Hi Everyone, im new to signing up here, but I have been browsing these forums for quite a while.

I was wondering if I could get some help:

My R32 (gts-t) is ideling high. (1,500rpm) plus, the car is hungrier for fuel then George W.

When i give the car a small rev, the rpm drops down to below 1, but then goes strait back up to 1,500 rpm

Also, I can smell fuel occasionally when driving, and also in the shed where it is parked.

I have checked the fuel pump, and the fuel lines, all seems fine.

Does anyone have any ideas? Some help would be greatly accepted.

Thanks.

idle screw - look at engine from drivers side - where the top part of the plenum is, just below the throttle body there is a flat-head screw. Turn that (not sure which way), but that should bring your idle either up or down. It might have been to prevent your car from stalling. I'd say change your BOV if that's the case.

Try that, but i could be wrong. Correct me if i am.

      R32 GTR - Where to begin

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      After my million questions, I'll throw in my 2c now.  If I was in your shoes, I would buy the best/most modern ECU available. A Nexus S3 would fit the bill. It is highly likely that this ECU will last the life of the car, regardless of whatever ECU manufacturers develop in the future. Modern ECU's are amazing and will still be amazing in 10 or 20 years time. If you can get e85 relatively close to where you live, I would buy a flex sensor and size the injectors to run e85. I'd go a Walbro 525 fuel pump with relay wiring kit.  Turbo wise, I'd hit up HyperGear and get a pair of the biggest bolt on turbos.  Now for the safety side of things, I'd have the tuner setup the tune to be very soft/safe on 98. Then on the flex tune, a lot of the timing can be put back in on the top end (I'd run full boost on both tunes, but manipulate the power with the timing). This also has the benefit of hopefully delaying the, "bored now, need more boost" that comes with owning a modified turbo car. If you spend most of your time on the 98 tune, the few times your on e85 will hopefully stay special/fun.  The bad news. As your paying for labour and tuning, I don't think this will happen with $10,000. This might be the motivation to learn to do it yourself though, that way instead you'll have the built car and change from the $10,000

      Cheers Duncan, on club reg and very much a weekender, don't drive it all that hard and don't intend to go overboard at any point in the future too. In my 40's and quite mature driver, just want that little bit more from it 😉 Sounds like, after ensuring everything is in good condition, ECU, Injectors, Fuel Pump and a set of turbos is likely to be my path forward.
