Hi guys, i have a r33 gts-t. My revs are often very unstable, occasionally i switch my car on and the revs keep on moving all around the place.. between 500and 1000 rpm. When i accelerate, the rev fluctuations stop. Or if i leave the revs fluctuating for a short while, it goes back to normal..

I was wondering if anyone would know what is causing this problem, it becomes quite difficult to drive in low revs the car keeps on jerking.

I have a BOV fitted, could this be the reason?

also, sometimes my car almost stalls as i try to take it out of a parking, the revs drop so low that it almost switches off, when u step on the accelerator the revs climb up and it switches back on.

Lastly, when my car is switched on but not moving, if u turn the steering wheel the revs drop very low and the car almost turns off.

Somebody pls help!! i'm beginning to think i made a wrong purchase...

All help will be appreciated,

thanks

You have a BOV that vents to atmosphere?

Or the AAC valve needs cleaning (do a search).

get rid of the atmo bov, this is causing your problem. the engine expects x amount of air in the system your bov opens to amto and air gets vented to atmosphere but the engine still expects that air in the system so it adds corresponding fuel to that amount of air but the air is gone and mixture is wacko and it stalls. change to stock bov

Engine is under vacuum at idle, so BOV leaks additional air into the engine, severely leaning the mixture.

    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
    • Nah, I definitely do that kind of stuff with my car. I do drive it around as a daily! It's just that mindset about building a car to actually still use/retain it's function as a car is rare. If you modify your car into a weekender, IMO you've ruined 5/7ths of the fun. It should remain fun to do daily errands in.
