I have a 95 r33 gtst...

Its had a shitty idle for quite a while. Ive attached a link to an excel sheet with a datalog from the nissan datascan software.

It shows a warm start, idling for a moment, then easy acceleration to 100km/h.

I would really appreciate it if I could get some opinions on it. The only thing I notice is the very very unstable timing at idle.... but what on earth could be causing this??

Thanks in advance.

Is the value of AF Base the learned AF correction? In which case it is quite lean. Check the O2 sensor grounds and its bias with chassis and ECU ground. Also maybe a noisy crank signal. Try running another ground to the CAS. If this dosn't work try one from another car.

Ok, swap tested the CAS.... same deal. WHY!?

Not the AFM, O2 sensor, plugs, coils, battery, CAS, AAC valve. I tested the A/F ratios with a wideband O2 sensor & they were spot on too.

I got a shit idle, no power, and my ignition timing is all over the shop.

I'm gonna drive the f**ker off a cliff!!!!

The pfc uses ign in an attempt to lower idle in conjunction with the AAC.

This is what it looks like it is trying to do.

Whats your base idle set to in the pfc?

I would disconnect the aac and reset your idle when warm to as close but ensure its not over the pfc's set idle a/c off. Reconnect the aac.

Init the pfc, load in your maps, start the car and send it through the 30min idle learn. For the next few days it will still occasionally play up, let it do its thing then all of a sudden you will think.. oh shiet its idling perfectly smooth.

DO NOT attempt to change the idle rpm as it will bugger it up and you will constantly have a crap idle from then on. For some silly reason I've always had to init the pfc for it to relearn the idle properly.

If this doesn't work ensure your aac is clean from gum (remove and pull apart, soak and clean) Also ensure the solanoid is working. Hitting the A/C button is an easy way to test, idle should raise, same with turning your power steer.

I would then attempt swapping of the cas and all the other harder and more expensive solutions. :nyaanyaa:

mate, i cant set a base idle.... doesnt matter how i adjust the cas, the timing will jump everywhere at idle. I have tested my datascan cable & software on another r33 & got a rock solid 15 degrees...

plug gap is .8

cubes, i actually have a pfc by the way... havnt had it tuned yet coz i wanna sort this shit out first... but i CANT!

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
