could be a coil pack issue.. i have the same thing happening

try dropping your spark plug gap to like 0.6mm and see if it helps

mmm good point, i will have to try that thanks...

it is set at 0.8 at the moment from 1.1

it is a pain in the butt hey...

Yep.

It's coil packs.

I wouldn't go much further than 0.8mm gap though.

Don't buy the Splitfires at $1000 though.

You should be able to get them for about $600 odd from Greenline, Nengun or Kudos Motorsport (group buy specialists who I got mine through).

Souonds like you have done the right stuff with your mods.

Where's you dyno chart? We want numbers!

thanks bass junky for the info,

did you get your coil packs local with local people or did you order them from an over seas mob and then sent to you. i looked at the 3 you said and i think kudos boys are local to order from gold coast i think..

any help on the matter .. im trying to get them in AU at the best price if possible. :D

thanks heaps

Gapping down the spark plugs is a cheap fix, it just makes the spark work across the plug because the path of least resistance again becomes the spark plug, rather than the block where the coilpack usually arcs out when they're not working properly. By gapping down the spark plug you're reducing the area of burn and this can be seen as an inefficent use of burning fuel. In the long run, you're much better off changing coil-packs and running the gap as close to 1.0 as you can.

Those of us who have been around a while have seen this exact problem many times. I could have told you the answer to your query just from the title of your thread.

If you gap them down to 0.6 the best you will have is a temporary solution.

Get the Splitfires and be done with it. Stock GTT coils are shit. $1000 is a rip off. Should be able to find them for around $600ish.

Oh and ditch that crappy fuel pump. You are playing with fire there. I'd hate to see you lose an engine through trying to save $100 on a the fuel pump. Someone with lower power aspirations will buy it off you as I would still recommend it up to about 230rwkw.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
