generally coilpacks fail altogether or fail intermittantly (ie randomly the car runs on 5cyl because an ignition coil drops out) rather than misfire, are you sure its not something else closely related?

i have some, how many you after? definitely have redtop rb20det ones handy, not 100% sure where the silvertop ones are. electrically the same but redtop 20's have a different input plug.

hey mate, yeah I am pretty sure it is the coil packs...

It has happened a few times now and each time I tried a different meathod of repair.

1. Placing nitto tape over them to cover the cracks (not that I could see any) - Fixed for about 2 weeks

2. Painted with resin - fixed for about 2 months

3. Painted with areldite - fixed for the last 4 or so months

I had to problem one other time after GMB borrowed my ignighter to troubleshoot and must not have connected it back up corrctly but once I reconnected the plugs it went perfectly!

I have tried this again and it is not the problem... it happens all of a sudden and then doesn't go away until I fix. Mind you my car has been around the block a few times so it could do with some with a few less km's! Also, now that I have repaired them (band aid fixed) so many times they are now a few mm bigger so unless I sand them back, I can't really do it again... (might do it anyway once I get new ones just for spares!)

Thanks for the offer of the red top ones, I will holla if I need them!

Hey B, I would really appreciate that if you are sure! (I will do the removing and refitting of course!!)

I am 95% sure that is what it is but if it is something else then it would be worth while the hours or 2 of testing!

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
