Just don't run one. Convert to pencil coilpacks with the igniter built in. Many Toyota, Audi or later Nissan (VQ, VR) options exist.
Thanks, this is exactly the innovation I was looking for. Is there a "bolt on" pack for this swap or do I need to get into creative wiring?

Just pulled out the engine coil valley cover and had a brief test of the ignition cables. I found that the 3 rear (closer to the windshield) ignition cables didn't make a difference when pulled out as opposed to the outside (closer to the headlights) 3 ignition cables which made the car shakes more and nearly stop.
My guess is either the ignition cables or distributor are faulty? How do i test the distributor? Further how do I know it's not the coil pack or spark plug?

Hi all,
Are there any newer ignitor/distributors that we can use on an rb20det? I know we can get the original but the newer ones looks similar was wondering if anyone had given it a shot?

Haven't tested fuel pressure yet as I'm waiting for a fuel pressure kit to arrive. However I have further information which may help:
1. New Walbro fuel pump has a really loud whining, which wasn't present on the old pump (before it failed)
2. Exhuast smells rich

Have you measured fuel pressure? Have you gone back into the tank to make sure that it is all still together and shit hasn't fallen apart (bad hose clamp, etc)? Have you got any better details than "acting rough"? Is this just at idle? Will it drive fine at light load but starts to struggle with some load? Ets, etc.
Where do I test fuel pressure from? The fuel filter?

As mentioned you need to verify correct fuel pressure before doing anything else.
Ok thanks

It rumbles like a boxer engine, the car shakes and on acceleration it initially struggles but then builds rpm consistently (all the while "rumbling")

My fuel pump died so i swapped for exact same model (Walbro 255). A few minutes after running new fuel pump my engine (RB20) suddenly started acting rough. After cycling on and off a few times the roughness is still there. I couldn't find anything related on the forum. If you have any ideas please throw them my way. Thank you ☺️

Hi I need your help.
I just changed the fuel pump in my R32 rb20det, and took it for a drive. It was responding very well and then all of a sudden a few minutes into the drive it started to rumble. It pretty much sounds like a boxer engine now and the car shakes slightly.
I need some ideas or areas of focus because I'm currently freaking out

Check thread date, it's 2009. They are still available new or easily available used.

Can you post a photo or diagram of the location?

Agree the stock rod will outlast the gas struts, but I've read elsewhere they are not very secure and can pop out if slightly nudged
-
Did you end up finding one? Or using an alternative?

Thank you for your reply. True $120 is going to hurt, but I just wanted to know if anyone has tried something else

Hi everyone. I just bought a skyline R32 using my heart instead of my head. I'm looking to make a few purposeful changes to keep it practical. In particular I'm looking to install a gas strut to hold up the bonnet. They go for about $120 online but I was wondering if anyone has found a cheaper alternative that fits well? Or perhaps have you gone another path?
Newer alternatives to the rb20det ignitor/distributor

Thanks I've had a look at a few, there not cheap either. The only thing that's confusing is some sites say they need programmable ecu and others don't for the same product.
Yeah I'm in Oz, Sydney in fact
