fidler_bc Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 10012021 intake gasket.pclx5232021 AFR adjustment 17.pclx So i got this running and put about 1200 miles on the new motor before the issue started. Even with my inexperienced tuning she ran pretty great. Boosted to 14psi like a dream. As soon as, local temps started to climb the missing began, but now it happens all the time, even first thing in the morning when it's straight chilly outside. Most of the stuff i've used so far is new... Injectors, coils, plugs, wiring harness, grounds... Things I've checked: Compression = 155- 160 on all cyl Leak down = less then 10% lost on all cyl Smoke/boost leak = some cold side clamps that I fixed, still missing Spark plug gaps = .8mm (NGK BKR7E) Fuel pressure at the rail = 43 without vaccum line to FPR Things I plan to check: wiring in a fuel pressure sensor to ecu so I can log pressure fuel pressure at pump (tomei 276 lph drop in pump) I've attached my most resent map and one of the last ones before the issue started. I'm just hoping i'm missing something in this map that might be obvious to someone else. Otherwise, i'm not sure what else mechanically I need to check. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Adamw Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Its not going to be very happy with the ignition timing you have in those maps. I would suggest importing the ignition table from our GTR base map, that is from a near stock car and fairly conservative, I think from memory I pulled about 5 deg out of the boost areas before making it a base map so it is a good safe starting point. Fuel map should really use TP if you have the stock ITB's - likely not your problem but you will have trouble trying to get a consistent fuel tune using MAP/MGP with ITB's. Update firmware, yours is very old. Lastly, if still not happy after the changes above, RB ignition coils are not renown for their reliability. They would be fairly high on my list of suspects.

fidler_bc Posted October 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 1032021 Ignition and firmware.pclx Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction. Here's an update. After installing new firmware, I was promted to recheck base timing. I realised I wasn't correctly following trigger calibration procedure. My coils are R35 coils with the above mentioned milage on them. I might try finding another set and swapping them out to see if this helps. I'm also using a single throttle body. I did have a much easier time getting a consistent fuel tune earlier this year when I could drive and log so much more info. But since this issue began I've been chasing around my Lambda target like crazy. I set base timing and imported the ignition table from the base map. Although the condition did imporve a bit, I'm still not out of the woods. First gear seems to spin freely and barely build boost. Second gear builds boost and sputters while doing it. I then installed colder spark plugs and double checked the gaps. Seems to contribute slighty towards improving, but not enough to leave me with a drivable vehicle. I'm trying to log a smaller sample so I can share it with you. Are there any specific parameters you suggest I record that might help me figure this out?

Adamw Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 When you do a PC log, everything is recorded by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidler_bc Posted October 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 I can't do a pc log since it freezes/disconnects, even with all the updates. Has since I started working with the ecu and software. I just use the ecu log function and tune based on the logged info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
