Hi guys!!

My GT-R is idling at 1050 rpm. Already cleaned the AAC valve before, butterflies were also checked... the car runs fine though. It's just the idle that keeps me wondering.

So GT-R gurus, is it just fine or there is something wrong w/ it? :/

Thanks in advance guys!

My mate has a bit of poly pipe made up with a compressor attachment and hooks it up befor the intercooler and pushes compressed air into the plenum via the intercooler.

start psi low and move it up to around 20 psi you will find any leaks at all if they are there.Keep a spray bottle with water handy and a peice of hollow pipe to listen threw :).

motor off of coarse.

The ECU needs to be put into base-idle mode or else when you adjust that screw the ECU will just compensate.

Moo - is that info from the shop manual? My memory is that you unplug the electric connector to the AAC to stop the compensation, then adjust the idle to where you want it, then reconnect.

another cheating way of adjusting idle is to have car warmed up, then watch AAC on consult and turn idle screw until its around 20-25. so depending if the AAC starts at ~20 (then u turn it until AAC starts to go up, then stop) or if it starts high (e.g. 40+) then you're turning it so AAC goes down until it stops going down. but this is when the car is running normally and just having minor issues, if there is something else causing high idle then this might not work.

e.g. i used to have warm start stalls due to AAC being too high (40-50) as idle was set too low and not having enough room to catch falling idle.

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
