Favour - Borrow Some R32 Coilpacks That Are Known To Work


Recommended Posts

I'm in a bit of a bind, I have new coilpacks and a miss fire at 4000rpm that screams coilpacks. Does anybody SE have a spare set of known to be working r32 coils I could chuck in to test?

*sigh*

I got my stockies but they were misfiring after a long drive :(

I'm sure some of them would still be good although not sure which one...

Let me know

Could it possibly be the coilpack loom? I've known a few times this to be the cause too

They go all hard a crispy after heating up so much after time, and some of the clips break etc

Told Dave to check it few times, he said it's basically at same age as his coilpacks which is a year old or so.

Think he's trying bcpre7s plugs next.

Your problem may well lie somewhere here. 7s are possibly too cold, try some 6s.

He's having issues with 6s at the moment gapped with 0.8mm

He had 1.1 gap that was misfiring, changed to 0.8, same story.

He've tried another coilpacks, igniter to no avail. Dave has put up a thread on forced induction with detailed problem.

Yeah i'm not trying to be difficult and be obscure, there is another thread (although i'm open to more ideas tbh this is killing me).

It's a misfire at 4000rpm under load when hot. Boost is 14psi. Car has been running fine, misfire appeared towards end of 5000km service interval so I assumed it was just old plugs which were 1.1 gapped. After replacing with 0.8mm gap it hasn't gone away.

It definitely isn't coilpacks, igniter. I am confident it isn't the loom it's new and not old and shitty like many I have owned that I had troubles with.

Gap, can try going back to 1.1 except everyone is certain that 0.8 should reduce misfire problems...

So that leaves me with fuel pressure (I have an 044 intank which could have packed up and given up, they arent' meant to be mounted intank). My workshop has recommended i check the pressure at idle.

Charge air measurement (haven't had any issues with these AFM yet but it could be one of them being a prick). I can check this with consult.

if it isn't those two things, i'm scared, and out of ideas ;). Thanks for your all your suggestions.

i only had misfire when car was hot and revving above 4000rpm. Just like how you described. Removed coilpacks, inspected and looked visually fine. (no cracks etc). Mechanics were telling me its not coilpacks either.

Ended up replacing with brand new splitfires and problem was gone.

Unless you have tested with a brand new set of coilpacks, i wouldnt rule them out just yet...

I tested with a set of splitfires from one of my other skylines that is currently driving around just fine. Not sure you can get a better test of coilpacks? Not only that but these coilpacks are literally new genuine nissan units... really hard to believe it is the coilpacks.

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
