ok this problem has plagued me for past couple months and iv tried every thing to fix it.

car is ok and drivable up until around 3000rmp then it often misses and back fires and jerks. i have no acceleration.

some times im lucky and get a smooth rev to about 5 then it, with out fail sounds like im on the limiter papapapapapap lol also back fires often when changin gears

so its just runnin rough as shit

i have so far

-replaced afm with un opened afms

-re soldered both afms

-fuel filter

-coil packs ( 33gtr )

-new bosch copper spark plugs

-cleaned afms

-checked for exhaust leaks

-reset ecu

car is stock with 150000 kms, cat back concept exhaust

iv read a thread with a similar problem. but my coil packs dont have cracks.. iv also been told could be possible its my afms again.... or fuel pressure regulator

any sugestions at all or ideas please pm me or reply :) thanks guys

Sounds like a boost leak or fuel delivery issue

Check ur accordion hoses ( rubber intakes ) they maybe sucking shut and chokeing it out . They should not be able to suck shut

Also cooler piping and and vacuum lines for splits or poor connections

And check fuel pressure at the rail And timing of the engine

And post results when done pls

ok i resert ecu again.

i checked fuel pump and its working and winding and pumpin fine.

checked all cooler pipin. some wernt tight as some ppl would like but they wernt leakin or loose.

all vacum lines look fine... i got a ke and i re done WHOLE vacum line network lol night mare

not sure how to check pressure and timing...will do some reasearch and get back asap

i know is somthing so simple... would it have any thing to do with o2 sensors prehaps

thanks guys

k talked to few peeps and afms must be prob....

cant fix it this week got a defect on my daily..... so got to work hard to get it back to scratch. such a joke

thanks for help guys will up date asap

  • 3 weeks later...

OK fixed my daily... finaly

got done for to stif, wheels to wide, jdm head lights, dash and front lip. but thats another story lol

been driving gtr alot and its been gettin better i checked all piping and vac houses again but nothin seems sus.

it happens when ambient temp is over 25 of below 18 around that... so it mush be afm. or the plugs and wires that make the connection to the afm...

thanks again for all the help guys, ill change the cables and update soon

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
