if you remove it, you still have to route the coolant line to the iacv.

I cant see the pics. I have a BBK TB.....do I still have the FITV? My idle is always around 1700 and I hate it. Could it be my TPS or FITV or EACV?

TIA

okay. if you have a GS-R intake, here's where it is:

on the BACK SIDE of the throttle body (facing the firewall, below the actually TB opening), there is a small, gold plate with TWO bolts that have phillips screwdriver slots.
take off these two screws. under that will be a white, nylon ring with slots on either side that surrounds some kind of button. thermostat of some sort, maybe? anyway:. use something flat and turn it CLOCKWISE to lower the idle.
i had to screw mine in about three full rotations to lower the idle from 2800rpm to about 1800-1900.

i hope this helps. i've been all over this site and couldn't get a straight answer

if you are REALLY good, you won't have to take off the TB. i left mine on so i could remove plate, adjust, install plate, test car, repeat. i'd hate to take of the TB each time. if your motor is actually IN a GS-R, i doubt you will have room to do this.

you WILL loose coolant when you remove the two lines going into the IACV, so be prepared.
it's easier if you remove the MAP sensor and IACV plugs.
ummmmm. i think that's 'bout it.
oh, the bolts are 8mm, i think. not sure. smaller than 10mm for sure. again, they DO have phillips screwdriver slots in them.

hope this helps anyone with a GS-R intake/TB.

also don't forget to reset the ecu if u adjust the idle screw

Also.. my idle.. cold is 2k.. full warm is 900. (in a 88 crx si)

So it starts off at 2k and slowly falls down to about 400-500rpm as the car starts to warm up! The temp gauge is reading 1/2 way to normal temp. Once it reaches full operating temp the idle is 900rpm...

Dist, plugs wires are new, fuel filter new. ecu is a known good pm6. No codes.


Anyone have any ideas??

no need to adjust the regular idle. this is a thread about the cold start idle. also, if you DO adjust your regular idle screw, i THINK you have to use a jumper on your "plug" if you are OBD I.

anyway, starting at 2k and resting at 900 is a bit high, i guess. the 900 can be fixed by your regular idle screw. the 2k cold start up is close to stock, isn't it? been so long i can't REMEMBER what stock, cold start up is...??? so your car goes:
2000rpm
4-500rpm
900rpm at operating temp?

check your IACV?
