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.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
