So my symptoms were classic... runs good at start, then once it warms up, idle goes nuts... 2500-3000 or more. Had to leave it in gear with clutch half out at stoplights for fear of roasting the motor. Used the search function and read countless posts on the topic, which mostly all alluded to a leaky intake system. Thanks to some of the wily veterans on the forum..namely Cliff, Bwinger, Nessism.. for their brimming over confidence in the diagnosis of these kinds of common problems.
Long story short, I bought O-rings and boots and weatherstripping and did up the whole kit-and-kaboodle... and sure as hell... when I put everything back together and went for a rip, the idle stayed at a nice 1000 every time I stopped for a light. This is a massive victory in my books. Thanks to every single soul who has contributed to this forum. I'm sure I saved myself 500$ that I would have spent taking this to a garage. Not to mention the sublime satisfaction I received doing it myself. GSR is awesome.
