ok guys so i know there is quite a few threads about this but there are also a lot of different answers, so I'm looking for something more accurate.

so i have a 1996 r33 gtst series 2 and a week ago it was fine. one day i got in it and drive it and every time i hit the throttle it has a horrible miss. SOMETIMES if i take it out the road for a drive it may be fine then later ill get back in it and its the same again.

i pulled the coil packs off and the fourth plug had water in it so i blew that out n put it back together with excitement thinking id have fixed it but it didn't. i didn't actually pull the plug out, just dried out the water around it.

please help me, this is doing my head in! :/

Cheers, Ethan!

not all places stock Bcpr6es or Bcpr7es. usually supercheap and repco wont but call them up and ask and otherwise they should be able to refer you to a place that will.

Beyond that, how do you have water getting into your coil valley area? this is not a good thing and worth sorting before you put in the new plugs...

Clean the coil valley out, clean the coil packs and replace the spark plugs. There's a youtube post for fix misfire on r33 gtr where you basically add some dielectric grease (headlight bulb grease supercrap has it for a dollar a pack) to the bottom of the coil pack where the spark plug pushes up into the boot. Worked great for me on several cars.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
