Fellow Skyline owners,

The car in question is a r32 GTS-T.Car is misfiring above 4000rpm.Changed cracked coils still doing it .

So paid $80 for dyno run....

OUTCOME!!Running dangerously lean when on boost 11psi 4000rpm which is causing the feel of misfiring.

connected pressure gauge up to to fuel line still on dyno ,sure enough fuel pressure drops at 4000rpm when the car runs lean!!

Okay drive with no boost till the walbro 500hp fuel pump comes in !

Mission accomplished fuel pump put in (2 days waiting)........But wait still missing !!

What do i check next .......Dyno guy closed till Monday

I'm thinking fuel lines under the car ??Testing to see if pump recieving 12V Note:fuel filter and fuel hoses in engine bay replaced last week!

Anything else i should inspect?????

Thanx in advance

Also had another thought, i forgot to post earlier.

Is the pump getting full battery voltage under load.

Could be a faulty FPCM. (Fuel pump control module)

The ECU gets the FPCM to drop voltage to the pump under idle for quiter operation, maybe it isn't switching off idle to the higher voltage.

Check the voltage at the pump.

Also does the aftermarket pump require bigger guage cable for the higher current that most larger than stock pumps can draw?

Give some more details of your setup and testing results, im sure someone can help.

.

Maybe .......where is the FPCM located?

I will organise a volt meter to check it out ...though it will fluctuate any way wouldn't it.

Done some research some ppl wire their pump so its on max all the time ,means wear out quicker but there is always plenty of fuel,the unused fuel just goes back to the tank.

How would i know if my fuel reg is dead?

What about your injectors?  Tried changing your fuel filter?

What are your AFRs running at above 4000rpm.. ie how lean?

Fuel Filter changed aweek ago! the pressure gauge was connected just b4 the fuel reg.so don't think anything to do with injectors.

Not sure but the line on the dyno graph for afr shot up when the car was missing ,leaning out!my tuner said it's leaning out pretty bad!!!

gonna hassle him tomorrow to work out the prob after all he wasted my $250 on a fuel pump :wassup:

Hey dudes problem solved,

replaced fuel pump reset ecu car is running sweet just misfiring now and running rich now ,Put on dyno again

Put my tuners coil loom and coils in and the car ran fine didn't miss a heart beat.

So i am chasing the coil loom $45 from jap wrecker and gonna splurge on the splitfire coils for just under $600(import places want $75to $100 each.Iscored 6 for $50 off a mate but for standard ones which will keep playin up and can't run more than 0.8m gap on the plugs

Now running rich so gonna check out o2 sensor and save for apexi fc!

Thanks fellas

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
