R33 miss firing problem

Hello guys

My r33gtst has been running rough the last week or so

Have a adaptronic ecu,1400cc xspurt injectors/custom rail aeroflow,walbro 460,turbosmart fuel pressure regulator and all e85 lines 

The problem im having is it just misses makes a similar sound from exhaust toof toof toof missing and when cold is all over the place 

Once warmed up it starts to clear up abit better And smoothen out more when driving it 

I have just also noticed when im in first gear clutch in and rev it say to 1500rpm it sounds realy rough but when i engage the clutch to say stress point hold it there it all smoothens out perfect until clutch in again and runs rough misses all through from 800rpm - 4000rpm idle

 

I have changed plugs,checked all coil packs,all injectors ,changed all fuel hoses (e85) 

Checked replaced all vacuum hoses and checked all cooler pipe hoses 

Im leaning towards ecu,maybe blocked injector or vct 

 

Any ideas

Quick update 

I think it might be injector 5 

When cold i disconect the coil pack 5 and runs rough then plug it back in and is fine 

When it warms up i try the same thing again and only a slight cut out not like when its cold

Might have to swap the injector to 1 to see if it happens there as ive swapped coil packs and does the same thing on number 5

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
