thanks gordon.......as you know inark(ni) may have one which I may be able to get sooner (as I want to get this finally fixed!).....but if that does not go ahead, I will be in contact.....:-) Cheers, Corey.

Thanks again Ni, much appreciated :-)

cool thanks.....I will keep my eye on that if nothing comes to fruition on here....:-)

thanks Ni, hopefully he wont mind seperating a coil pack.....I presume they work, ie: engine is still going an no holes in pistons from dodge coils etc hehe

Can I post a thread about looking for a coil pack in here? Anyway, I have a dead coil pack on my RB20DET and am after a replacement, preferably off a fellow Victorian (thus why I post in here).....does anyone have a WORKING coil off an R32 RB20DET engine? I will require pics as I have been screwed with red top coils before....:-( I am only after 1 (one) too.... Cheers all, Corey.

I am after one coil pack for an R32 RB20DET engine......I will require pics as I have been screwed with red top coils before....:-( Thanks all Corey :-)

I wont be making it after all.....got a dead coil pack = 5 cylinder "fun"..... stupid coil packs and I will be working until 3am tonight anyway....

wow.....if there are going to be some SAU'ers there....maybe I will go.....seeing as I am only 35kms away....hehe (2 days of the week anyway)

I just read another thread.... Another guy had same problem and faulty coil pack for him.....but also check about fuel richness, could also be a contributing factor.....not sure though....hopefully someone with more knowledge will post soon....

any other ideas or experience with this or similar problem very muchly welcomed!

If you are serious about letting me borrow an injector I will take you up on your offer.....but I will do what I said in previous post and buy new coppers to test sparkies first then move onto injectors....:-) Cheers Greg Corey.

The plugs were all replaced when I had the comp. test done.....because I initially took the car to get this problem fixed.....had the timing belt changed too. They replaced the plugs because I had used octane booster which fouled the plugs and they said best if they were replaced (NGK Iridiums). Have not used since tho, and car only done about 1000km since this work done....if that. I will buy some of those cheap NGK coppers and replace them all and see what happens then........fingers crossed! How can I also check if the plugs are getting power? Can I pull one out at a time, leave it in the coil pack and turn the car over and see if it sparks like you can do on old cars? If not, how can I test if the power is getting all the way to the end of the plugs? (If you know what I mean.....) Thanks for all the replies guys! and keep 'em comming! :-) Corey.

I think your car is just running a tad rich....

bump

I haven't actually checked the spark plugs...mainly because I could not find the socket for it when I had the coil packs out......would build-up completely stop the plug from firiing? Could doing that fuel pressure thing had any bad outcomes....like blowing seals or anything?

Problem is I live in South Gippsland and no friends have skylines..... and no readily availble wreckers carry this stuff aorund here.....:-( And I am also temp. living away from home, so even harder to get to somewhere to buy a ignitor if thats the problem....

Yeah I had a compression test done last year, and havn't driven it much since then....test results were "very good" according to the guy.....I think an average of 170 or so per cylinder from memory.....havne't looked at the paper for ages...... It initially started off ages ago as a sort of misfire.....run on all 6 then 5 or so and run crap then all 6 would go again for days or whatever....then a cylinder would stop going and run crap.....just like that but for different periods of time.....sometimes on/off on/off.......then I had it "fixed" like I mentioned but since a couple of months after getting it "fixed" (march 2004(been overseas)) it started doing it again and now its not going on all 6 at all anymore....:-(

Hi All, Its a long long story that cost me a lot of money to get "fixed" in Melbourne, but I'll cut it short to the important stuff. My car has been running on 5 cylinders, first I thought is was the injector plugs because I could move the plugs around while still connected to the injectors when the car was running and it would cause them to run weird (this happend to about 3 or 4 of the plugs)....so replaced the plugs, tested with multimeter and all check out fine..... Start the car up and still not running on all 6.....move the plugs around again and no problems....no running wierd or anything like that.....but still only 5 cylinders....so I take, 1 by 1, the plugs off each injector and find that number 3 when I remove plug does not change engine firing or whatever....so I think, ok must be coil pack.....so buy a set of coils and replace all my carbon connectors with the new sets and clean 'em up and etc and put back together..... Start the car up again.....and still not all 6 cylinders are going.....remove injector plug on cyl. 3 and still makes no difference....remove plug on cyl. 1 and runs even more like a bag of shite. So would it be logical to assume that the injector on cyl. 3 is faulty or clogged up? and needs one of those sonic cleans or whatever they are called? If its not that injector I have no idea....I have replaced all of that I THOUGHT the problem was..... I need to fix this ASAP! Any help much appreciated!!!! Thanks to all, Corey. PS: The engine is an RB20DET in an R32 GTS4

Stupid question: Where is this Winton place? (I live out in the sticks of country Vic.....and not immersed in the car scene too :-( ) I would like to go if I can and its not hours and hours away from me..... Cheers, Corey.

This might be in the wrong section, but it is related to events/cruises.... Just wondering if anything will be happening at Phillip Island in the near future? I missed the last one and selling my car soon (hopefully) so I would like to get a cruise in before I do....and I temp. live in Cowes now too.....hehe Fell free to move thread if it should be in the Vic section insted or whatever, Cheers, Corey.

thats too bad man......pity you have to part with such a good looking example of a GTR

I would also advise against going to Ice...just my personal experience. Everywhere will have good and bad experiences come from it....this is just one. All the best! and happy new year! :-)

are you actually considering selling your new GTR druzilla32?

you are one lucky bastard druzilla32!! :-)

is it a diploma, cert. 4, ? I ask because I was wondering what length of time studying they may accept even though its not a 'uni degree' cheers
