Hi guys, I am not that huge on the forums so I assume many of you wouldn't know anything but I had my PRE-LCI N63 tuned on JR Performance Stage 2.

I had tons of fun with the car; for a short while until the N63 problems started to kick in. I couldn't even gas the car without getting thrown into limp mode, and the seals are done and I didn't feel like driving it.

I put it aside and was driving my R35 for a few months until the transmission went about a month ago, but I am doing a full rebuild on the transmission and doing full bolt ons at the moment!

But for the time being all I had to drive was my N63, and I have already decided to put a brand new motor in it. As all of my funds have been dedicated to my GTR, I decided to try some cheaper TEMPORARY fixes. I swapped the spark plugs, adding Jectron every fill up, some Liquimoly Valve Seal Saver and for the time being the car drives great!

I just wanted to share my story and took some short videos yesterday.

How many miles did you have on the car when the symptoms appeared and did you conduct any preventive care?

I think I do a pretty good job doing maintenance, I usually do an oil change every 5000km but I drive my car fairly heavy. The mileage when tuned was 110,000KM (pretty ridiculous to do it that late but I wasn't expecting this car to last 150,000KM anyways.

I was notified about a valve stem seal leak before my tune at about 95-100,000KM, but I didn't notice any blue smoke until I gutted the OEM Downpipes. It turned out both my Breather Hoses (I believe) were cracked and needed replacing, and up until recently I have noticed misfires on injectors 4 & 7 which would throw me into limp mode.

As of right now, I am using Liquimoly Jectron per fill up which did make a difference, but I would still receive the Limp Mode on full throttle. I decided to just swap out the spark plugs, and it drives very fun and smooth (for the most part) but I scanned and still has the misfires.

What spark plugs are you using? Are they pre-gapped?

Are the R35 transmissions still $20k+?

For a complete replacement, yes. But I am just doing a rebuild with some billet pieces, I wish I could run a full rebuild but it's a bit out of my budget right now
