SO this is where i am up to now.

MUST READ THIS FIRST

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...151261&st=0

I have checked a few things and going to do alot more checking arround. BUT i got new splitfire coils, from SLIDE, and put them in and the car still misfires. I have the stock ECU with an SAFC II tuned by kutz, and all seams ok, but i still have to run .6mm gap so that it doesn't missfire, now that sux.

Can somone help me, where can i get my splitfires checked out to see if they are ok, and what else should i do?

Hay toffy, i did the folowing last night.

CAS out and tested, correct opperation and correct voltages.

Pulled out the coil loom, correct voltages, and no bad earths, all trigers correct. Coils gettign 12.4V and triger 10.2V.

All injectors correct, work as per manual, triger correctly.

Now back to 0.6mm gap and see how that goes.

I am so fed up, this sux. Sorry all sprakplugs are new too.

How did you check the injectors cobber???

I know that when my car started to miss cause of a fuel misshap when i pulled them out and got them check that 2 were knackered when they looked ok!!!

Have you check each coil indiviually to see if it just a dodgy one???

Honestly it doesn't sound like it was the stock coils giving you grief to begin with!!!

Well i haven't pulled the injectors out, just did the test in the book, voltages, resistance, and pulsed each individially, the thing is each plug looks exactly thesame, no leaning out or nothing. There are no leaks of any sought. The thing is too, it would be missfirying at the TOP aswell but it does not.

Well i am oly doing what seamed logical, i mean the coils were definatly shot, the old spark looked like something geriatric.

The car performance is definatly better, easier starts, better idle, and fuel consumption is up aswell.

I don't have the money to do much more right now, but i might have to look into the injectors.

BUT talking to KUTSI it definatly spark related as it happens at the peak cylinder pressure. So who knows. i think it's electrical, in regards to spark.

It certainly sounds electrical cobber.

You changed your ECU didn't you, do you still have the other one to try and see if that makes a difference at all???

My 33 had been playing up for a while backfireing and the engine cutting out. Thought it was to CAS but changed that and it was still doing the same thing. I finally found out the the plug that joined Haltech to the factory loom was a little loose and the connection would cut out and kill the engine.

Just something else to check.

After all that. I'd replae the old wiring loom (ignighter module to coil packs), with new fresh wires, of a larger size(there can be a performance gain as well). I'd replace your ingiter module, permanently. Then index your plugs, for height and point the gap (in the plug) at the intake valves (just mark a line on the ceramic with a texta....

Well i will check the connection plugs, but all seam preatty good, will do.

In regards to ignitor, i have a S2, and do not have it, it's inbuilt to the coils.

Does anyone have a S2 loom i can borrow overnight to have a look, i did check mine and it seamed ok, no lose conections or anyting, all good earths.

CAN YOU tell me what the plug indexing is, i think i understand, you mean point the electrode tip towards the intake valve, correct? How do you know if it is going to be the correct way in the head? ALSO what do you mean index for height?, ensure that all the plugs are the same spark gap, or hight of electrode?

SO DOES anyone have a loom i can borrow?

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.

      Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary?

      I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
