Missing When Boosting. R32

hey guys, i have an r32 rb20det, all standard apart from exhaust and fmic, i have recently gained a miss. it is running standard boost and when boost kicks in it starts to miss and backfire a little.

i thought it was the plugs so i replaced them with some new ngk bcpr6es and most of the miss went away but it was still missing a little and after about 100km's of driving its back to the way it was.

could it be the coils, timing or dirty injectors?

any help would be much appreciated!

thanks,

Tim

Coils or coil harness for $500 thanks.

*tick-tock-tick-tock*

Also not sure if the BCPR's are helping or not.. the R's are the resistor type plugs, I run BCP6ES (non-resistor type).

It'll be your coil packs more then likely. I had a similar issue on my hr31 (rb20). I would check you plug gap first though, it makes a big difference if you have to big a plug gap.

I bought some new plugs that were a 0.8mm gap and I also used high temp silocone around the coilpacks to seal any cracks and the problem went completely.

      I used "different strokes for different folks" quite pointedly as honestly, there is no wrong when it comes to choosing what you like.  I always day dreamed about flappy paddles with fast shifts in a sporty RWD Turbo and to me the sound and feel of it cutting through gears in a steady stream is exciting, engaging, and keeps the car better balanced - I *also* like h-patterns, but I find them more engaging and fun in a nice hoonable peaky NA thing.  Type-R Integra/old school NA rotary, things that are raw and need all the rpm where picking the gear and getting it sky high is part of the engagement of the whole thing despite the fact that they probably need closer ratios and faster shifts even more than a 3l turbo thing haha

      If I wasn't allowed or really had the desire to visit China it would probably fit in my carry on, but I have no desire, Japan would be nice during Cherry Blossom time though I might need to chat to Jackie about that, that should actually be an easy conversation though as she is currently talking about another cruise, cruise ship to Japan, a week in Japan to see the sights, then cruise home I may even be able to find those OEM NC Recaro seats over there that I cannot find here 馃

      What do you mean?  In between the two I shared?  They're the same boost   This will be insane.   A mate has a GTSt with a 9:1 RB30/25 with Tomei 256 cams and a Borg S362SX-E that is already a beast from the basement but has a stock 5 speed and will probably get a ZF8 one day.  After the G35 900 RB26 setup I'd be lying if the topic of "Wtf would a divided G35 be like on this thing?" idea hadn't come up - you'd definitely want a wide boost control range setup with it, as even with the less responsive and potent S361 we're having to ramp boost in from very low levels in the early gears.

      ZF8 is faster, wider ratio spread, better in every way. I do not dispute this. But I have brain damage and I want the feeling of shifting gears. To me the extra work is fun, but I daily an automatic and in the US like 90+% of cars are automatic so a manual transmission is an "exotic" experience. If I want an automatic I've driven an F80 M3 with DCT more than a few times and it's incredibly capable but it's emotionally vacant to me.
