I wish you guys/gals lived closer, cause I'd come round and help

Ok then ;).. we had a play around a couple of hours ago .. riddle me this:

- coil packs swapped for complete other set

- spark plugs seem to be "about 0.8mm" (left feeler guage at home - oops) and were all fairly recently replaced.. NGK BCP6RES which i think come out these days stock at 0.8

- no obvious air leaks, split, or disconnect vacuum pipes

Which in my mind only could leave?

- Timing slightly out (couldn't check)

- not running cooler or aftermarket management which i know is a bit iffy at 10psi (although apparently it does it at stock boost levels too)

- ignition module (doubt it)

... OR ????

Running about 10psi boost, few random misses at around 4000rpm.. but can "push" thru till they start appearing at 5500rpm or so again. Not massive (heard worse) but enough to shit you when going hard.

So Dr Paul - what is your prognosis?

This is Ska's ka (oo that rhymes)... nah.. no SAFC .. no nothing - that is why I think its maybe a bit iffy even trying to wind the boost up on that setup. No real sign of audible pinging though. Actually almost seems to be the opposite... could it could be just running a bit rich, flooding the cylinders??

0.64mm ? interesting... he could try that.

I always used to run BCP6RES w/ 0.8mm on the rb25det and never had miss issues 10degrees or 35degrees.. but i did have a big front mount and SAFC.

well at least i found out my "spare" coilpacks work.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
