Hi y'all

Got some splitfires in my 34, so don't need these anymore.

I was having the all-to-common R34 coil pack issues. I'm presuming it was just one that was on the blink. I couldn't see/find any hairline cracks.

I suppose if you know electronics at all, you might be able to test these somehow?

I know with the splitfires that the S2 R33 and NEO R34 coil packs are the same model. So these might be able to be used on a S2 R33 as well. Anyone confirm?

Location: Melbourne

Price: $150 (i'm pretty sure they are $100 each from Nissan. I checked before buying the Splitfires, so these are 1/4 of the price :))

Yes, I can confirm that these R34 coil packs can be used in series 2 R33's.

Because I have done the reverse! I am running series 2 R33 coils in my R34! They have the internal ignitor and will bolt straight up. They are a little wider on the base, but still fit up ok (doesn't interfere with anything)

Good Luck with the sale and a free bump!

how long's a piece of string :laugh:

ok. Well, car came from japan with 48,000km's on the clock. Condition of body, steering wheel, gear knob, seats, etc... "seemed" to indicate that this was likely. And despite the all too common, R34 coil pack issue, the car hasn't had any other dramas.

The car also has had a respray about 5 months ago. All original panels, one of the straightest R34's that workshop had seen.

Soooo... i'm tending to believe the km's from Japan. I also added another 1,000km's (trip from syd to melb) onto the 48K when i picked the car up from the compliance workshop in Sydney. So the coils did 49,000km's i guess, and very little down here in melb because i couldn't register the car for aaaages (long story). I had swapped over to split fires before i even rego'd the car. So in total, a little less than 50,000km's i guess.

At least one would need some DIY attention.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
