Missing really bad

He just came around and i had a look, Its the Sparkplugs for sure. Buy some cheap coppers NGK BCPR6ES until you get a set from caz and she'll be fine

 

haha lol same time!

 

god damn we are awesome..

 

Replacing plugs now.

Is there anything i should know?

Some sneaky 300ZX trap?

Or anything i should do while balance pipes are off?

 

Nah it's pretty clear cut. The balance pipe has little rubber o-rings which i think have to be replaced each time the pipe is off, but you can reuse them. Just dont' lose them or you'll have vac leaks.

Should i replace them? or will i be ok till i buy everything elce?

 

Should be alright to just reuse them unless they are fubared. But just put them back in nicely. I did that on both our zeds and all good.

Thanks for that Kirill.

 

How'd replacing the plugs go? Fix the problem?

 

had to go get right stuff, doin it now,, pulling the balance pipe off is shit to do on this old brittle car ay,, tell ya what..

 

I'd be looking at getting a new harness while there's still some supply left if i was you too. Yours is shagged.

 

If the hoses are too brittle just unbolt the balance pipe and fold it back against the firewall with the hoses still connected. Should give you enough room to remove your coilpacks to to get to your sparkplugs.

 

OOKKK......

Everything is done, all back together, all pipes back on, all nuts tightened, checked everything 100 times....

When i start the car, it runs and all but shakes side to side like a V8 revving and it just sounds like shit..
Sounds kinda like all the cylinders are working, but like,, half each..

WTF...

 

You don't have to replace them everything time. I've had mine off more than a dozen times and never had to replace them, they've never leaked. That's why they're o-rings and not gaskets.

From what I've heard Rhy, you need to replace every connecter and clean everything else. How is it running now that you've done the plugs?

 

Checked all connectors and they are all facing and on the right way (the red wire side points different on both sides right?)

Still not really running too nicely :S

 

Either your coilpack connectors or injector connectors are fubar or maybe just need a clean and retension. Either that or you didn't plug it back in properly

 

Dude like a said the other day when you came round, your harness is one of the worse i've ever seen. There's hardly anything left of your coilpack connectors, Not to mention the connectors being held on by lecky tape and cable ties.

 

i kow, we removed one then freaked out and put it back on.

 

The connector fell to pieces in my fingers when i removed it to test the coil packs. I highly suggest you save up for a new harness man. That harness would be causing you 90% of your trouble.

 

is the harness the clips?

My plan is to get
100k service hit
S2PTU
New clips things
Do a plenum pull and bypass
Flush and pipe cooling system
Test / fix boost leaks.
Run 18 deg on turbos.
Bump boost
and maybe remove hicas..
