Hey, im having a few issues with my idle at the moment i did a search but nothing really came up just wondering if anyone has any ideas on what might be wrong

ever since the cruise last friday night (did give the car a bit of a hammering) it has been idling at about 1200-1400 rpm where it usually idles at 800 rpm does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

:D

Hey Matt, have you tried having the car idling and slowly tightening the screw on the IAC? The more you tighten it the more lower the rev's become on idle. Originally my car idled at around 1100rpm, tightened the screw and its about 750rpm now.

I'm not sure if it would be that because I dont think it would come loose from giving the car a hammering, but you may as well give it a shot if ya haven't already :P

if you have been giving it some - you may have just covered a sensor in a smidge to much grime. Now you have something to do on weekend :P

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
