Hi,

Ive got a small problem that has been bugging me for a while. I recently got my car tuned with pfc and z32 afm at silverwater automotive services. The car cranked out 440hp at all four wheels which i was stoked with but there are a few little issues that need ironing.

Issue 1:

On return to idle, the car dips down to about 500rpm and then back up to the 1100 rpm set idle speed. This is sort of annoying and feels like the car is about to stall but then it picks the revs back up again. I really want this sorted.

Issue 2:

When driving about 3/4 throttle then a slight lift off then back on again, the car seems to buck and jerk, there is not a smooth transition between on and off throttle. I would also like this fixed.

I rang sas as this has been happening since it was tuned, however 'the phone guy' reckons that these problems are common on worked gtr's. I read an article written by Martin Donnon that stated that these problems can be fixed and are quite common after an 'initial tune'.

have you set the base idle proply. with the iac disconnected.

the jurking problem can be caused by the injector pulse turning off on decell and then switching back on when you touch the peddel. there is a setting in the pfc that can fix the problem if that is what it is.

purchase two EIDS PROs from HKS and your problem will be gone.

    • The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.    
    • Bit wet, but YUMMY
    • Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.
    • It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....
    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
