i've had this miss coming in and out for a few weeks and can't find the cause.

the miss like i said comes and goes, when it comes its jus like its not making much power. still pull but at about 1/3 the usual.

i've changed the plugs and checked the coils were sparking on each cylinder.

anyone got any idea's on what to check next?

Is it only when on boost or completely random? Miss on boost has been covered many times and can be found by searching, most likely causes are old plugs, old coils, too rich.

Random is a pain in the arse, and you are in for a world of pain trying to track it down.

With the stock ecu mine would occasionally have a single miss at part throttle, usually when slowing down then going to accelerate again. Unsure what it was, only every blue moon would it do it.

PFC and Z32 AFM went in and I haven't seen it since.

mate intermittent misses always end up being coil packs you just got to get lucky and catch them!

i had all 6 coils go 1 at a time

Mine wasn't, swapped all 6 no change, i also swapped ignitor, ecu, rewired ecu to ignitor,swapped ignition loom, regrounded everything, swapped cas and afm, removed emanage, which also required swapping back to stock injectors.

In the end i got the shits and got an rb25. Problem solved :D

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
