Hi Everyone,

Well i've got the car in the garage now. Picked up my RB20DET powered GTST4 from townsville an drove back to cairns today.

The car ran pretty well, until i'd run the first 100k's, and then it started having its first issues....

It seems that its dropping ignition in at least 1 maybe 2 cylinders. I've already spoken with a few people and they say its probably the ignitor coil packs.

The funny thing i've since found out is that the don't play up if the engine is cold or warm. Only when its fully up to temperature does it really start to miss.

So tomorrow i'll be swapping plugs, oil change, filter changes, diff oil change, and see how things look after that.

Anyone have any other suggestions about my ignition issue? Could it also be the ignitor module thats mounted on the rocker cover?

actualy sounds like the ignitior, they are known to crap out especialy if its dropping more than one cyl at a time.

happend to a friend of mine, couldnt figure it out but ended up being the ignitior.

both coils and ignitor are suspect, check both.

      Took it for a drive to do some logs, I’m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, I’ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmation  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4   idle video from that day just because

      How old is too old for tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.

      I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine

      Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me

      Ok got some old tyres for you guys...my car has been sitting around un-driven for about 6 years now. I had it on the original rims with the shitty compliance tyres it got it with back in 2006, which were manufactured in 2004... Sidewalls eventually rotted and split open, obviously no air in them and the rims were holding the car up. Just swapped them with some 17" Work rims and tyres which are probably 10+ years old too but at least holding air
