Hey Robin :huh:

Ye, that thompson, covered a while ago... and has been getting some more press lately as they are going to release more stocks this year.

Also on the mis-fire.

ensure the O2 sensor is turned OFF.

this can also cause it :P

Lack of voltage to the coilpack's under highload can cause this aswell especially in cars that have 15yo wiring :P

Got a new'ish loom from a R33 GTR installed the other day... same issue. Now with standard ECU reving all the way through to 8500+ without any issues except heaps of black smoke - this is something that did not happen with the Power FC even when it was working 100% and I could use all the RPM's.

Hey Robin, good to hear you're well. Shame we don't see you round anymore. Just becuase you dont own a line doenn't mean you can't come have some beers with us :)

Still got a line... for now anyway until I get the PFC fixed and a few other things done. Will keep an eye out for a good event or meet in the next few weeks and come along. You still have meetings every month in Sth Melb.? My GTR is looking worse for ware at the moment also so I'm shy about bringing it out in public. Still got a nice shiner down the passenger door and rear 1/4 panel. Fixing soon.

Also good to hear from you Adz

andrew its only an r31 fault :no:

You have no idea how many silvias and later model skylines have this issue.

as for the 31 never had to fix an issue like that.

robbin might need to sneak the dwell up on the coil control on the pfc and also replacing the engine loom won't necessarly fix the problem.

i think your pfc has issues. just get the std ecu remapped for the moment and sell it

Got bigger problems now....

Gave it a good fang on Friday night and seem to have droped oil rings on 1 and 3 cos I put new plugs in yestersday and they are already fowled and blowing white smoke through all the gears. Boost is not a problem and have good compression in all but oil on top of 1 and 3 pistons (can see it when looking down into spark hole) so now need professional help (replace PFC and get oil rings replaced... then sell)

Anyway... kicked ass on the fang (Wrx & VR commo) when I droped the rings (it must have been that cos it was running sweet before) straight after... Farked!

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
    • i need a complete tail light for my R33 GTR if you have please let me know.
    • I need a great maintenance workshop around Idaho, if you know one please let me know..
