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

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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
