hello everyone, i own a series 1 R34 GTS-T... options include powerfc with hand controller, hks injectors, bigger turbo, front mount, and a few other goodies but lately, my beast has developed a nasty habit, at idle the engine seems to hunt from around 1000rpm to 16-1700rpm at constant intervals, the hand controler tells me that the inj duty is cutting out and thats y it decreases but i dont know y it increases to begin with, i first assumes a dirty idle control solenoid, so i removed it and cleaned, and plugged in to test the opperation, i could se that the solenoid was working fine and had no blockages, the next step is to inspect the steeper motor but i do not know what it should be doing... i have searched all the vacum lines and am 98% certain that there is no vacum leak, the throttle body appears to be clean and good

i ask if anyone has every had any simliar problems with hunting in the R34 neo and how did you fix it? i would love to get my hands on a wiring schematic so i know which wires i can back probe and check for faults...

PLEASE HELP ME... or point me to someone who can :pirate:

i appreciate any help you can give

Ignition coils misfiring maybe??? or burnt out sparkplugs??? :pirate:

I had a similar problem.. but then again I've got a GT .. there's a lot more going on in your engine bay than mine..

Hope you figure it out :D

ok for starters, it may not be a GTS-T it was debadged when i bought it, but it most definalty the 2.5 NEO turbo, i dont know the diference between the GT or GTS-T...?

ok now back my problem..

yeah im fairly certain that there are no vacum leaks, iv inspected the various pressure sensors, pollution gear, iv had the air flow meter out to make sure its not damaged, i havent had the spark plugs out yet but i guess that i should look there next, but im am curious about the steeper motors, has anyone had any problems with these before, and once again, does anyone have any wiring diagrams for the engine management? or where i can get them from (buy them from)?

heres a pic i just took in the worskshop! still along way to go to glory but its good for 250rwkw at the moment, plans for bigger high mount turbo, custom plennum etc etc.. :teehee: if i can ge this stupid problem fixed, any longer and im just going to have to tkae it a pro in brisbane or something, anyone recomend someone who knows 34's in brisbane?

Sounds ignition related. Get the coilpacks and plugs out. Change the plugs anyway.

The AAC valve might be related to it. Maybe your oxygen sensor is kaput.

I was going to say 02 sensor as well, they do funny things on the R34 when they play up/die, but normally they make the engine hunt low-down then stall on hard braking.

Hunting high then low has always pointed to a dodgy throttle position sensor in my book, sometimes something as simple as taikng the connector off then putting it back on can fix a poor contact with the plug :ermm:

thanks heaps 666DAN, this is the sort of thing i have been looking for, but... will it still apply since i have a range of aftermarket gear such as the apexi computer, avcr boost controller, different injectors and other differetn goodies, i supose i will have to try... so far, i have tried remvoing different electrical conections while the car is running, removing the sensor of the stepper motor stops the hunting but the revs then sit alot higher, removing the tps sensor also does teh same thing, i have removed the air flow meter and inspected for damage or obstruction to the air flow over the sensor and it all appears to be fine, when i disconnect the air flow meter when the car is running the car simply stops, no waht revs, however in the apexi controller settings, i can change it from standard R34 airflow meter to the other options, it settles the idle down to normal but spits that much fuel out the exhaust that i could catch it with a bucket, i have a feeling its a problem with the air flow meter but i cant be certain without knowing what voltage signal is suposed to be generated at what RPM the same goes for the other sensors, all i could do is try a different airflow meter to see if it changes it, problem is thier are only 3 other R34 skylines in bundaberg and have no idea who owns them or how to get in contact with them.

does anyone know how to get hold of the origianl workshop manuel (including full diagnostic procedure) that has been translated to english... there is no one in town who knows anything about this problem (or wants to know) iv tried other forums and got no response...

the proble is so bad that i have to put the brakes on the make the car run below 2000Rpm, i can drive the car up to fith gear without ever touching the accelerator, it makes it very hard in stop go traffic or thru drive thrus, and other annoying places... to the point where i hav parked the car al together and have resorted to driving my old crappy N/A VL berlina...

I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

once again, does anyone know anyone in brisbane sunny coast (or queensland) area who is well capable of helping me fix my car?

once again, thankyou in advance for any help you can give...

Get onto marty at mw performance.He is in maroochydore, i know its a bit of a drive though.He has worked on a few of these he is your man , he has all the diagnostic gear.He can plug it into his laptop and have a look for you.Pm me if you want his details.

also apart fromt the hunting at idle does it seem to drive ok on normal driving? Have you checked your wiring to the injectors or your fuel pressure to them? your pump might be shagged.

      Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
