Hey guys, I've had this issue for a while now where once I change gears from revving it out, the car will .....miss fire for 1 or 2 seconds before it starts pulling again, this is at WOT, with less throttle I don't have the issue. I have just changed the coil packs out, changed plugs .8 gap. I have also recently adjusted the TPS as it must have been

knocked or something, I adjusted to .48 on reds, car seems to behave according to where my foot is on the throttle, where when the TPS was out it was erratic, I have also changed the TPS. It can also happen when say....cruising in second at 2k rpm, then flooring it WOT, it will miss for a second...then catch on and off it goes. Once

it has miss fired in that gear, it will pull to redline, but once I change gear it will happen again, any ideas? I have checked for vacuum leaks, rectified some as now the car does not create positive boost in neutral where it was before replacing suspect hoses.

I have stock airbox with k&n panel filter, 3.5" from turbo, stock boost (12 psi) stock BOV and front mount. Plugs have been changed to copper@ about .7 or.8 from iridium @.7 or .8

Let me know what you think it could possibly be.

Please note....it isn't one cylinder misfiring, its all of them, for around a second or so.

Thanks guys.

Hey mate, umm yeah thats the thing, the standard 1.1 will misfire as soon as full boost comes on, thats the only reason I have them gapped so low, with them at this gap there is no misfire on full boost.

Then maybe change your driving style a bit. Instead of simply flooring it, feed the power (watch the in-car shots of V8 super taxi drivers when they show the feet movements). When you floor it, the ECU dumps a heap of fuel in, temporarily flooding the engine.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
