bubba Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Hyperdrive remapped my ecu. R32 is 10psi stock, and my untuned ecu handled 14psi through the stock turbo and 12psi through the RB25 turbo (still didn't hit R&R but it pinged when on 14psi). My guess for the misfiring is the coil harness, I had mucho problems and was swapping coil packs in and out. Turned out it was the plugs that go onto the coilpacks - the insides were falling apart. $120 for a new harness and it's mint Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253799-any-reason-why-whenever-i-give-it-full-boot/page/2/#findComment-4385577 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 lol cheers which one? You can get them from Nissan but when I asked they had none in stock, was going to take 3 weeks to get here. Ended up getting it from RHDJapan and with shipping worked out pretty much the same as buying it from Nissan but I got it in 1 week instead of 3 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253799-any-reason-why-whenever-i-give-it-full-boot/page/2/#findComment-4385652 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I got the R32 GTR coil sub harness --> here But likely due to our dollar sucking so much ass, they seem to be $275 delivered now I'd ring Nissan and see how much they want..

Slowpoke Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) Just wondering.. are u using a pod filter? Cause previously on my car I had the similar problem.. all i had to do was take off the filter(apexi pod) and use a lightpowered airhose and blow out all the dust and stuffs.. ended up solving the problem but eventually changed the filter after a month Just my2c.. hope it helps! *Edit* sorry didnt see u had mentioned having a pod Edited January 29, 2009 by Slowpoke Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253799-any-reason-why-whenever-i-give-it-full-boot/page/2/#findComment-4396842 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro-drifter14 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Try cleaning you airflow meter sensor with some brake cleaner could be dirty and pull ur intercooler pipe off the turbo if there is oil in there your turbo seals could be causeing the problem, even try adjusting your timeing Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253799-any-reason-why-whenever-i-give-it-full-boot/page/2/#findComment-4396889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 No, don't try adjusting your timing yourself unless you know what you're doing.

Ehgriez Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 My understanding is the standard R32 ECU adjusts timing on its own until it detects knock then adjusts it back abit, rinse and repeat. Btw don't clean out your pod filters with an airhose it can damage the material, which is why K&N etc have cleaning kits for them.

bubba Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The ecu has timing maps, that's where it gets its' timing info from. The maps are relative to the base timing though, so if you adjust the CAS it adjust timing across the board.

bubba Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 No probs. I still think it's a spark issue (breaking down) as opposed afm or oil in cooler like that other guy reckons. When you have 20yo wiring/plugs, you would want to look at replacing them just for the hell of it (especially mission critical wiring).

Ehgriez Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 yeah it seems to me that its the same problem i have, which is coilpacks. Its 90% chance to be the coilpacks and well they are worth replacing at any rate. Our cars are old, its worth going through and replacing things. Hence why I've got alot of lines and fittings etc that I'm in the process of measuring up to replace. 20y/o rubber and wiring needs to be replaced or checked at some point.

bubba Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Might not necessarily be the coilpacks themselves, while it is common there can also be issues with the wiring associated with the coilpacks. I spent a few months troubleshooting a misfire and it turned out my 19yo coilpacks were fine but the plugs on the harness that connects to the coilpacks were falling apart.. everytime I took a plug off the insides would disintegrate more My stock coilpacks were so fine in fact, that I ended up selling the splitfires I got when I was troubleshooting.
