hi guys

i have recently found that there is a misfire in my r33 gts-t at about 6500rpm under load in first gear runing at 6psi

when i run it at 10psi the problem gets worse and does it at about 4000, then 5000 then 6000 rpm.

it feels very similar to when you hit the rev limiter only you feel it the once.

the only mods are k&n pod filter with cai, turbo smart boost controler (swichable) and i have only just put a full 3'' exhaust on this week.

anyone know what this problem could be or any ideas?

ok Robo ive done the search and what u say about the safc sounds good. but if the fuel dumping is my problem could this be fixed by simply turning the boost down?

how much would it cost me for a safc and a good tune?

i do want to put in an apexi power fc in my car soon, so would i be wasting my time and money buying the safc? also my car is an auto so i dont know if i can use an apexi power fc?????????

i have the exact same prob and so do 2 of my other mates. i am getting mine fixed atm and one of my other mates has just had his done. it has to do with the coil packs being stuffed/cracked. the cover that is over the top of the coil packs in the 33's isnt exactly the best when it comes to ventilation of heat. i am getting bosch coil packs put in. and i run with the cover off in the mean time. the bosch packs don't fit under the factory cover, so they get mounted externally of the cover and are alot cheaper. :)

thanks for the info. i turned my boost down to 6 psi and the problem isnt as bad, but it is still there. it missfires at 6500 rpm, just before gear change. if it still does it with the boost down to 6psi this leads me to think it may be something else because its only just started to do it also.(within the last week)

or do you think i should just get a safc.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
