r32 gtr idle misfire when hot

Hey Gents

As the car is warmed up not only coolant temp but also oil temp, say around 80-90  degrees the car starts to have a misfire.  At first its just a hiccup at idle but then progressively gets worst as I keep driving and the engine warms up more.  From idle to 1500 rpm the response is terribly.  It's extremely hard to take off from a light, and the whole drive line shudders as I attempt to get the car moving but as soon as 1600 rpm rolls around it goes back to absolute normal with no problems all the way WOT and mind you this only happens when the oil temps are at operating temps avg 85 degrees.  Does this seem like an igniter issue?  or coil pack issue.  Whilst this happened, I had the car on the driveway with the engine running and I sprayed freeze spray directly onto  the igniter with no change.  From 1600rpm and up theres no issue, regardless of coolant and oil temp.  My intent is to go r34 gtr smart coils and get the wiring specialites adapter harness and be done with it,  just hope this helps.  Thanks guys

update= the car now is unable to rev past 2000rpm, just struggles to rise to 2000rpm, sounds like anti-lag(double hecked its not activated).  

can a failing ignition system change symptoms so erratically?

update: Started again this morning no faults revved to 5-6000 no issue, ran for about 10 mins, I shut it down.  Went inside to have a bite and then come back out to start it and the problem re-appears.  Seems something gets heat soaked and it struggles to get to 1750 rpm from idle, then as it approaqches 1750rpm, it will clean right up and rev no problem.  During the stumbling, the afr gets really lean basically offscale.  If it was a vacuum leak would the engine rpm be higher?  I see no decrease of vacuum on my aem boost gauge, it sits at a steady 20in/hg.

hey guys

 

update, so in went new coils and no joy, same symptom when hot.  I opened up the cas and found a whole bunch of rust dust inside, bearing seems shot.  blast of air, back on car and it seems good now.  no more bucking or loss of power.  no my other question is how do i rebuild a hitachi cas(r32/r33 style.  not the black one on the r34)?  i pulled off the cover which mounts to the cas bracket but the guts of it dont seem to want to conme off even after removing the screws.  any ideas guys?

      V37 Alarm settings and what the buttons do.

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?

      R32 Gtr Long Term Love, Now Project

      I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again

      Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!

      curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.

      Rear suspension upgrades

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
