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?

i think so but its not at all bad. ill be cruising along everything perfect then BANG the car will just kinda like hit limiter or something scares the absolute shit outta me. then thats all, it goes without a trace. does it once every 2nd drive say. just got new 30a fuses the old ones have alot of green scum on the copper through the clear plastic.

      The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week

      Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.

      What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
