phat_allen Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Hey Guys, I found that when driving my car that after about 30-50 minutes of drive the car starts to miss on idle and starts missing when climbing the revs inbetween 2000 and 4000. I was thinking plugs and or leads but i thort someone might have experianced this before and fixed it? Doesnt make a difference whether its a hot day or cold day and my car doesnt run hot. Any ideas?

Tangles Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 coil packs could be one, could be all of em get a set from wreckers or preferably grab a set of Splitfires ($500 tho) to suit the series 2 R33 engine for S1 stagea, or R34 engine for S2 stagea Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193807-s1-stagea-missfiring-when-warm/#findComment-3476892 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brycey Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 i had this problem for ages but i eventually got splitfires and im amazed, i use to get 300k's to a tank now im getting around 420, and the misfire is totally gone! also the black smoke i had on cold start is gone aswell! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Sp...36-t188698.html Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193807-s1-stagea-missfiring-when-warm/#findComment-3476988 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 just jap sell aftermarket coils to suit, fair bit cheaper than the splitires. no point buying second hand coils IMHO they would either be dead or dying like yours are Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193807-s1-stagea-missfiring-when-warm/#findComment-3477225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_RS4 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) The coil packs that Just Jap are selling are only for series 1 RB25's at the moment unless they have released them for the series 2 RB25's. Which is really stupid imo as I was just about to get some. Better than the $500+ for splitfires if they're as good. What is the difference anyway between them....?

fcruz3r Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 try the DIY method of putting silicone on the coilpacks...if it still misfires...then get new coilpacks from just jap...from memory they're about $400 ..so a tad bit cheaper than the splitfires Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/193807-s1-stagea-missfiring-when-warm/#findComment-3478995 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topkart R33 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I would try a set of plugs 1st...get a set of copper plugs for less than 30bucks and see if it eliminates the problem. Your old plugs may be breaking down when getting hot??
