My GTR is missing at about 4,500-5,000rpms pretty badly so bad infact that I lift off straight away when it happens . Pulled plugs out they were NGK BCPR6EY 11

(11 meaning 1.1m gap) . I thaught this was the problem so replaced with a new set of the same plug but gapped at 0.8m but still has the same missing problem.

I've also tried disconnecting a coil pack at a time while the car is running to see if the idle didn't change when one of them was disconnected but as each one was unplugged the idle dropped they seemed to be all ok.

The car is fitted with z32 air flow meters , do these have problems like the standered units would it be worth my while to take them out and clean them with contact cleaner ?.

Car is going to the mechanic next week but just interested to know what else could be causing my problem?. The car has a few bolt on mods including 2530's , PFC , z32 airflow meters like stated .

question:hows your fuel supply???

it could be the coil packs , they break down under load and more so when they are hot .

does it always do it ? only when its hot ?

other than that check to see if your injectors are maxing out , it could be them or fuel pump .

I have the same problem. Only happens when hot.

Does your car hard start when warm? Mine does, and the misfiring is only under load, getting worse when hot.

Because it hard starts when hot, only misfires under load (I have new plugs @ .8mm), I am going to try new coils - next weekend. Will let you know how I go.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
