Hey mate, contact DVS JEZ if you get stuck and need someone to look at it for you!

Also, there is a cruise on the 16th if you are sorted out and keen! Its more a meet and greet type thing so bring your beast out and show it off!

Yeah Jez did my tune few months back, good bloke, car came out great. Until now. Can't really do much over the top cash being tight these days

:/ it'll get there hopefully it's running mint by the cruise so I can tag along

Yeah see if you can sort it out! There is the Newcastle Skylines FB page that you might be able to borrow parts from? Or ask on here.... I dont have access to anything from 32's so i cant really help...

You got more detail on the missfire? Its not likely to be the coils if you have just fit them! On that note WHY did you originally fit them and is this the same issue?

Stock coils wouldn't hold up past 4.5k during the tune so Jez dropped in a set of his splitfires to do it. Bought a set put them in, ran sweet for a couple weeks.

It's popping on boost at 4k+ sometimes misses just as it comes on

Sometimes on startup it runs on 5cyl struggles to rev and spool Put the boot down as it coughs to limiter and it clears up. Only does it about 10mibs after running temp. Plugs are less than 40km old bcpr7es-same as what Jez used. I'm assuming its fuel or ignition

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
