So I’ve had this car for about three months and it’s had a weird issue running since the day I bought it. Anytime I start it and it’s cold it’s runs good until it’s warmed up but after it’s warmed up and I drive it it starts to sputter when driving it almost seems like it has a misfire but it’s only noticeable when you are stopping and going I have no idea what it could be I looked at the spark plugs and they seem fine just a little worn but I’m starting to think it’s a cool pack issue I’ve gone through my vac lines and it seems like there is no leaks

If this is happening as car gets warmer I'd be looking at the following:
Ignitor module
Coil packs
Fuel pump and associated electrical components.
Alternator output voltage

Also check that the motor is grounded back to the chassis and all grounds are clean.

This is gonna sound dumb but what’s the igniter module 

There is no igniter module. Robbo saw RB20 and glossed over the fact that it's a Neo, that doesn't have one. The old R32 era RB20s did. Your igniters are built into your coils.

All the advice to check ignition components is valid, however hot misfires from failing ignition components usually tend to show up under higher load, rather than just off idle. My question is, is it actually a misfire that you're experiencing, or more of a stumble to near stall? Dirty idle control valves can cause nasty transition from driving to stopping and vice versa. As can dirty TB.

yep, saw rb20 and staright to r32.

Add these to the to do list: 

Get a consult cable and check for error codes
Clean MAF
Clean IACV

@PranK is it time we do a Pinned generic fault to do check list thread?

I’ll get a video for you guys so you can hear what I hear 

Wish I could help with advice but I haven't yet assembled my 20Neo. One thing I've read on the forums here especially about the Neos is a bad ground on the coolant temp sensor. During cold startup the ECU always runs in open loop until a set of parameters have been met and usually ignores the CTS. After awhile it switches to closed loop and starts following your CTS reading. However, if the ground is bad, it will be sending funky signals (if at all) and thus cause the motor to run poorly.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
