Hey everyone

the problem I have I think is something to do with the ignition. Last night i attended the Vic bush fire cruise in Perth, and i hit rev limiter but didn’t stay on it for long and changed gear, however after that my car is popping really bad and it kind of struggles and looses power at times, this happens between the rev range off 3400rpm-5000rpm and then usualy clears out but then i can’t go past 6000rpm coz it just keeps bouncing off like a rev limiter would, however at these rpm’s the noise it makes is louder than normal and a lot of people said it sounded as if it had antilag( trying to put it in content to describe it better ), as time went by it got worse and worse so i decided to drive it home, while it kept miss firing like that, but just dropped into a higher gear and kept at about 2500rpm and drove it slowly.

Today i took it for a drive and it seemed fine, until the car warmed up and again bang bang bang, in every gear around the same rev ranges, so i took off the air flow meter and cleaned it, also took the coil packs off and cleaned them and inspected them for any crack's or something out of the ordinary. After that i checked my spark plugs and changed them, just to make sure it wasn’t them (gapped at 0.8), i took it for another drive and still the same problem keeps occurring. it’s become a bit worse now as even now on idle it’s miss firing, where before idle and in neutral it didn’t seem to happen.

Does anybody know what else it could be? or what else i could check? Could it be because my ecu i have is stock, and still hasn’t been chipped and retuned for the mods i have?

This issue only started last night, its never happened before and I’ve been running the stock ecu with those mods for about 2 months..

The car is a R32 Gtst with the standard Rb20det

The mods i have on the car at the moment are

- Pod Filter

- VG30 turbo (single turbo version)

- FMIC

- 3 inch exhuast

- Stock ECU

and thats about it for performance wise.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks alot, niran

sounds like coil packs, they must be stuffed tho to do that?? dunno if bouncing it off the limiter could kill them like that?

swap them with a mates and see if that fixes them

hey mate, thats what i was thinking too. maybe i will do that and just borrow some and see if it fixes it.you reckon it could also just be the stock R32 gts-t fuel pump? dying out because off the other mods?

Hey guys

To update this thread my problem did arise again after the fuel pump.. and i did find the problem so incase people do run into it again. my crank angel sensor connector had broken and one wire was not in the clip causing it to stuff up..

cheers, niran

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
