Hey everyone.

Having some major problems with my S2 R33 Skyline Gts-t.

Started off as just a small missfire under 15psi so I had the plugs done coils checked and new Cas put in by a mechanic got it back and it was backfiring and run awful so i took it another shop in melb who i was recommend to due to the wolf 3d ecu they trimmed the fuel changed the plugs again and looked over coils run like a dream for about 2 day and since has developed a lumpy note which sound like a wrx and a very bad missfire through the whole rev range and a few days ago it started stalling when i slowed down nearly as soon as i put the clutch in.

If anyone has any ideas on what could be wrong that would be great.

Cheers

Right .. Well I dont know much but I know a WRX sounding skyline is coils .. so they need to be replaced with either new coils or spitfires.. from what i hear spits are better ..

sorry im not much help but there a short answer to some of it

I was reading today that gtr coils are the best....but costs are higher...therefore you will need to get spitfires...when replacing yours.

On the other hand if coils were checked.....then either your crank angle sensor or something else is wrong....your timing is being thrown out some-how.

Borrow some coils if you don't want to buy them...this will let you know straight away.

I have a set...if you want to plug them in and check...(RB26..are they the same?)I think they maybe.

Done both of that lol, it already has splitfires and had a new cas put in about 3 weeks ago so i have

no idea what it could be, but I have lookin around and the conectors to the coils look really crappy do

you think could have anything to do with it?

Ignitor and cables get alot of heat and can be damaged....also you could be missing because the ignitor is not earthed properly.....Have you got the cover off and the ignitor loose or is it screwed down on cover?

The cost of a new ignitor plus cables is big bucks from nissan...

You will need a car elec. to rewire the whole loom,,,this is a cheaper option if the ignitor is good...

Cant see any other reason this is happening......have you checked your injectors?

Bad pump,injectors and afm's can also play around with missing problems and with afm's running problems...

Yea i was thinking of having a elec lookin at the wires and also because it is a series 2 they dont have ignitor packs which is why u cant put series 1 coils in a series 2, but thanks for the advise i will have 2 have the afm looked at as i think it shouldn't b the injectors or fuel pump due to them being aftermarket parts.

Cheers

Found the problem, although 2 well know shops said my coils where in good order and because they are splitfire they will be fine it turned out 2 of them were rooted and both shops put wrong heat range plugs in, so put new plugs and coils in car back 2 running 15psi without a worries so thanks for imput about the coils guys.

Cheers

    • It's impossible to convey what it will feel like to get the right torque. But you can develop a feel for it. A 900mm breaker bar is.....f**king huge. I only use a normal ~400mm one. But with 900mm being very nearly a metre, and the right torque being in the order of 100Nm, then you're going to need a bit over 100N of force, which is about 10 kg. So if you practice using the bar pulling up, instead of pushing down, then it will be about the same effort as lifting a 10kg bucket of water. That's what the pressure against your fingers should feel like. Ish. If you use a more typical length breaker, then it's about twice that. So a good 20 litre bucket, or a little bit more.
    • Also, if anyone has a torque wrench around Williams Landing area and can lend it to me for like 5 mins - I got 4 bottles of Furphy left and I’ll throw that in with a Happy meal 😂
    • So today I decided to bleed my brake fluid, which meant to the wheels came off the car at my garage for the first time. I only had a 90cm breaker bar with me and I noticed that some 1 or 2 lug nuts were a bit hard to get loose (from when the shop did the coilovers) Now.... when it came to putting them back on, I didn't want to put all my weight and overtighten them. So I hand tightened as much as possible and then put normal pressure on the edge of the breaker bar and tightened it until I couldn't turn it anymore without putting in an effort. Do you think that is tight enough? Or is that still too tight?  They are tighter than finger tight. Last thing I want is to have them strip or warp sh*t. But hard times mean I can't just go down to Supercheap and get a torque wrench 🥺
    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
