Oops my bad. I meant the pcv valve. It's on the side of your rocker cover sort of near the throttle body. It basically controls air going into the crank case

Hmm funny you should say that rob82. Iv heard a hissing sound coming from the Egr valve since taking the rocker cover off. Maybe the egr valve is stuffed

I will check the keyway over the weekend. But if it was the keyway wouldn't the timing be erratic all the time?

Hey guys i recently did my 100,000 service and cleaned my throttle body at the same time. Since then my idle seems to go anywhere from 735-775rpm this doesn't bother me to much however at idle my timing is all over the place but only when the car has warmed up and has been revved a few times(figures are from an ecu consult display) Base timing was checked at completion of the 100,000 service and was 15 degrees. If i hold the accelerator anywhere else in the rev range the timing stays constant. It also stays constant when it is cold at idle and adjusts as the car starts to warm up. But as soon as it gets to about 72 degrees water temp when i give it a quick rev it doesn't return to 15 degrees at idle, it will read anywhere from 0-15 degrees and is constantly fluctuating. Has anyone ever had this problem or knows what the problem might be? The car is a 1996 GTS-T

Thanks mate but i have to take it to work. Might wash it tomorrow if i get a chance and hope it stays clean until Sun

Damn it, i have to work all day Saturday now so im not sure when im going to wash my car I dont want to turn up with a dirty near stock Skyline

Ok im in 01- Donnan 32 GTR 02- Kat 32 GTR 03- Troy 33 GTS-T 04- Shell R34 GTT 05- Reece 32 GTS-T 06- Bob?????? 07- Cejay 32 GTS4 08- A20089 R33 GTR 09- ZCR R32 GTS-T 10- Dave R33 GTS-T 11 - Melly R33 GTS-T 12 - Mag86 (Andrew) MR30 Ti (pending mobility /painkillers on the day) 13 - Luke R33 GTS-t 14 - R33_ACT (Rob) R33 GTST 15 - Michael R33 GTS-T

Wouldn't mind coming along but not sure if my car is worthy to enter (edit) i just read the above post so put me down as a maybe for now

Blue R33 going down Hindmarsh Drive blowing flames out the exhaust

Hey mate thanks for your help and advise I will try and bring the car past there in the next 2 weeks, but with work at the moment its hard to bring it there during the day. The more i try to work out what it is myself the more i think it might not be the engine, its almost like the flywheel is out of balance or something

Hmmm ok any volunteers want to lend me there CAS so i can check to see if this is the problem. Or is there a way to test it with a multimeter or something, also if it was the CAS would it come up as a fault code because the ECU says no fault recorded?

Well all bolts are tight. Donnan i would take the car somewhere like that to get checked but i really dont have the cash at the moment. The car has 92,000kms on it so will have to take it somewhere in the next year to get the 100,000 service anyway. Hopefully its nothing major and will last till then.

I changed the oil and filter 2 weeks ago. I will check the balancer bolt cheers

Iv had my Skyline for a few months now and since owning have noticed the engine feels rough between 2500-4000rpm. It sort of feels like it is out of balance or something. Just wandering if this is normal for the RB25 or do i have problems. Car runs perfect besides this and its just got me a bit worried. Cheers

Spotted Kat in the S3 on the parkway yesterday was stopped at the traffic lights at Athlon Drive

Spotted 3 R32s on Tharwa Drive near Lanyon Shops i take it on your way back fom the cruise. I got a wave from the last one in the line

I might be able to make it if i dont have to work. That is if you dont mind a newbie tagging along

Well i put the new shocks in (thanks JD R33) and got new rear tyres, had rego check this morning and failed on front tyres which i thought were fine but inside edge was stuffed (just), after market peddles now i gotta try and find some original rubber things for the originals and it appears someone did a dodgy fix up job on one of the pipes on the exhaust so will prob need a new bit of pipe there. Damn car is costing more money then expected at a bad time of year. Anyone know where i could get the rubber things for the peddles cheers

Thanks guys but im going to buy the ones JD R33 has if they are ok which im sure they will be. Cheers

Hey mate definetely interested in those shocks it would help me out o lot. Are they off a GTS-T or a GTR because i thought there was a difference?? Also i cant PM yet so if you PM me your number i will give you a call and come and pick them up how much yo want for them??

Thanks for the help and advise guys, i just freaked out a bit when i couldnt seem to source any parts. As for the servicing i should be able to do basic stuff myself iv always serviced my own cars but thanks anyway. Hope to meet up with you guys in the coming months if i get a chance but iv just started a new job and have to work a lot of weekends Cheers

Hey mate is the stock suspension in good condition i need the rear shocks with no leaks for rego and how much for postage to Canberra

Hey guys my name is Michael and i bought a 1996 R33 GTS-T yesterday and love the car. My only problem is i need new rear shocks for rego and the cheapest i have found are $700 a pair but i have already blown my budget on the car. So can anyone reccomend where i can get some fairly quick and cheaper then that? My other question was what oil should i be using the engine is stock at the moment and where can i find air,fuel and oil filters for the car? I went down to Super Cheap but the car is not listed for these parts anywhere. Any help or advise would be appreciated cheers Michael
