I Have an R34 GT N/A and I rebuilt it and converted the working engine With:
-CP Neo forged pistons
-Manley Rods
-Garret Gt3071r DDB Turbo
-Series 2 stock fuel rail and injectors
-Series 2 exhaust manifold
-SplitFire Neo coils
- New iridium NGK Plugs 
-255 Walbro Fuel Pump
-Freddy Forward Facing intake
-Stock GTT R34 NEO Turbo ECU
-Many Many more....

After my conversion build with all new parts, i primed it and started on the first Crank. 

CURRENT STATUS:
-Crank and starts instantly every single time and runs only when applying throttle  

THE PROBLEMS

- Sounds great however it if you do not apply throttle and leave her idle, she is struggle to breathe and stutters and will die
- Jumps up and down the rev range by her self 
- Cannot find a decent idle and when she does its not for long
- After reeving and she goes back down she dies
- Sometimes when reeving she break up on her own

SOLUTIONS/TROUBLE SHOOTING 

- TPS sensor needed to be adjusted to get the right Ohms. After we fixed it it seemed to be more consistent when reeving and staying and holding at an RPM's and slightly better idling.

- Idle air Controller,  adjusted the screw and tried over 10 positions, although it actually really helped idling it still did not cure the dying at idle problem and finding a good idle problem.

NEXT STEP (tomorrow) 

Take a look at the base/ignition timing with a timing light to the notches on the crank pulley and adjust it with the CAS sensor?

DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH IGNITION TIMING? HOW DO I DO IT PROPERLY? WHAT DO THE NOTCHES INDICATE? WHAT NOTCH DO I WANT TO BE AT?
 

ANY ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED


 

 

There is a good guide on timing in this thread. BUT use the no 1 spark lead not the loop at the back of the engine.

You will need a Nistune chip in your ecu, a better AFM and probably better injectors.

I take it you have properly cleaned your idle valve and have your BOV plumbed back and not venting to atmosphere.

UPDATE: for anyone who may be interested and can learn from this in the future....

It was MY Idle Air controller unit and it also being not having the vacuum lines  plumbed correctly.
After this a few test drives, adjusting the idle air screw and letting the ECU learn, i am almost completely sorted

    • The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.
    • Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine  
    • Yuh, My new R34 box is sitting on the workshop floor (in its large shipping box, which is a nice thing on its own), along with a front plate to convert to push clutch. There was no way I was interested in rebuilding my existing one. Was only partly interested in the risk of buying a used one. But, if you want a 2nd hander, I can point you to one in/near Melbourne at least. @Komdotkom has one that should be in good enough condition to be usable. I don't think it's in a for sale thread, you'd have to message him. @redzedhas one that definitely needs a rebuild.
    • I used to love going to Amaroo to watch the HQ series go for broke (eventually stopped due to lack of spare parts) and also the Porsche series.  It was so cool to back your car up to nearly the edge of the viewing barrier and party with your friends, having a bbq and alcoholic/non drinks. It was such a family/mates atmosphere
