Severe detonation. Fix it before it dies.

make sure is the same grade as the other spark plugs and if it is, just change the spark plugs, maybe is a malfunction

That's really wierd. It might be helpful to run some complete fuel system cleaner through the motor... But... I'm thinking that maybe something is goofy in the ignition system, perhaps there is some wiring problem in/around the distributor, or maybe the #2 plugwire is grounding on something it shouldn't be.. I don't know, it might be worth it to buy a cheap set of wires and install those. Take apart the distributor and play around with that (test the ignition coil and ignitor), also it might be worth it to replace the cap and rotor.. (do GSR's have those?)
