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.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
