hey guys,

Just a final update. I flew back from Japan yesterday, after going to a few tracks and many in depth discussions, I found anyone running a skyline (r33 and 32) were gapping there plugs between 6 and 7, some up to 8 depending on application but no bigger.

I pulled my plugs last night and regapped them down to 0.76mm.

Put them back and took it for a run. Car runs perfect. No missing accross the full rev range at all. And my missfiring has gone at idle as well, perfect idle. Drove it to work today and was perfect. So in the end, i've gapped from 1.1 down to .9 which was better but still problems. After dropping to 0.76, it was perfect.

I will be getting splitfires shortly, but at least i know i what the problem was orginally.

Cheers for all your help guys.

No worries mate!!........

As per yourself I'll continue to run <>.75mm, regardless of any further advice to the contrary, as this has solved many issues for me since i started utilising this method, on MY car.

I will also save my money, and not get Splitfires, as my current performance would not improve, with that particular mod.

I'm saving for some new 'synchro's'........lol!...now that's really gunna improve a lot of things !!!! (except for the bank balance).

Well done...and regards,
