well you're car should be idling around 800 +-50 for a gsr

my LS idles around 700 +-50. thats perfect.

what exactly does it idle at when fully warmed up? 750~ or so should be acceptable.

Something as low as 400 rpm would probably indicate something is wrong.

GS-R (B18C1) idle is supposed to be 750 +/- 50 rpm. So between 700-800 rpm.

Don't just start turning the idle screw. You have to warm the endgine, turn off all accessories, disconnect the IACV, and then adjust the screw to 480 +- 50 RPM. When you reconnect the IACV, the idle should increase to 750 +-50 RPM.

You disconnect the electric plug for it. You will throw a CEL when you do this. Clear the code after setting the idle.
