some background info to the problem:

i currently have sII coils (amp. inside coil) installed on my RB25, but nr.6 has blown...

since sII coils seen to be generally bad (dont start a discussion plz), i now want to replace with coils from the RB26 which has the amp. externally...

i have an ign.amp. from a sI RB25 lying around in my garage...

the two questions resulting would be:

1) will the RB26 coils be compatible with my currently installed wiring/plugs from the sII RB25 setup?

2) will the RB25 ign. amp. be able to work with the RB26 coils?

:devil:

Have you considered Splitfires?

Bing a hotly discussed topic of late, for $600 and 30mins labour (yourself) its almost hard to beat bang for the buck.

Reason being you could well encounter the same problem with the RB26 coil and then you are back to square one, and none the better off financially.

There are things like removing the centre cover etc to aid the coils in some cooling (regardless of coil used)

ps. SII coils are fine. I ran 330rwkw through mine for 6 months solid. 270rwkw before that.

cheers.

      I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.

      If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly

      Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts.

      Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.
