Hi Guys,

i have a problem with my r34, when i am idling, i turn the steering wheel and the car chokes like hell, its like its misfiring like crazy, its extremely annoying when i reverse park. it only happens every second drive or so.

also when i shift to neutral, while rolling at 80km (speed doesnt matter it happens all the time) the revs slowly creep up to say about 1700 then chokes and goes down to 1000, then soon does it again.

can you please help me with the problem?

obviously you have an idle problem, the reason it chokes when parking is the extra load imposed by the steering pump, it would probably also do strange things if you turn off and on the a/c.

so concentrate on possible reasons for not having a steady idle, stuff like O2 sensor, an air leak eg in BOV, dirty throttle bodies, idle control valve, dirty MAF sensor. Could be bad contacts on a sensor.

anything else wrong apart from idle? eg, when cold, or doesn't have the power it did?

Yeah it feels like it doesnt have the power it did, at the moment i have a black hks ssqv. when the engine is colder, at lower revs, the flutter is slower and the valve doesnt open for the whistle yet. but when i drive, more and when the idle problem kicks in, i can feel like i dont have the pull anymore and the bov flutters only a bit and opens for the whistle earlier.

as for the aircon, i have noticed that there is a wierd noise from the engine bay, it sounds like a weak lamb lol.

can you tell me how to check and where for these problems? i might actually try and block off the bov port, will that f**k up the turbo? maybe it could be a air leak from the bov.

thanks for your help money, really had excellent points that i will check up on.

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones

      No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.

      You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
