So i just bought myself a Series 2 gtst and for some reason even when my stock boost gauge is only hitting the first line above the 0 line it pops its guts out. This only happens before about 4-5000rpm. After that it seems fine... :/

Is there any specific thing that could be making this happen

Cheers

+1 to boost leaks.

+1 to missfiring, all of them cause that issue. Change your plugs ( might as well gap the. At .8 while your replacing ) and just dble check airlines, cooler piping and check to make sure the previous owner actually has the right lines from actuator and turbo.

i have a turbosmart tee piece, r33 gtr sidemount, and a 3 inch system. Nothing major. I replumbed the controller from the actuator to the intake pipe myself with new vacuum line just to make sure. If i i turn the boost down it doesnt happen as bad. Ill try replacing the piping from the turbo right through.

Have just bought some bcpr6es plugs. gapped to .8 im putting them in this afternoon. should be helpful i hope :D

I have a similar issue to this, don't want to start a new thread about it though.

I bought my Skyline about a month and a half ago, drove like a dream. It had yellow jackets, FMIC, pod, cat back exhaust (punched cat). I put a JJR 3" bellmouth dump on it and a turbosmart boost tee. Drove nice on 11psi, then a few weeks ago i started it up and it was missing at 4500+ rpm.

So far I have replaced plugs, gapped to .8mm, running actuator pressure boost and cleaned the AFM. Still misfires, seems to happen more in 2nd and 3rd gear. It also has a leaking turbo-dump gasket, thinking the dump flange isn't straight as I put a genuine Nissan one on it

Anyone have any ideas what it could be? Running boost off the actuator pressure it still hits about 9psi, and I have checked the coil packs already, although one had a spring that had less tension than others.

Its ur coilpacks

If I increase my boost, will it lean my mixture?

Possibly. Depends how much boost and if ur tune has been done on higher boost.

The yellow jackets fail All the time. If u have any stock coil packs that work u can diagnose which one is the issue.

yeah dan, i might drop into the dyno and get it done right. get it tuned to 12psi and leave it. im even planning on selling the blitz kit that i have on the car and just fitting the stock pipe back in and using the stock bov. i like the flutter sound better anyway :D

Just thought id update,

got my splitfire coilpacks today, fitted em, misfire gone. I now am of the opinion that Yellow Jackets are cheap for a reason (they are shit). A guy at Just Jap told me the other week that they got their JJR Coil Packs from the same factory and they ended up binning them rather than selling em cause they had so many fail.

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
