Hey guys just wondering if anyone can help? I ve got an R33 Turbo and when i was driving yesterday i noticed when i came to a stop the revs would start jumping going from 700rpm to 500rpm then back to 700rpm and so on. The car didnt stall but it sounded like it came close a couple of times. Any ideas of what it could be? Cheers

umm i have this problem too very common with an r33 could be a number of things your idle up motor (acc valve) located on the back of the pletum is really dirty, AFM is dirty these two a the first things to try if not dude try your pvc valve like move it around and make sure its in tight, or maybe your coil packs a on the way out

Hey mate did you actually fix this problem or is your car still doing it?

Badga......also check all the vacuum hoses around the engine bay...particularly one leading to the regulator at the front of the fuel rail.

Cheers

Great thanks mate are they the thin black hoses? Sorry dont really know all this stuff yet

i had that problem it was due to my aftermarket blow off valve so u have to increase the idle from that valve from stalling

yeh iv got this problem as well, as soon as i put on a turbosmart supersonic blow off valve it started doing it, about half of the time the car actually stalls, how do you adjust it?

      Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.

      My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )

      Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?

      Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!

      Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
