Guys, have an issue with a friend's GT-R, it runs rough.

Car starts okay, idles okay, won't hold revs properly over 2,000 rpm. Sounds like ignition breakdown. It used a heap of fuel when I drove it to my place. I thought it was AFM issue, did the solder fix no change.

So far I've swapped the following from my GT-R:

AFM

ECU

Ignitor

Coilpacks + spark plugs

CAS

I checked IC piping, all joints look good. Engine sounds okay, turbos are okay as well (makes 12psi no worries).

Timing is good (15deg), cam gears are lined up.

Next step: swap fuel rail and fuel pump. Might be FPR but not sure, didn't notice heaps of black smoke.

Any tips/suggestions/past experiences?

Battery looks pretty new.

Timed the engine properly, it was out one tooth <_< Someone dodgy did the timing belt on it.

Anyways it was running okay, still misfiring (coilpacks maybe), then blew the head gasket haha.

Thanks for your help people.

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
