Hi to all,

i need some advice on a problem which by other post sounds quite common in 34's

let me first infom you what i have had done recently to my 34gtt $ 6500.00 later i have my turbo hiflowed with trust internals from GCG, 550 cc injectors, apexi power fc computer,full hks super drager exaust,front mount, dump pipe, runnin 16 psi,walbro 255 lt pump, only just put in thinking this may fix my problem.

ok here is my problem when at hi rpm say 3500 upwards and anything above 10 psi i get pap pap pap sound like a boost cut sound some times it runs good and some times it runs bad, it was tuned in brisbane and all went fine untill i return home I'm about 900 mtrs above sea level a bit colder temp as per say.

if anybody can help me with a solution or advice my mechainc says it now could be coil packs and recomends split fire items at a Cool $ 1000.00

any help would be great thanks heaps ...... :

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.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
