[illusiVe]

Well at the moment, im broke. method of payment can be in beer form (case) or something if u could help me out would be awesome.

basically as described in so many threads, the car starts to after fire under boost/ heavy acceleration. I've been told fouled spark plugs is 99% chance of what it is..and well...i agree.

i've seen http://users.bigpond.net.au/r33skyline/r33/sparks.htm

but im not confident enough to pull apart my engine/engine bay YET. Im happy to do the labour if someone can just point and say do this, do that. so yer, im avail this wednesday (1st) if anyone could help us would be awesome

Also think I/we may need to tape up the ¿coilpacks? ...gotta love engine n00bs

Im springwood/lower blue mountains -> willing to come to you (please dont be toooo far)

Car is R34 GTT

thanks in advance

Im always happy to help, If you dont get a closer offer, Im at castle hill, PM me and I will send you my address. No issues with Wed arvo anytime after 5pm.

I have done my GTR a couple of times, but never done a GTT before, but once the top cover is off it should be the same. I have the tools and am happy to help.

I assume you have the new plugs and know what gap you want?

First of all questions.

What boost are you running?

Are the coil packs stock?

Oz, easy enough for you to figure out, but the throttle body doesn't need to be removed is the only tip necessary.

[illusiVe]

boost low=7 high = 9.

coil packs = stock (unless someone has changed them)

i think ill take up your offer OZ (and borrow ur engine)

i've been told .8 is what i want. ill get some new NGK plugs wed morning (pm being sent shortly )

If you go to Auto One in Springwood they have R34s listed in their catalogues. don't forget to tell them it is a turbo.

When you get the plugs give me a call. I am happy to give you a hand. I'm at Bullaburra, just up the road.

i got a friend who will attempt to help tonite, if no luck ill try auto one + call u bonkers (once i finish work)

then oz GTR due to only avail after 5pm

good to see the love is all around.

[OZ GTR35]

no probs, bonks is king, your be sweet.

[Tosh]

I'll bet money that it's coils if the plugs don't do shit

[illusiVe]

Problem solved.

Plugs were dirty dirty, so cleaned those, coils look fine.

test drive - no fix

so we reset ecu (no power for 10 mins) and well.......that worked the wonders

fully sick like working

[Duncan]

hmm be careful you can't really clean platinum plug you will just wreck the coating on the electrode.....better off to put new plugs in, copper are nice and cheap just change them every time you change the oil

[illusiVe]

yer, unfortunatly none avail @ 9-10pm, but we used a rough scrubbing brush (not metal) so it should have left the coating on

thanks to everyone who has helped and offered help, their time and advice ....im sure it wont be the last time.

Glad to hear the car is going OK. I have to agree with Drunkan about changing plugs, however I would stick with platinums simply 'cos of the rooting around factor involved in changing them.

I will give you a call anyway, I'm going to the Royal on Saturday night for a few - I'll see if Fatz and Majanal will be along as well. A mate is playing in the band "Enormous Hornbags". Should be a bit of Blues Brothers type music.

sorry boys im working that nite so u wont see me @ the ori or the royal.
