Hi All,

I DID POST THIS IN FORCED INDUCTION PERFORMANCE, BUT NEED LOCAL HELP I GUESS :)

I have a bit of an issue with my GTR. When it was just running, it would idle at ~ 1500rpm. So a quick search on the net pretty much summed my problem up.. I had cleaned the throttle bodies while the engine was in bits, and seems like i created the problem for myslef. So the painful process of removing the inlet manifold and throttle bodies to investigate started. The manifold is off, and I inspected the throttle bodies, to find that they were not closing all the way due to some of the (nissan coating) still being there. So now i cleaned them all the way, and they look quite sparkly inside.. I had a look at all the parts, and found that one of the O'rings needed replacing as well, but no matter where I go, I cant find a place to buy them.. I bought new gaskets for the throttle bodies, but dont want to be in a position where i would need to pull them off again.

Anyone know where I can get some of these? and is there anyone that can suggest something similar to the coating that nissan use, rather then using silicone as suggested on a DIY fix (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/286728-nissan-gtr-high-idle-and-throttle-body-fix/page__hl__cleaning++throttle++body). I heard that some of the performance shops dont bother with this, but i would rather be sure..

Am I on the right track or completely wrong..

Well didnt find the seals, but thought I woudl reseal the throttle bodies using the instructions in diy throttle body fix.

However after the pain of putting it all together, the car still idles high :-P

Now playing around, and will see what i can do.. But hope it will all work out good in the end.. Just time I guess. Not lookign forward to pulling the throttle bodies off again.. but at least it is fresh in my memory on what to do now..
