SR20DET Ignition Timing Jumping
Posted: Wed May 12, 2021 2:10 pm
I have been troubleshooting this issue for a while now and am at the point to reach out for some advice.
The Issue:
When setting my ignition timing to 15 degrees, it "randomly" jumps up or down, and tends to get worse as the car warms up. AFR bounces around worse as it gets warmer (13-17)
The Vehicle:
1991 Nissan 180sx SR20DET
Tomei 270 Procams
550cc Subaru Yellow injectors (Flow matched, tested, new rings)
Walbro 255 Fuel pump (8-10 years old)
(unknown) FPR set to 43psi
Z32 maf
Turbonetics T3 60 turbocharger
Phase 2 Motorsports Ignition Coils
Wiring Specialities Ignition coil harness
RS Enthalpy tune on Nistune board
What I've already tried:
-Mechanical Timing is spot on
-Replaced old fuel
-Changed spark plugs to BKR7E from BKR6E
-Set tps
-Set fuel pressure
-Replaced all vacuum lines
-Boost leak test
-Compression test (+120 across the board)
-Leakdown test (less then 20% loss)
I have attached a log I took, if there is anything else I should have checked off to record let me know as I am inexperienced but learning with the software. Owned this car for 11 years, so this wasn't a problem inherited. Cams, injectors, turbo, MAF, ignition coils and ecu were most recently installed. Anything helps, thanks!
