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

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
