R33 Issue

[AFTDRK]

hey guys,

i finally got my 33 down here to adelaide but i noticed that sometimes (80% of the time) when i accelerate from idle i.e at the lights or something. the feels like it is about to stall or something like it would in a manual car (my car being auto) only for a breif second then it moves off and goes fine...

the car in question is a 1996 Gtst series2, with no modifications and 34,000 kms on the clock, the car had not been used much before i bought it as the owner was overseas for quite some time, but it was started and driven occasionally to keep the parts going apparently,

any advice would be very helpful as i am a big newbie,

Regards,

Not sure, probably need more info.........

Could be split vac hose, O2 sensor, AFM sensor, TPS etc etc, try cleaning the afm or TPS, do a search on the topic.

Yea, Ive got a similar problem on my R33.

Its a auto as well. It drops the revs when i back off low revs. Its stalled in the past, so i reset the ecu. Apparently it might be the idle-motor. Might hav to get that looked at too.

Have u got a BOV installed?

+1 for the Air Flow meter.

Easy job to remove and clean even for the novice.

$5 for some carby or electrical cleaner and 10 mins work.

If that's not it, doesn't really matter but 1 thing will be eliminated.

seen this work in countless threads before though.

I'd also look at cleaning the AAC valve.

If you don't know what this is, take it to a mechanic. He should charge you less than 30 mins.
