Ok where do I start. I have a 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 GTT ot recently had an issue with a phantom misfire I tried to locate and bought a consult fixed pending codes and cleared ecu for code 55 all clear.

 

Next on inspection we checked the timing using the consult which originally displayed 15 degrees fluctuates 14-16 then we went to put every thing back together and move on to plugs and coils but I thought I'd run consult again to which nothing was moved but timing on consult said below 10 but timing light says normal. I cant adjust anything to bring up timing on consult I have read the workshop manual which we have here but still nothing and I'm doing as requested.

 

Can anyone here help me or point me into a direction where someone can... thank you guys

I've pulled timing covers off to discover a loose timing belt and a broken tensioner I've put it on the hoist and pulled it down I'm hoping replace belt tensioner pump and seals and reset ecu start timing procedure again.
Then back to hunt for misfire.

Im having problems getting the car timing I can only get close to 15degrees and the car is missing and popping replaced timing belt put all at tdc tensionerd belt correctly and can only get 15 degrees when maxing out the cas also the consult which I purchased from Stahl car says it's at 0 degrees then fluctuates from 5 to 10 is there anyone that can help or have had this issue resolved I'm at my wits end I'm on the south coast nsw and no decent shops to figure out this problem. Spark plugs have also been changed and are gapped a 0.8mm I dont know anymore.

Ok man thanks... I know it's a problem that I have induced... so do I set the cas back to centre disconnect TPS and try from there.... I know the base idle and everything has been messed with as heaps of people on the south coast has had a stab with no success.

Coil packs replaced and new plugs again bcpr7es 0.8mm problem still exists should I be looking at injectors and cas as I have both problems still rough misfiring idle and timing wont time properly. Or do I give up and take to Nissan?

Don't know what is meant by the South coast of NSW  but Nissan would not be one of the places I would let loose on my car. If you ask I am sure you will find at least a couple of shops in Sydney that have expertise in the RB

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
