i just purchased my first r32 gtr. when i picked it up friday the car, when i started it seem to have a miss, but i couldnt tell. it runs like it have a bigger cam. sounds very lumpy. it only does it at idle. does anyone know if there is problem??? when you increase power, typical gtr exhaust note but when cruisin it sounds like it isnt running on all 6 cylinders. i have checked the spark plugs, coils, injectors. i think there my be some sort of air leak. i sprayed some aerostart near the no2 and no3 injector and the car ran perfect for a second the miss was gone and then came back again. also i looked under the rear of the car and the diff has the typical v spec oil cooler fins on the backing plate. does this mean its a vspec??? how else can i tell? can someone help? the car has done 90klm. also with the gtr are they still speed limited to 190km? thats where mine stopped.

As far as i know all standard R32 GTR's have a finned diff all V-spec and V-spec II have a flat diff cover so the opposite of the R33's. Best way to tell is the model code V-spec II have KBNR32BFS8 AA where a V-spec does not have the 8 on the end and normal GTR's do not have the S or the 8 on the end.

The miss is no2 inlet gasket has blown which requires removal of the plenum/throttle bodies and inlet manifold.

There are three sets of gasket there and best to replace them all.

Have fun, it's a bitch of a job...

V Spec usually means that it has 330mm rotors and brembo calipers.

Finned diff means nothing...

Cheers

Ken

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
