Hi Guys,

Has anyone earthed Pin 60 from the PFC in order to fix the dreaded R32 GTR Misfire issue?

I just want to know, when you earthed it, did you cut the wire entirely and earth it straight from the PFC? Or did you splice in an earth?

I tried splicing in an earth and the car started to idle very roughly and i'm a bit cautious to cut the wire entirely to test a direct earth.

Thanks,

Taran.

I was told by other skyline people that running other than OEM coil packs can cause the hiccup. But I don't think so... And another thing I've been told was that the power fc needs a constant voltage and if it drops below that then it causes the hiccup.

But I can't confirm or deny any of that sh!t.

Alright guys. I grounded pin 60 directly using a very clean ground and it failed. It made the idle really lumpy and rough so now i'm back to how it was before.

Anyone have any other ideas?

The capacitor sounds interesting. How would we implement it?

Update. So i drove the car yesterday and the misfire is gone. Will have to drive it a bit longer to confirm it but so far so good. If it's permanently gone then it means it was the ignition fuse, near where the 4wd fuse is under the bonnet. The new fuse i picked up from SSS Auto looks like a newer type, it sticks out a bit more and the fuse link looks much fresher than the previous one. Perhaps this could have been it? What kind of fuses do you guys have in yours and what model GTR's do you have?

The fuse thing could be the fix. Maybe after X years they get brittle.

I put a USB charger in my ciggy lighter, and when u plugged a USB cable into it the fuse blew. Thinking it was a broken item to start with, but tested it again with a brand new fuse, and its been fine ever since. So it is possible that maybe the fuses are causing a bit of resistance?

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
