Hey mate, contact DVS JEZ if you get stuck and need someone to look at it for you!

Also, there is a cruise on the 16th if you are sorted out and keen! Its more a meet and greet type thing so bring your beast out and show it off!

Yeah Jez did my tune few months back, good bloke, car came out great. Until now. Can't really do much over the top cash being tight these days

:/ it'll get there hopefully it's running mint by the cruise so I can tag along

Yeah see if you can sort it out! There is the Newcastle Skylines FB page that you might be able to borrow parts from? Or ask on here.... I dont have access to anything from 32's so i cant really help...

You got more detail on the missfire? Its not likely to be the coils if you have just fit them! On that note WHY did you originally fit them and is this the same issue?

Stock coils wouldn't hold up past 4.5k during the tune so Jez dropped in a set of his splitfires to do it. Bought a set put them in, ran sweet for a couple weeks.

It's popping on boost at 4k+ sometimes misses just as it comes on

Sometimes on startup it runs on 5cyl struggles to rev and spool Put the boot down as it coughs to limiter and it clears up. Only does it about 10mibs after running temp. Plugs are less than 40km old bcpr7es-same as what Jez used. I'm assuming its fuel or ignition

    • The second part yes, the first part about easy VE calculation is something I've seen a few people talk about online.
    • You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate
    • I initially was going to do the whole car with a block then realised, it would be a bigger monster of the job 😂 I guess that's all part of the learning process. I appreciate all that advice, I think I got a good idea on how to tackle this whole job.
    • I admire your efforts with the scuff pad.  As a mere mortal, I use this for the baulk of my sanding work- https://sydneytools.com.au/product/milwaukee-m18bos125-0-18v-li-ion-cordless-125mm-5-random-orbital-sander-skin-only Yes you can easily create a low spot while sanding. There are 2 types of filler, 1 part of 2 part. The 2 part filler will get used for large corrections and the 1 part filler will get used for pin holes and areas that only need slight filling.  Depending on how zealous you are with the sander (very easy to do with a power tool) or if you are chasing rust etc, yes those low spots will need to get filled or you will end up with a very obvious defects in the paint.  Using the guide coat and large sanding block, high and low areas will be revealed (watch youtube videos for a good visual on this). Its up to you if you think its worth the effort to make the car completely flat before you spray it (you make it flat by filling the low areas).  At the end of the day, it comes down to time. The end result comes from the level of prep put in to the car. If you want a perfect result, you have to put in the time during the prep stage or else it will be impossible to achieve a perfect result during the spraying process.
