Hi guys,

My r32 Gtr is on dyno and has a missfire on gate pressure of 9psi. Engine is a forged std stroke 26 with jun 264/270 9.5 mm lift cams (I think as these were purchased before my surgery) it has adaptronic ecu, split fire plugs running map sensor . New coil pack harness and bosch 2200 cc injectors with resistor removed. My tuner (jez) is awsome and has tried plugs, coils, harness , cas, adjusting cam timing as well as tune. He has adaptronic guy coming tomorrow to hopefully fix it but any ideas are welcome. He also did comp test which came back perfect. The engine also has new -5 turbos with ported manifolds and the head is mildly ported if that helps and smoke test showed no leaks at 2psi. The car was and is very difficult to tune and was a pig to get running at first, right now it has fresh shell 98 but has a flex fuel sensor waiting e85 tune if we can sought this miss out. Any help is appreciated

Scott

Qualify - I don't know much.

But I would place a bet on your adaptronic ECU.

and therefore the course of action being taken by Jez and yourself.

Not much help but I think your on the right path.

Edit: Don't stress over it tonight :thumbsup:

I didn't but it was built by an engine builder in qld and was running 387kw without dramas when I purchased the engine it had travelled about 2000ks inc dyno work only change is cams and big end bearings just because I had sump off

Andy and jez spent 4 hours with it last night, swapped to another adaptronic , swapped injectors and problem still there so it's thought that its either due to wasted spark system or a mechanical fault yet undetermined. Jez is installing a nistune to see if it makes a difference other than that only thing we can come up with is put cams back to stock ones and if that doesn't work I guess engine out and full strip rebuild and blue print if all cc size of ports and seat pressures , ring gaps and clearances etc, fingers crossed but I'd love some ideas or if someone has experienced similar thing? I've search for at least 6 hours and I've found cams with Hyd lifters can cause missfire but these are solid type drop in juns? So no idea really

oh that was you that came past Jez's yesterday (he told me when u left) that was me working on my car while it was on the dyno...

he did mention (and I herd when he started it) that your top end is Very noisy, not sure if this may result in the problems you are having ?

Nice car mate very neat Install and nice power too! It seems I was ripped off with cams from a seller on here whom I can't remember due to surgery well there is a lesson don't buy important parts after brain surgery lol. Jez changed cams and it silky smooth and quiet. It seems I must have measured clearances wrong in thou instead of mm or something cause clearance was at least .75 when should be .30. Base circle much shorter as was duration and lift about the same. So stock cams back in and see how it goes tonight! Fingers crossed as we have both had enough of it that's for sure!

thanks mate she is my baby !

exactly lol always important to check clearances with every cam install !!! and if the base circle was smaller then it would definetly need new shims etc

well fingers crossed all goes well now keep us updated !

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
