I swapped cylinder no.2s coilpack with cylinder no.1, after reassembling, cylinder 1 has stopped working based on my ECU test from Nissan Datascan. So it's definitely the coilpack issue like 99% of the other issues here, I was too blind to think it was since I got them new about 9months ago. Trying to get warranty off performance wise now....Thanks for everyone's help!

Additional info: I just used nissan datascan to shut each individual cylinder off after replacing the spark plug in cylinder 2, when i shut cylinder 2 off, nothing happens, which means it's still cylinder two. I'm thinking it will be either the coilpack cable now, or just the coilpack itself. Any suggestions? I just had a thought, I'll be swapping the coilpack from cylinder 2 to cylinder 6 to see if cylinder 6 fails, if it does, GREAT. If it doesn't it rules out spark plugs, coilpacks and leads to coilpack wiring. Is there a voltage meter test I can use on the coilpack to see if it's working properly? Thanks!

Okay, DRY compression result tests again since my friend did it wrong the first time. 150, 145, 148, 149, 144, 146 WET compression test result on cylinder 1 and 2: 168, 171 So from these results it's DEFINITELY NOT the engine itself, but the coilpacks and spark plugs. They are new yellow jacket coilpacks, probably 9months old and has about 8000kms on them. They are also NEW iridium spark plugs NGK BKR5EIX-11. After 8000kms do the spark plugs normally screw up? Cause I'm seriously not looking forward to buying new coilpacks after 400 ish spent on yellow jackets last year.... Here is the pics of the spark plugs: From LEFT to RIGHT spark plugs 1->6 Let me know if you guys need more photos. Wiring, connectors and coilpacks look fine.

okay, i will take it apart again and do a wet compression test, and at the same time I'll post a pic of all the coils and sparkies so you guys can help see if they are the problem. if not then the engine might be failing and it's time for a transplant =[ results soon to come....

would a dirty injector cause misfire at that cylinder?
-
Yes the throttle was held full when cranking....and i never did the wet compression test since the battery ran out after 5 cranks at each cylinder. So I just put it all back together and it's still running really crap =[
-
No, unfortunately, the cylinder that isn't working rules out spark plugs and coil packs because I did the compression test, which means it's an engine problem and not a peripheral coil pack and spark plug problem.

Okay, this is the problem. Last week the car was fine and all of a sudden it has no more power and misfiring really bad. Check engine light DID NOT come on or any other light that was out of the ordinary. Went to a exhaust shop because I thought it was the catalytic converter, turns out, I'm running on only FIVE cylinders. Other symptoms include: - Loss of acceleration - When holding both window buttons down or up on idle, the RPMs drop from about 700-800 to 300rpm. - Unburnt fuel smell coming from exhaust - Exhaust making a 'chug', 'chug', 'chug' sound Just then, I took apart all the coilpacks and sparkplugs to do a compression test and it turns out that cylinder no.2 is giving a drastically lower pressure reading compared to the rest of the cylinders. Now I've been told that this could be due to a valve problem within the engine. I really need a diagnosis on the problem so I can fix it and drive again, so if anyone on these forums could give me some advice it will be well appreciated! Car: 1999 R34 Naturally aspirated coupe - remains stock as rock. EDIT: I forgot to mention that I've replaced the coilpacks and sparkplugs 9 months ago with the best and longest lasting ones eg Yellow Jackets and iridium spark plugs i think, so it's definitely not the coil+sparkies. EDIT2: Forgot to mention the compression test results (dry) from cylinder 1-6: 125, 80, 117, 113, 110, 115 Thanks!

i understand that you're angry about this but i just couldnt hold in laughing when you said that "the just tossed the sleeping bags and pillows on the ground" ROFLROFL anyways, you can't trust human beings, 99% of them are alright its just the 1% that ruins it sorry to hear this, but once someone went through my school locker to steal my old jumper

P Platers Driving Turbos And V8's
Grey replied to Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR's topic in New South Wales
In my humble opinion, driving whatever powered car won't stop you from wrapping yourself around a pole or crashing into someone at high speeds. As a P plater myself, I wish I could drive a twin turbo GTR too. The law is there because it is there. It may be stupid, it may be silly how you can drive a lotus / tesla legally on your P's, but it's there. This leads to consequences such as insurance not paying for the building you smashed down (few tens of thousands), or that brand new BMW you rammed into. Stressing about being pulled over around every corner / street. Other flamers flaming you for driving a restricted vehicle. Too much trouble to consider, the government or whoever made these restrictions are stupid, but we can't do anything about it anyway, why bother? -
Does the factory R34 come as a single spinner or LSD? And if it comes with a single spinner how much will the parts and labour set me back for a conversion to an LSD? Cheers
