BROOOOOOOO!!!!!!

No more missfires! ahaha

Bought a set of splitfies today, I was too psyched and impatient to wait for the weekend. (left work early and everything lol)

Thanks for the help.... I love you guys :cool:

Haha glad to see this thread is helping lots of people with missfire problems.

All you guys who have bout splitfires and fixed the missfire problem, are you running sparkplugs with a 0.8mm gap or the stock 1.1mm gap?

Glad to hear. Coils should last a long time. Now to save $500

Do you think its worth checking the injectors (pulling the injectors out and getting them cleaned, or even running injector cleaner through) before i spend an arm and a leg on the splitfires?

Up to you. I know that my missfire is electrical so getting splitfires will fix it. If your coilpacks are going ok then getting splitfires wont help much. U can usually feel if its because somethings dirty and cloged up like injectors or sparkplugs compared to when the coilpacks are not producing a strong enough spark. Maybe try cleaning the injectors first as its cheaper and cant hurt. Otherwise you could take it to a tuner and get their opinion of what they think is the problem.

Hope that helps :P

Well it depends when it all started happening. My car started doing it ever so mildly when I put my fmic on. Then it was missfiring horribly when I put my exhaust on.

So I knew that they were they were the problem, I just didn't know how to get rid of the missfiring until I read this thread.

In other words, if your car started missfiring for no reason at all, I would probably get it looked at. But if you placed a FMIC on or similar it's most likely the coil packs. Thats what happened to me.

I put on the fmic and it was fine, i put on a turbo back exhaust and it was alright, it wasnt misfirring but the car wasnt smooth, it would pull to about 6 grand and then pull much harder from 6 to redline. I then put on a avc-r and still the car wasnt misfirring. After a week or so ir just started happening randomly, and now it even does it on standard boost (when avc-r is turned off).

Yeah rb engines start misfiring when breathing mods are upgraded. Exhaust, intake - cooler. Increasing boost will cause it to misfire too. This is because the coilpacks are old and weak. You will need to get new coilpacks or gap spark plugs till you get some.

I "had" the misfiring problem. Not anymore since the 6 coil packs and coil pack harness arrived yesterday. Three of my coil packs are clicking badly like every 4 sec and then the car jerks aka misfire. I changed 3 of the coil packs (front the front of the engine, the 1-2-3 ones. I also dropped the new coil pack harness (my old one was like what a dog would chew on) and no more misfire. Car runs smooth now. The initial problem was that my car only misfire at idle. I also have a FMIC Installed. Everything is stock atm.

Btw i got the used coilpack and harness from Raw Brokerage. Great service and the price was cheap (compared from my local wreck shop)

    • That's f**ked up. I'd guess it's more likely that you have an entire S13 subframe in there. Does it still have HICAS mounting points? Seeing as it is quite possible that yours is the only such converted car in the world, you'll probably struggle to find someone who can tell you from direct experience. 'Twere I you, I'd be looking for 4 stud Skyline rear brakes and convert back. At a minimum. Preferably go find all the stuff you need to put it back to 5 stud (assuming you're happy to change wheels) and upgrade to some decent brakes. You don't even need much stock stuff. Don't need calipers or rotors, as you can go fully aftermarket. Just needs hubs and the other bits and bobs that are different to what you have now.
    • The engine has nothing to do with it. The physical space behind the headlight is the limiting factor. And the height. The height of the NS70 is the same as stock. So the clamp bar across the top goes on nice. The battery tray is big enough for it to sit on. The X is for extra capacity - it has even more lead in it than the non-X NS70. Heavy f**ker. But it's not a track car, so I will suffer a couple of extra kg. In the case of the R34, maybe the physical space there is not as deep (forward-backward, not up down). Hence why they say the 60 is the biggest. But I would never trust a catalogue to tell me what will fit. I have the car. I have the existing battery. I have the tape measure. I have the dimensions of all the available batteries. I find the biggest box that will go in. (With the right terminals in the right places, of course).  
    • Hello! I have been having a hard time finding the answer to this question… I have a R32 GTS-T Sedan than has been 4 lug swapped using S13 hubs, rotors, and brakes. The front has also been converted to S13 suspension.    When the swap was completed, the handbrake cables were never hooked up, as the S13 rear calipers are the “handbrake”, and not the typical drum on rotor that the R chassis are. Does anyone know handbrake cables that will work for this conversion? I’d like to not use a hydraulic handbrake and stick with the traditional cable style. My original thoughts were to go with S14 cables and try to make them work, since I’m pretty sure S13 cables will be too short.    Any help would be appreciated!
    • I did some research, considering you have a neo engine, how is that battery compatible? I checked centuries website and super cheap and says it's not compatible. Only this full size one is. https://www.centurybatteries.com.au/products/ns60-mf
    • No, lets be honest here. I went to Winton and did a track day, for all the mods and V8 power and craziness I posted up a time that a K24 stock motor Honda Accord can do on the same tyres (narrower, too) 250kw and learning how to drive the f**kin thing is the sweet spot.
