pull out your spark plugs again and inspect them. that will give you an indication of whether it is a fuel issue. if they are black then it isn't a fuel issue but a spark issue. if they are a light colour then it is a fuel issue. if possible get someone to drive behind you and make it play up. if they see unburnt fuel coming out the exhaust when it missfires then you know it's a spark issue.

legend. will do

how much boost you running?

i have a similar issue and i thought its just the stock ECU fuel cut or R&R, if i reset the ECU it will be fine for a while....

how long was a while.. what did the final problem turn out to be?

he is running stock boost. he said it in an earlier post.

this brother from another mother.. been with the problem since the start of this pain the rear end hole!

its been raining in melbourne. when the spark plugs were changed over, i didnt replace the cover so i dont want to do too much work and, i dont think anyone'll be able to see whats coming out of my exhaust.

generally if the fuel pump is playing up it will usually only be in the high end where it starts to lean out. generally it should be fine at lower rpm as the fuel being used is very low so the pump should be able to flow well enough.

is it worth replacing? exactly as u say it does..

wouldn't hurt to replace it to be on the safe side, however if it isn't the issue then you have wasted a few hundred dollars. you would be best off putting the car on a dyno to get the AFR's checked to see if it is leaning out. that way if the AFR's are fine you can put the money towards finding out exactly what is the cause.

First time Ive had a drama with the car is today :laugh:.

Turns out mines doing same thing, But it does it at anything about 0+. shuders, hesitates, splutters, as if a cooler pipe has gone off :S

all new Gear, intake, gaskets, splitfires, tomei z32, about 80 dyno runs, never had an issue. today started it, driving to work.. this happening >.<...

wat the f!,.. PFC map?

I have no idea bro, sorry. Man, I'm sending the car to a dude in Melbourne that comes highly recommended. Supposed to go today but had a wedding I sorta forgot I had to go to. I'll go to him early on Monday. If he tells me the cars problem, I'll pass that on to you, or if you're in Melb. tell me and I'll give u his details.

the dude fixed it in 15 seconds. f'ing very good guy.

#1, the turbo we changed was boosting (or trying to at least) at 22psi,

#2, the afm was dodge so i replaced with the another standard one,

#3, the loom that sat in the afm was pretty shockingly crusty, so we changed that and he crimped it into place,

#4, the bov i had on the car was pushing a lot of what was in the pipes out, so the sensors got crappy readings and made it try and cut out,

just little bits and pieces. the dude did a massively good job, anybody in melb who wants serious work done to their car should go there.

i hope some of these steps help u in ur problem cuz.

good luck.

    • (Rb25det intake manifold) I’m having a hell of a time trying to find the full part or part number of this coolant hardline so far I was given these (Below) but they aren’t what I’m looking for and was told it’s the IAR or aac valve but that doesn’t seem to be it either. If someone could point me in the right direction it’d be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone has it for sale that’d be great too. I have recently purchased a greddy manifold and I can’t seem to find my old one to pull it off.  (Front Heater Return / Water Pipe (under intake): Primary part: 14053‑21U10 (front return pipe assembly for R33/R34 RB25DET) Alternative listing: 14053‑21U00 (same pipe, sometimes interchangeably referenced)   Heater Feed Pipe: Listed as 14075‑04U00 or feed-related variant 14053‑AG500)    
    • This sounds cool. But, as per usual, anything really complicated like that, that I take on, constitutes a steep learning curve that I never actually "learn". I just get it working, install it and start using it. Then, when it breaks a few months later, I've got no memory of what I did, how I did it, or even the bloody IP address I gave it. I'm having more or less exactly that problem right now. My Proxmox machine was discovered to be non-responsive, and the VMs on it were ditto. Power cycle it to a stream of loud Dell beep codes - which was unpopular at midnight, I can tell you. Move it to the lounge room so I can HDMI it to the TV for a screen, see the boot messages complaining about the /PVE/data having all sorts of LVM problems, saying it needs to be fixed manually. And I'm like....great. How am I going to work out what I need to do? At least it wasn't the stupid Silicon Power SSD shat itself. Mental note for all readers - DO NOT BUY SP SSDS! They are shit. I have had one take out an entire VM setup already, and this one could have done the same. Maybe it actually has. Cheap Chinesium shitbaskets. I won't cheap out again, even on play projects with no budget. Because my time budget having to fix shit is worth far more than the cost of proper parts.
    • I do typically agree. These days even the screens most people use have more of a boot time than the main device. However, I've seen an interesting use of the RPi in vehicle, however it involves effectively building your own OS and MBR, as then it boots up exceptionally quickly, as you don't have everything needing to start up, and you can then also run it up as an RTOS, while still having more compute than an Android can give for things like display, and processing. A very huge task that would be though for Duncan, I'm not sure that's his skill set (or Arduino programming and wiring) ha ha. If end goal is definitely just water cooling, Arduino would be the simpler setup especially for a rookie. If he wants extra display stuff though, bashing some code in Python on an RPi may be the better result for both systems.   Unfortunately the new device I'm building at work which runs a display, is too slow of a display for dashboard style purposes. More extreme low power, update only a couple of times a day type system
    • I don't like "actual computers" for in car use. They take time to boot up, have OS annoyances, and so on. Arduinos etc are ready to go a few seconds after power on, don't mind being agressively powere cycled, because everything is non-volatile, don't mind being shaken and stirred.
    • As Fred would tell us, it's all about interpreting the rules. It's not a water sprayer, it's a water mister... But everything else you've said, 100%! Even a raspberry Pi would be great, use HDMI out for a display, and add a raspberry Pi CANBus hat to read values out from the ECU.
