Do you mean you pulled out coil from cyl 1 and put a old plug in it, and earthed the plug somewhere on the car and cranked it, and the coil is firing the spark plug okay?

If thats the case, then maybe its your injectors? check all your injectors are getting power to each plug. If its got spark and its not firing, then it probably doesnt have fuel. Maybe your injectors are completely buggered, or maybe they are dirty.

Did it just "happen" one day, or have you done something to your car and now its not working?

means its sparking but not firering the spark plugs are fine
All it tells you is that #1 coil is working.

Have you checked the spark plugs in 1,3,5 cylinders? Have you checked that the injectors are working - maybe they need a good clean?

what happened was i spun out round a corner when i started it again it was running on 3 cyclinders and wouldbt boost was blowing heaps of white smoke it all so burnt my boost line from my waste gate to the turbo where u put ur boost controller so it was ventin to the air thought it was a blowen head gaskit but since then have conpressen tested the motor seems to be fine hasnt used any coolant at all and the oil is fine looks brand new still

yeah i pulled out the coil pack from cyclinder 1 put a old plug in it to see if it was sparking its sparking fine so its not a sparking issue im yet to get a led test light to check the injector pulse. all so have swapped my inighter pack over and swaped my ecu with another car that was working fine did nothing different so cant be that

Doesnt mean they arent fouled.

You can check everything else on the car but with out pulling the plugs there isnt much point.

But If you dont think its your plugs, Id start checking the Diff and the handbrake cable, cause that will fix the problem.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?

      I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
