I might pop down late this arvo in a hope it's on the rollers

Yeah.

I don't think it is my coils, I took it for a drive and no issues at all under any load on the factory ones yet when I free rev it around 4k it starts breaking down same as it did with the yellow jackets last night.

I am starting to think it may be over fueling when no boost is being fed in while free revving.

Put the boot into it on the highway and she goes like crazy with no issues exactly the same as it did on the yellow jackets before servicing.

Morning Mangs, got the car up and running on factory coil packs, I took it for a drive but I have not free revved it like I did with the other coil packs.

I will take it for a good drive and see how she goes. May be time to order new coil packs

:) check below

Yeah.

If the only thing moved/disconnected was coil packs to change plugs then it is typically coils. if not, Check leads next, if not then igniter might have a fault.

Just checking with this question, did you change the timing belt/move sensor to do so?

Yeah.

If it's breaking down UNDER LOAD then it will be coils or there abouts... If it's only doing it when free rev the you could have another problem like you said...

Morning all

Morning mate

Sounds like a good plan

Igniter is in the coils, does not look like loom or coils TBH they operate under load and at speed, not plugs either.

Background on the car:

400rwhp r34 gtt

never had an issue with missfire ever

109000K's

only missing at revs while free revving

no issues under load or at max boost (23psi)

I've currently in the process of increasing my curling weight from 15kg to 17.5kg. For the last week I've been doing a set consisting of 8 reps on 17.5, 10 reps on 15 then finish with 10 reps on 12.5kg. That's my super set, I take a 1min rest between these sets and do a total of 4 sets.

Can't lift even an apple afterwards

Yep need a straw and a bench to drink water lol

    • Nah, turn the boost up, break the gearbox, and enjoy leaving it parked for a few years while you save for a better box...
    • I see those two Stageas have the "punched 40mm hole" deregistered Japanese number plates 👍 Nice kouki group shot with the different colours too. 
    • Ended up just being a loose exhaust bolt luckily.
    • Yeah I made that post way too early, sorry I must have assumed it was bad because it's a 20+ year old thrashed shitbox lol. It was just a loose exhaust bolt. 
    • Like others have said, drop the power to give your drivetrain a % of reliability until you can up the drivetrain reliability  It isn't rocket science, build power to the weakest link with a % of safety Whilst upping the the reliability of the drive train is costly, there's no point in having the engine make big power if it keeps eating the drivetrain....ask me how I know, I had the tow truck on speed dial for a few years, and I spent huge amounts of money fixing issues and breakages that really would have been cheaper in the long run if I did it right the first time Me, I like a nice sized fudge factor, that keeps me off the tow truck
