[tyler p]

hey im just wondering if someone can give me some help i own a r33 4 door manual turbo love the car apart from this problem, when i drive the car normal its fine but if i decide to put the foot down flat out as soon as i get to about 4 thousand rpm the car develops a miss firing issue of some sort i have gapped my plugs to .8 and stil have the issue.

the only other problem is it only does it when the air is cooler on a hot day the car seams to be fine any help would be muchly appreiciated

It could be coilpacks, bad earth, ecu(Rich & Retard) and/or a myriad of other things.

Sorry i cant offer any more help than that at the moment.

Its not weird - they do fail in that way. If money's tight, you can use silicon or tape to try and repair them

as said above, most likely the coils. probably the single most common problem skylines suffer from
