since I fitted the 3" dump pipe, when I go full throttle to the redline I get a pop/miss between about 5000rpm and 6000rpm, then it smoothes out and revs freely to the redline.

If I use half to 3/4 throttle it revs smoothly to redline without any problems.

Any idea what might be causing this and what I need to do to resolve?

That would be boost cut (or excessive air flow cut as it is properly known...)

Your AFM is maxing out at those revs...

Few solutions... Lean the SAFC out at those revs... Fuel cut defender... Z32 AFM... Less boost... 0.8mm gap on the plugs may help but I doubt it in this case...

hmmm....OK....will have a look at the plugs first, but the previous owner reckons they are iridiums and gapped to 0.7

If that doesn't help I'll clean the AFM coz it looks pretty dirty (what about removing the mesh?....you think that would help?)

THEN I will try lowering the boost a tad, and if all else fails have the SAFC retuned on a dyno by someone who knows what they are doing.

Thanks for the info Adrian

well thats what my problem was, couple of solutions for different problems there :D

Yeah, thanks....I think I'll change the plugs to some plain old NGK coppers anyway and see if that helps.

Has anyone tried the electrical tape on the coil packs trick I read in a thread somewhere which is supposed to resolve some coil issues?

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
