Procharged G35
I'm hoping that the worst of it is over. I may self tune to get it drivable and when I go home on leave take it to Hal and see if he can make it run good.
Well is truly showing me how much she loves me...
As you can see my lower radiator hose is/was rubbing my A/C compressor and ate up my hose. Good thing I was on base and was able to limp it home.

Well I think no matter how much I don't want to do it I have to pull the upper pan next week end. It's leaking way to much, and also one of the throttle body coolant lines I blocked off is leaking onto my driver side header.
And my car makes 1psi at 4k rpms...I really need to get a BOV that doesn't leak!

Well, A friend back home letting me try out his Perrin BOV and it may actually work!
But I found a broken driver side valve cover gasket and my header is covered in oil, but while I'm fixing that im going to go ahead and put my 750cc injectors in so I don't have to mess with that later.

First off let me say Nissan's RTV that gets sent with the OEM Rebuild kit is worthless! Spent all day yesterday dropping the damn upper oil pan to reseal it. What do I find when I pull off the upper oil pan? F'ing Nissan RTV that hasn't cured and looks like it just came out of the tube! F you Nissan!!!
After ever thing is put back together I waited about 2-2 1/2 hours before putting oil in the car to let the Loctite Grey RTV set. Well the good news is that that is no longer leaking from what I can tell but, the rear timing cover appears to be leaking a little bit and i'm willing to bet it's because I used the Nissan RTV. So I'm hoping that I can run a strip of grey art along the out side of the block and prevent it from leaking.
The worst part is right now I wouldn't be able to race it due to the oil leak
Now that my rant is over I need some help, when I open it up at around 5800-6000 it misses really bad, I currently have Stock Heat Range Copper NKG plugs in it. Is it possible that I'm blowing out the spark, or what else could cause this? Blown Head Gasket, but Oil Isn't Milky?
As soon as I get one of my iridium's replaced "diode is messed up" ill put those in.
Side note: F NISSAN RTV!

I'd really be surprised if you already blew your HG. Side note, why are you already "opening it up"? Did you do full break in/tune?!
How long did you give the nissan rtv to dry?
Stock heat range I doubt would be getting blown out. It might be a bad coil pack or something along those lines. Along side the questions oldman put forward, do you have good grounds to the engine/head?
What's your timing and spark dwell time through those rpm?

Well According to my boost guage, that reads -8 when car isn't running it was 6 psi.
Fuel 91 Oct with Ethanol
AFR's 12.4-12.5
Didn't log AIT's :-(
Timing was 13*
So just checked all my plugs, they was all finger tight and gapped to .040 so I droped that down to .032.

Well I think i'm going to throw in the towel and have some one else tune it. It is just making me mad that I cant get it to run right, now begins the saving some money to get it tuned maybe 2-3 months and she will live again.
Bump that timing a bit. I just installed my procharger on the guys car I sold it to. First pull timing was 14 and it was missing and breaking up around 5k Bumped it to 18 it was fine
