So my car was missing under boost...I tried second hand yellowjackets and new plugs at 0.8... Still misses...

Then I do a turbo upgrade with pretty much everything new.. Both manifolds, injectors PFC fuel pump etc.... Still misses...

Today I went and bought new splitfires and put em in...miss got worse.... Now it's like really loud backfiring... Different to before.

Has anyone got any ideas to help me solve this problem.

Youve added a shit load of stuff to the equation now....should have sorted it before the upgrade, but still check CAS and make sure the blue plug on the ecu is in evenly, pressing in the ends and not over tightening the 10mm bolt, And I assume u changed the afm to Z32?

When you say backfire, on accel or decel?

Yeah it's missing on accel and sounds almost like a rev limiter with lots of little backfires..

Yeah it's a z32 afm and Toshi tuned it, we did what we could but we stopped when it was missing and I was going to go back and finish the tune once it's fixed.

Try gapping down your plugs to 0.6-0.65. I just did that and sorted my cutting problem at 0.8 Bar. Now good all the way to 1.4 Bar. I think my coils are loosing power so confirms that it is spark related.

Running that gap now with no probs at all, until the shop warms up to re-mount my coils (I run bosch coil set-up).

Dont think its actually the coils..For reference my splitfires had enough juice to run a gtx30 @20psi with wmi and 1.1mm gap

Sounds like an electrical gremlin....As said before check coil pack loom, ignitor if you have one, also make sure all earthing on the engine and batt terminals are clean and tight and again CAS

What plugs you running?

So if you get mad backfiring an high in the rev range it could be leaning out coz of the pump?

Definitely, mine did the same thing today on the dyno, changed coils, gapped plugs, no change. Ended up being one of the pos Walbro 342's not pumping properly. It seems they need to be fully submerged to operate at maximum flow, unless its just faulty... I was hoping the deatschwerks didn't have the same design flaw as this fault was occurring at 1/3 tank.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
