i dont know if ud call whats happeneing to my car missfiring :S

in first gear u floor it, all seems fine (if a little laggish as boost never copmes on full :S) then once i hit about 4000-4500 i hear what seems to me as a loss of air (like a blow off valve kinda thing), then the car acts as if it hit the rev limited and falls back. i change to the next gear (3rd usually) this time the air noise is mopre obvious and the car does the same thing at 3000!!!!!.

if i drive the care bellow 3500 this porblem does occur BUT WHO DRIVES A SKYLINE BELLOW 3500!!!!!!

im stumped guys, were do u think the air leak could be (if that :S)??

Has any1 ever experienced this before????

appreciate the help cheers

yeah the cars getting old its 94 series 1 turbo

i changed the afm witha mate, and put in new sparkies.. still nothing

with the coils, when u rev the car u hear a funny spool(excess air) and the car cuts out and miss fires,, i searched for an air leaked but didnt find 1 :s maybe im not looking hard enough :S

i took a brief look at the coils and theyre seemed to be some white powdery substance does that mean theyre fualty? should i go to a mechanic??

chers

i had the same problem, its definately your coils. sand down the inside of your coils LIGHTLY with a dremil drill to a nice shine, make sure you get the whole inside of it and stretch the spring a LITTLE...

then tape up the usual parts.

thanx for the advice guys, so far ive

1 changed the sparkies to 8mm gapped

2 changed the afm with a mate (the old one was working fine)

3 cleaned the coil packs with wd40 (they were pirtty clean with no signes of cracks and scortch marks

4 tightened all hoses from the intercooler

5 kicked the car :P

still nothing. i dont know if ud call whats happeneing to my car missfiring :S

im thinking its some kind of air leak now, or a dead/faulty cpu :S

Sounds like crack in rubber intercooler connectors at inner guard.Remove air box and actually take the connectors off the car to see just how little the crack could be to cause all your beautiful boost to escape.30 seconds with a boost gauge would show you if car is reaching full boost.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
