Check your PM dude

Thanks heaps for the reply Ninjadust ! $500 sounds like a pretty good price to get all that done I rekon.. was there any oils changed in the 4wd system if so what? Cheers chicane

Hi thanks for the replies! Since I had this problem I did initially try cleaning the hotwire in the AFM (the stuff I used was CRC electrical contact cleaner, same stuff really) I did what you mentioned.. and the problem still existed ;( I borrowed a friends AFM (known good) and I have not had the problem once since I've used that (maybe 2wks now?) .. I have a K&N oil type pod, I dont think that has let any oil come through but I don't know.. I think I may have to just bite the bullet and buy a 2nd hand one.. I might pull it apart and have a look and see if anything is obvious (cracked solder tracks etc) but I think the hot wire could be at fault here.. Cheers chicane

Please advise if the AFM is still available.

Jetgts: Is the AFM available still?

WTB: R33 Series 1 AFM (Green Sticker) in working order. Regards, Chicane

reading up about HICAS on here, more often than not it is more of a problem than of benefit... Many people disable HICAS, have a read of this link: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...t=disable+hicas Cheers chicane

Most common turbo conversion with GTS4's would be taking the RB25DET motor from the 4WD Staega and dropping it in..

Does anyone know what the GTS-4 requres? Change of diff oil or anything like that? I guess it would be the same as the GTR's ATESSA servicing..

interested as well.. cheers

Did you experience the same problem with your AFM? Just hoping that indeed this fix is applicable to my AFM problem.. Cheers

Hi all, Last night I headed down to a friends place to borrow an AFM from an R33 GTST (cheers AdamR33) , on the way down there the problem arose 3 times again. - First, after travelling 5km from home on the freeway (100km/h) I stop at an intersection, turn, and the problem occurs - Cant rev over 2500rpm! I pull into a servo with car running, pop hood, unplug AFM, car stalls, plug AFM back in, start car, problem gone. - I drive another 5 km, repeat process, then another 5 and repeat process. Get to my mates, change the AFM over, and I've managed to drive 25km back home and to work today (10km'ish) with no problems. Seems it was the AFM after all. Many thanks for replies helping me with this, now I need to find where to get a replacement/how to repair this one! Is there any way I can measure levels on the pins to determine what the fault is? Regards, chicane

Hi All, An update to the ongoing saga... after leaving the battery disconnected for ~6 hours yesterday (and after cleaning the AFM with electrical contact cleaner) I go back to the car and start it up, and revs past 2500 no worries. What im trying to work out is if my car was indeed in limp home mode, or it wouldn't go past 2500 rpm because thats when it switches from the O2 sensor to the AFM? Manage to get home (~15km) in peak hour with no problems at all. This morning, I start it up, and after letting her warm up I'm sure its all good. Drive about 750m up the street to the main road, Stop at the stop sign, turn and then i cant rev past 2500 again :| I pull over, pop hood, disconnect afm plug when the car is running, car stops. So I plug it back in, start her up, and she can rev past 2500 again, drive all the way to work (~15km) with no problem at all. What gives? I was thinking the problem may have been caused initially by the oil type K&N filter, and as my car was in the sun all day maybe some moisture got sucked over the AFM element or something.. I dunno.. One thing that is similar from this morning and Sunday night, was I could drive for about 1km, then after stopping, the problem arises.. Comments appreciated! cheers chicane

Yeah I've cleaned the AFM/plugs etc.. can anyone confirm if the AFM is the same between NA and turbo skyline? cheers chicane

Hi all, Thanks for the replies. The ECU is stock.. the car is basically stock except aftermarket exhaust / K&N pod filter. Is the AFM for N/A skyline the same as turbo? Could I try an AFM off a turbo skyline? Regards, chicane

Hi All, I am having problems with my R33 GTS4 with the ECU seeming to be in limp home mode (I can't rev it over 2500 RPM).. ive tried the following things: - Reset ECU (Battery Disconnect) - Pulled out ECU, diags return 5-5 (All OK) - Changed Oil/Fuel Filter day before (all fine after changing these, drove about 25km on Sat night and 25km on Sunday morning) - Problem exists still with Disconnected AFM - Thoroughly cleaned AFM element/plug with electrical contact cleaner - Just disconnected battery to ensure the ECU completely resets (will be left for about 6 hours) Any tips/advice is appreciated.. driving under 2.5K rpm sucks!! and I'm worried it may be bad to drive in limp home mode for long.. chicane

try a jap part wrecker

Hi JimX, Many thanks for your reply - I was hoping I wouldn't have to pull it apart but it looks like it will need to be - I'm just thinking where the screws are, is ther 2 screws under the spoiler in the middle and the led lens bit will slide out or something?

Hi all, A friend pointed out my spoliers brake light is no longer working... where should I start looking to fix it? Cheers chicane

Hi Evo_Lee, Thanks for the informative reply.. makes sense I take it the (B) indicates turbo? Can someone take a photo of the HICAS system near the diff on an R33? cheers chicane :burnout: :burnout:

Thanks for your help people! and PVA! :wassup: .. cept for the :cuss: !! Not that with the absence of HICAS one is missing anything chicane
