Before I begin, I'll just say that I've searched the forums all over the net for days now, and have addressed all the possible issues that might cause this, and still no luck. I've tried swapping coils, gapping the plugs tighter, hardwired the coilpacks, replacing the ignitor, added HKS Twin Power Ignition DLI, looked for boost leaks, and the list goes on and on....NO LUCK! If I run more than 21psi, I get a misfire, less and it's ok. What else could this possibly be? The mods on the car are as follows...GT35R w/Tial 38mm WG, built shortblock, Nismo AFPR, Walbro 255 FP (Hardwired), Nismo 550's, AEM EMS dynotuned. The car has a PERFECT tune in it across the board. It's running 11.6 A/F at WOT, and the partial throttle is perfect. It's also running speed density, so no more MAF in the car. It has 3.5 bar AEM sensor, with IAT sensor. The car is making good power, right at 450whp on 22psi with pump gas (93 octane in the US). I'm not sure what else to do. Are the stock coils up to the task of 21+psi? Are splitfires any better for sustaining higher boost? What else could possibly cause a misfire like this? I've even put C16 race fuel in the car, as a shot in the dark, to see if it would smooth it out, but still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know this may sound dumb but mine had a similar problem. Check ur cranck angle sensor. If it in the middle or is it set to devance. Mine was on devance and was doing the whole missfire thing. Move it to advance and it was fine

Clockwise=Devance

Anticlockwise=Advance

Just though id let u know. C how u go

on another note similar to carl h's you dont have your breathers returned into your instake like std do you? If there is any oil there it will be returning back into your intake possibly causing a miss.

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
