sup f**kers, car is serviced but is missing at 4-5k rev's. Engine is cold though. I will take it for a drive and put some good fuel in it tomorrow if it is still crap I will put the old plugs back in

Coils

Possibly, could be loom.

Yellow jackets with around 20,000 on them

Car was running perfect before plug swap so I can always put the old ones back in and see if it is the issue.

can also be the simple case of not torquing the plugs down correctly when reinstalling them

Coils.. but make sure you have ever thing plugged in firmly. Before buying new coils tape them up as much as possible and see if that fixes the issues, I did this and it lasted 2 years before I decided to buy new splitfires

u r tougher than that and u know it mate.

If people do put you down tell them to F off bro!

I just don't like the typical gym douche that love in there... So, I lift at home lol

I know what u mean. But sometimes it's a good laugh to look at the Johnny Bravos strut their stuff lol

I am going to go over it again tomorrow, all plugs are gaped @ .8 5 are bcpr7es and 1 is a bcpr7es-11 (gaped to .8) can't find a 6th bcpr7es anywhere up here.

I will inspect the coils again tomorrow as well as the loom.

I will swap the gaped down one out first and see if that fixes it.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
