Hey guys, my r32 gts-t has been misfiring every now and again, it's starting to annoy me now because it's been doing it more often.

Some days it won't even do it once but others it'll do it 4 or 5 times in the one day.

I'll be driving along then it'll start misfiring out of no where and it sounds like a wrx hahaha. But if I just down shift and come back on boost it'll sort it's self out. I'm thinking it might be a faulty coil pack but in not 100% sure. Just wondering if anyone could help me out. Thanks!

It has splitfire coil packs as well, thanks man I'll get some new plugs for it tomorrow and put them in and see if that changes anything. But it's weird like as it comes back on boost within three seconds it'll fit it's self and won't do it again for like another 10-20 minutes. Sometimes it won't even do it again till the next time I drive it.

I'll put some new plugs in and if that doesn't sort it out I'll get the injectors cleaned.

Any suggestions on what plugs I should get for it?

Coppers NGK BCPR6ES

or

Platinum PFR6ES

in either case gap them down to 0.8mm

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
