I might pop down late this arvo in a hope it's on the rollers

Yeah.

I don't think it is my coils, I took it for a drive and no issues at all under any load on the factory ones yet when I free rev it around 4k it starts breaking down same as it did with the yellow jackets last night.

I am starting to think it may be over fueling when no boost is being fed in while free revving.

Put the boot into it on the highway and she goes like crazy with no issues exactly the same as it did on the yellow jackets before servicing.

Morning Mangs, got the car up and running on factory coil packs, I took it for a drive but I have not free revved it like I did with the other coil packs.

I will take it for a good drive and see how she goes. May be time to order new coil packs

:) check below

Yeah.

If the only thing moved/disconnected was coil packs to change plugs then it is typically coils. if not, Check leads next, if not then igniter might have a fault.

Just checking with this question, did you change the timing belt/move sensor to do so?

Yeah.

If it's breaking down UNDER LOAD then it will be coils or there abouts... If it's only doing it when free rev the you could have another problem like you said...

Morning all

Morning mate

Sounds like a good plan

Igniter is in the coils, does not look like loom or coils TBH they operate under load and at speed, not plugs either.

Background on the car:

400rwhp r34 gtt

never had an issue with missfire ever

109000K's

only missing at revs while free revving

no issues under load or at max boost (23psi)

I've currently in the process of increasing my curling weight from 15kg to 17.5kg. For the last week I've been doing a set consisting of 8 reps on 17.5, 10 reps on 15 then finish with 10 reps on 12.5kg. That's my super set, I take a 1min rest between these sets and do a total of 4 sets.

Can't lift even an apple afterwards

Yep need a straw and a bench to drink water lol

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
