FYI - THENIG - Splitfires have been around $520/530 delivered for the better part of this year :P

I purchased mine ages ago and i paid around $530 from memory.

was going to say the same thing! bought mine over a year ago and pay $500 for them, i think they even go as low as 40,000yen on yahoo auction brand new

Yeah thanks guys for correcting me on that one, i apologise for posting before researching more on the forums. For some reason $600 was stuck in my head from what people were asking for them on Ebay a while back. I think i need to invest some time figuring out Yahoo auctions and the babelfish translator.

Im still curious as to what those things are for at the end of the springs on the OEM coilpacks of a 32. I can't remember if the splitfires had them also?

Cheers

Well, i noticed a little later 2 were crooked not one, but the packs run alright

if you have a look at that thread i managed to straighten them a little by packing them up with washers and they run better than the old ones, but most people who replied to the thread said they would ask for a refund or replacement of those two packs

Basically, i would go the splitfires now if i had the choice but as i cbf getting a refund or replacement these are fine

Well i have some issues with Splitfires, the first set died 6 montch after purchase 4 coils startred to die, and it looks like that migh be the case again, either way my Central 20 ECU and splitfires don't like a gap above .8 mm at 15 psi

has anyone done a setup with any other brands of coils? like MSD, Crane etc, etc. there is a huge range of very powerful coils at much better prices than $500 for 6. alternatively is there any one using CDI's or DIS units?? what sort of results r u seeing?

MSD and crane ect. do they make them for imports ect.? i thought they are more for v8's ect.

also by the sounds of things people have had problems with both JJR and splitfire coil packs, has anyone had similar or any problems with the OEM packs???

i guess we might have to wait for a magazine to do a test or something to really know how they perform against each other, as said above some people are a bit iffy when it comes to chinese products but also as said above some of the chinese performance parts are proven to be a good option being a direct replacement of performance upgrade...

does anyone know what the OEM coil packs are priced at???

i was told they retail at 1200 a set of 6

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
