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.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
