Hi all,

I am a little concerned with the idle as I just got my r34 2 weeks ago and she idles at 1000 rpm [when warmed up]. The compliance sticker says it should be 650rpm and so does the japanese [OEM] sticker in the engine bay. Supposed to be 650 @ 15 degrees BTDC.

Just wondering what other r34 [turbo] owners cars are idling at?

I can adjust it of course but it seems a bit low and sounds a bit low too [@ 650]? :confused:

Thanks!

Mine's not a 34, but my 33 has always idled high (anywhere from 950-1050...

There is an idle control valve behind the intake plenum... There should be a screw which you can tighten or loosen depending on where you want your idle.

Personally I like having a higher idle - easier to get it off the line :(

Thanks guys!

I have lowered it a bit, its around 850 - 900 atm. On a cold start though it goes up to nearly 1800 rpm! Until it warms up a bit...I know idle normally is higher on a cold start but this is pretty high I think, and also loud with a/m exhaust.

1800.. thats high,

My R33 RB25DET does idle at 0650rpm when warm, which is stock, but i will probably raise it as it's easy to stall unless u give it some. When starting cold i think it stays at around the 1k rpm mark.

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
