I had the exact same problem. Under load above 4000rpm (dependant on load situation) both on road and on dyno (ramped, etc) when accelerated hard my car would have a miss and sort of hesitation. If i eased on the accelerator, the problem did not occur. We changed fuel pump, had all injectors flow tested, etc, as they are brand new, and car still hesitated (missed). I WAS running NGK platinum plugs (gapped to 0.8mm) and the car still had same symptoms (exactly like you are saying). I have super tech valves with titanium retainers, etc, 1.5mm overized valves stainless on intake and nitrite coated on exhaust. My springs are 95pounds at the seat and still car hesitating under load. Problem was found that my spark plugs were arching out under load. (Simple rule of thumb for old school mechanics - plugs up top, points down low) checked my coil packs, they were fine. Changed the plugs to v-grove and solved my issues instantly. Have also since put SplitFire coil packs and HKS plugs. I was running 12psi when this was occurring so had nothing to do with coil binding or a dud valve spring.

That's just my two cents. Hope this info helps.

I'll mention this when I speak to them today. Cheers for the input ;).

Paul I know you mentioned the timing looked good but might pay to call ross about the trigger kit a local company here in bris was having miss fire issues on there car and they traced it back to something in the trigger kit arrangement. Sorry this is second hand information so i dont all the details but thought was worth a mention..

We had what seems to be that issue you're talking about in 2011 when I put this kit on. The issue for us was the GT101 sensor was not PERFECTLY in line with the trigger wheel. New bracket has since been made. There's no logs of issues with timing or anything. When we had that issue we were seeing RPM logs of 86,000 RPM, 44,000RPM and would be hitting the RPM cut. Sound similar?

Again this is second hand info but they were talking another revision something to do with the cam sensor though.

I heard pauls testicles had shrunk so much he has started investigating plastic surgery to have a vadge grafted onto himself? Who woulda thought an electrician would have small balls?

On a brighter note, hurry up and launch it brah

skidz for kidz, or fatz maybe

Any updates on the strange miss yet ?... Want to see the figures this will put down in anger .

Sitting here with Yavuz in a hotel right now. Nothing happened today. As soon as I know it'll be up here. ;)

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
