I had the exact same problem. Under load above 4000rpm (dependant on load situation) both on road and on dyno (ramped, etc) when accelerated hard my car would have a miss and sort of hesitation. If i eased on the accelerator, the problem did not occur. We changed fuel pump, had all injectors flow tested, etc, as they are brand new, and car still hesitated (missed). I WAS running NGK platinum plugs (gapped to 0.8mm) and the car still had same symptoms (exactly like you are saying). I have super tech valves with titanium retainers, etc, 1.5mm overized valves stainless on intake and nitrite coated on exhaust. My springs are 95pounds at the seat and still car hesitating under load. Problem was found that my spark plugs were arching out under load. (Simple rule of thumb for old school mechanics - plugs up top, points down low) checked my coil packs, they were fine. Changed the plugs to v-grove and solved my issues instantly. Have also since put SplitFire coil packs and HKS plugs. I was running 12psi when this was occurring so had nothing to do with coil binding or a dud valve spring.

That's just my two cents. Hope this info helps.

I'll mention this when I speak to them today. Cheers for the input ;).

Paul I know you mentioned the timing looked good but might pay to call ross about the trigger kit a local company here in bris was having miss fire issues on there car and they traced it back to something in the trigger kit arrangement. Sorry this is second hand information so i dont all the details but thought was worth a mention..

We had what seems to be that issue you're talking about in 2011 when I put this kit on. The issue for us was the GT101 sensor was not PERFECTLY in line with the trigger wheel. New bracket has since been made. There's no logs of issues with timing or anything. When we had that issue we were seeing RPM logs of 86,000 RPM, 44,000RPM and would be hitting the RPM cut. Sound similar?

Again this is second hand info but they were talking another revision something to do with the cam sensor though.

I heard pauls testicles had shrunk so much he has started investigating plastic surgery to have a vadge grafted onto himself? Who woulda thought an electrician would have small balls?

On a brighter note, hurry up and launch it brah

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
