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.

    • I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.
    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
