Default is this a misfire or something else...

alright i've noticed under normal acceleration my car seems to feel like it hesitates from around 3-4000ish rpm unless i give it a bit more gas and it seems fine. My friend suggested a misfire maybe, but shouldnt i be getting a code for that? because the check engine light does not come on.

the motor is an obd-2 b16a2 and the ecu is an obd-1 jdm p30.

Could be a number of things. It will be hard to tell until it throws a code or breaks down on you. Check the plugs, cap, and rotor for their condition first.
