon build up. It should be clean at all times or whenever possible. Any crap stuck in there will cause air to be able to pass and will effect the idle.

However, when you clean your T/body, it is very important not to just spray throttle body clean or carby clean straight into the throttle body. Doing this will stuff the TPS.

You need to spray onto a rag and use the rag to clean the butterflies.

On the high idle side of things. The TPS should not have to be adjusted!

Do not move it unless you have the correct testing equipment to set it properly.

To just turn it in the hope of good results is wrong.

If you have the test specs from the manual then use them to check voltage and such. This will tell you if the TPS is stuck on wide open throttle, which it probably is.

No matter what you do to the AAC valve, it won't bring it to correct idle.

All of the above posts are good for maintenance anyway so do them also.

If the TPS tests bad, throw it away and get another. Simple.

Have you tried cleaning your AFM? Sometimes this can also effect your idle.

If you don't have the testing specs, PM me and I'll give em to ya.

Hope this helps.

The other thing is.....

About the boost guage reading. Your guage should read between roughly 15hg-20hg Which is -0.5 - -0.7bar

Any lower than 15hg and you have a vacuum leak somewhere. Or your manifold is not getting enough. I would explain but it is irrelevant.

To add a little more to this, the TPS voltage should be approx 0.5volts with the throttle closed. Moving it just a millimeter will change this value by quite a bit so test it, move it, test it, move it. Check base timing since advance equals faster idle. As said before, clean the AAC out. If all these things checkout and the idle is still high, simply adjust the idle speed and back it down a bit. Unplug the AAC and turn the screw on the side clockwise.

I've had this fixed for a while now

One of the hoses leading to the air reg had a small split

Very simple but time consuming fix as I hadn't been able to find it till I pulled the manifold off.Gave me a good chance to inspect everything and there was bugger all carbon buildup on anthing which was good.

The TPS on a GTR is mounted on the manifold not on the throttle bodies so theres no chance of spraying it when cleaning.

Thanks for all the advice, really happy its fixed.

i have an r33 and im getting weird idle probs also, the car was sometimes stalling becuase of extremely low revs but since yesterday it is idleing at around 1300 - 1400 rpm, with the occasional rpm spike, but will never drop below 1300rpm

im taking it to the local performance shop for a checkup, ill let you know what they find.

cheers

(if anyone has any ideas, let me know)!

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
