well after buying more coil pack, it was time to move on to something else so this is what i did. i got a six pack coil off a ford EDIS setup and rewired my coil pack harness and wala no more coil packs. this is only been on for a week still running it to see if there is and future problems, but right now it runs like new.

here is a link to my site Warning tons of pics NO MORE COIL PACKS :laugh::):D:)

hay budy i was looking at the same setup for my R33, how does it wokr, ok. I have a S2, so i needed to buy a whole heap of crap, and all up close to $350, so i am now loking at selling it all and going to splitfires.

Is this setup worth it?

yes and it only cost me $30 bucks if you can get me a pick of you igniter box i can help you make one for your car

the problem i have is i have to convert my engine S2 looom to accept a S1 ignitor and all the other wires, i don't want to cut the loom as i can always go back to standard, and each plug, i need 3, is $30, ne leads, new coils, I am talking all new prices.

Thank God someone has finally come up with this great idea!

I had BIG dramas trying to pin point the stuffed coil pack a few months ago.

Every time the coil started to play up i would pull over turn car off and attempt to pull all the stuff off like cooler piping etc then it would run fine Grrrrrrr. Took my 3 months of drivingit around running great till it warmed up. Such a pain in the ass!

Might have to give this a go :wub:

So now instead of just coil packs to cause you problems you now have 12 high voltage connections, 6 of which are totally exposed to under bonnet contamination. Plus the spark plugs are no longer sealed with means corrosion betweeen the steel spark plug body and the alloy cylinder head.

I give it a few months before you have even more problems. Probably faster if it rains.

D cheers :wub:

just for the coil you can from auto part store for like $90 get it for a SC Thunderbird find me a good pinout of your pack harness and ill help you figure it out you shouldnt have to convert back to S1

well most people here run with out the cover to begain with and i will take the 12 High voltage Connections over one bad coil pack anyday

I fitted splitfires to my R33 yesterday, i can run higher boost now without the flat spots at 4500 rpm now it revs all the way to 7000 without a cough n fart. I have also been using NGK bcpr6 copper plugs at 0.8 gap. I found that all the stock coilpacks were shorting through the plastic jacket, you could see the burn marks obviously. Its just a pitty splitfires are so stuffen exspensive.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
