Nah, bought better pads...still same problem.

Rotors are glazed and i am not maching brand new $1000 rotors....Feats the whole point of being brand new and slotted. Seems the new pads are wearing the glaze away slowly...

yeh keep at it. bed the brakes in properly..

or a can of de-squeak will work

Hey, guys just thought i would ask you guys what you thought my car has the popping sound at around the 5000 rev mark but keeps acelerating through till 7000 rev, it is really anoying and need to get it fixed.

So far i have found out it is likely to be the coil packs and there are cheap ways to fix them or i can just get them replaced, is this my problem?

I will be getting the sparkplug done at the same time.

get the plugs done by themselves first.. then come back and tell us the results. do a progressive assessment. u wont need new coils unless their fkd

keep it simple man.

* u dont want to spend $500+ on coils, when stockies can cope with 300rwkw, and may no need changing.

"A few of the blokes on there with higher powered 500awkw+ GTR's have had ignition break down issues with the splitfires. They drop the genuine coils back in and the break down disappears."

yep well could be tips of plugs r gone. but my guess is the coilpacks are breaking down.

Rabbit - I had this problem on my R33. To fix the problem, i'd do the following.

1) If your running anything above your stock 7PSI boost, turn it back down and the problem usually goes away - Higher boost causes this problem.

2) If your boost is stock, remove your spark plugs and replace them with some ngk iridium plugs (around $19 each - but well worth it) - dont bother gapping these plugs below the standard 1.1 unless you are running higher boost.

3) If your plugs dont fix the problem, my next step would be to replace your coil packs. This leaves you with 2 options in my opinion.....1) you buy Just Jap coil packs for around $399..... or you buy Splitfires for around $485 from Slide.....

With my experience...I found that Splitfires made my car run very smooth. but as i have heard nothing about JJR coilpacks, i cant really make a call on how well they work when compared to SF.....

Let me know if you need a hand with changing the spark plugs/coil packs as i would be more than happy to help...Sundays are a good day for this :whistling:

Cheers.

i would NEVER run 1.1 on a boosted car.

i ran 1.1 on 10Psi on my old GTR and it wouldnt rev over 5500rpm the misses wer that bad.

regapped by hand the platniums to .7 and took for a drive and hello 9000rpm gate :D and fark it got its bucket load of torque. i remember that day as thats the first time i wet myself in that GTR :whistling: and blew a cooler hose off. on 10psi haha

+1

regap them man to the recommended gap of 0.6 or whatever it is.

u can only leave at the stock gap if u have a crazy ignition system or using a nos system. splitty coil packs or other similar coil packs are simply not up to the task. for that kind of ignition we are talking a dedicated msd coil pack with spark lead. but thats an easy $2k right there.

+2 on the plug gaps. I think from my previous experience you will need no more than .8 gap.

If this doesnt help split fires are good, unless you are chasing 500+ hp they will do fine.

sup guys got a question for ya. put in a new o2 sensor, and have adjusted fuel prs to 40psi, and running super rich :w00t: for once.

ive been runnin 8psi for a few months now, because if i boost over 12 it gets guttless and hits the wall.

now that ive richened it up, can i run 14psi well?

hoping it will work sweet now my afr issues are fixed seen examples with ppl running 14+psi on stock car and reaching 300hp. :cheers:

dont worry about turbo probs/ constantly ran 20psi ages ago.

Dunno if this helps, its a long read but might be the problem.

if it is the stock computer then the wall you hit is the richen and retard stratergy of the computer, once you reash a certain level of air flow the computer retards timing and dumps a tonne of fuel in hence why you go slow! Upping the fuel preassure will only make it worse and hurt your wallet fuel wise

YESSSSS!!!!!!

FK skylines bro.

go a rz supra with 2jzgte vvti.

wack in a t51r.

3 fuel pumps, surge tank

or better yet keep the tt setup. :nyaanyaa:

skylines are a good learner car. but if u want serious fun go a rz supra

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
