Morning :)

little intro to the build r32 rb25 with a gtx3582 haltech platinum pro, 1000cc injectors 460 walbro fuel pump “maybe larger” with new lines and relay setup, new fuel lines an a FPR 1200. Made 350kw and Have had the car back now for a couple weeks haven’t had any real issue but this Sunday I got my first issue…. I generally fill up E85 at astron yagoona and with a quarter tank and on the way to a cars and coffee I stopped off at minto and put a full tank in it. 

after about 10 mins of driving and letting it all settle in the car started to misfire and splutter? nothing consistent but noticeable? on the way back spent about an hour on the free way at 110km/h cruising at about 3000rpm and this is where the car started to splutter intermittently and wouldn’t give me any boost if I dropped to 3rd gear would stop and let me have boost then start again when I would consistently cruise at 3000rpm this is where progressively the splutter would get more consistent. 
 

im about to check the fuel but the e85 at minto has always been consistent, I have aftermarket r35 coils and have pulled them apart and they look good to go and injectors sound to be doing there job? 

At idle I don’t have any issues when i let it idle for a while and gave it a few solid revs and nothing? When I got off the motor way and was driving city speeds/ traffic “50km/h” no splutter?
 

Could it be a:

fuel issue?

coil issue?

tune issue?

will go for another drive to see if it starts up again and see.

 

any helps appreciated!!!!

Can you go for a drive, log all the channels and post the data up?

That would be too easy for diagnosing. It's more fun to play throwing darts aimlessly...

 

I vote change the O2 sensor. Reason? None, just a random dart thrown.

Love it haha, tuner came around and checked he said the timing was out and finds the Ross trigger kits to be a bit touch and go… back to his shop Thursday to fully diagnose but he thinks timing is the cause as we checked fuel pump, fuel filter, injectors, ignition and all came back good…. 
 

was very weird tho as only happened under sustained load cruising on the m7 at a sustained rpm and speed it would start sputtering felt like anti lag as when I put my foot down it would sputter or break up and not give me any boost then pull like a freight train when it gave me boost and was all at once

I would be suss that that behaviour was caused by the trigger kit. The trigger kit doesn't really care what the engine load is. It's just seeing moving metal next to sensors. It may fail to work at a particular engine speed, but wouldn't care if it was low load, medium load or high load. And it probably shouldn't change moment to moment. It's either good or bad, unless it is temperature dependent.

The symptoms you describe are typically fuel or spark delivery related.

That’s what I was thinking, builds all under warranty so hopefully they figure it out quickly and I can post what the issue is

I also would like to note that the r35 coils packs are aftermarket… and did note to him I feel that they are possibly breaking up under sustained load and heat as when I got home and let it idle had no issues and when I got off the freeway and started driving city speeds had no issues, so going to purchase hitachis.

first time really driving it for so long aswell as I’ve only had it for 1-2 weeks.

    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
