Meh its got the classic rb25 misfire anything over 10psi.

Ive checked the gaps, and they are all 0.6-0.7mm

Checked the coils, and I cant seem to see any cracks?

Ill just save up for the splitfires.

Doesn't necessarily have to have cracks on the outside of the coil boots. They usually burnout on the inside due to age.

Another thing to check would be taking the boots off from the coilpack (just pull them off) and making sure all the springs are still inside. They can break and fall out with age and therefore there will be a gap between the top of the plug and the coil causing the current to have to jump. You will see burns on the coilpack if this has happened.

Another thing is to run BCPR plugs instead of the more common BKR plugs since they are a bit taller and compress the spring more giving a better connection.

Also saw PM-R33 car out at autobarn.

Saw when you were being interviewed.

Seem to know your shit eh?

Yeah I'm the manager there.

Interviewed?

Interviewed?

May just have heard wrong, sorry.

Im very new to the whole nissan thing. Owned it less than 2 weeks.

I dont know why there is soo much trouble with coil packs, if it is the coil packs.

My last car, a corolla, had nearly 200,000km on the engine and it ran boost levels from 8 psi to 25 psi for 2 years, and its still running.

And that is all standard ignition, with standard copper plugs gapped to 1.1mm.

Thanks for the suggestions too, i will definitely have a look at the boot and springs.

The car has been tuned to run 12 psi, which it ran great on the drive back home. Then it slowly started to misfire a week later. Bastard.

Runs perfectly fine on 10psi though.

*Anyone in townsville have cheap splitfires though...*

Noob, bring the thing over at some stage, and I'll go over it for you. If I need, I'll ring Phil and a couple others to get clarification..........

Different car, different motors, cant compare really.

I'm sure we can get you a set of coil packs for the motor if it's that.

@tobu, u dont need a z32 afm for nistune, incase u wanted to get ur cash back, and ur going to paul for the tune? i would ask around a little more...

Really, I thought the z32 afm would help with the tune? Because the one I bought ended up being a knock off anyway. As for the tune... Paul's had the car since Tuesday. I'm going to head down there this morning and see what's happening.

Just an update: Please let me know if this doesn't belong here...

Paul @ xtreme wasn't able to get any of his laptops to talk to my ECU through my USB consult cable so he wasn't able to do a tune but he did fix up a few air leaks and pointed out a crack in my radiator that means it'll need to be replaced...

After about ten minutes of mucking around I managed to get my laptop talking to it and I was able to mess around with the settings (lol 2000RPM rev limiter) so now I'm looking for someone who will be a good fit to do the tune, replace the radiator and plump the BOV in (It's blowing to atmo and causing the car to stall when you let off).

Any suggestions?

Ive got my 32 carbon fibre grill for sale if any one wants it. $150 ono and its yours. Lost motiviation to fit it so its just sitting around and i want to get my bike back on the road asap. Pm me or 0419742800

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
