just my experience....

bought jjr coils 12mths ago for $399 and after exactly 12 months they failed and caused misfire.....

was lucky to get the warranty.....and upgraded to spitfires.....going good....

Inerested to find this out too, my car does it every now and then, kinda like if i catch it by surprise and shift too soon or somethin.

but anyways I'll be getting a set of yellow jackets next week ive decided, cant wait to see wat they can do for me

I get this also?

Does anyone know what it is?

hm it seems JJR and YellowJackets don't sell any coil packs for R34 GTT's where as SuperSpark do ... I used to think they are all the same chinese coilpacks rebranded but doubt it anymore. If Supersparks were made in the same place as the others, the other sellers would have R34 GTT coilpacks for sale by now.

But anyway ..only a $50 difference between Superspark and Splitfire so might as well go Splitfire if you have an R34 GTT/Stagea (NEO motor)

i burnt out 2 jjr coilpacks within a week and i m currently having spark problems now and they have only been funcitoning for abour 2000 kms

had my yellow jackets for over 5000kms, 2 track days and a motorkhana. pulled them out the other day for inspection and no signs of wear at all, still going very strong :thumbsup:

the JJR ones for series 2 R33's (i think they fit gtr's aswell) were a shocking unit, when i was looking for coils last month i called around and the importers of the JJR's said they were discontinued from sale and they recommended Splitfires, they said some of the JJR ones would last a year, some would last 20 minutes, as far as they told me there weren't any probs with the series 1 r33 style or the r32 jjr coils. But as for series 2 or equavalent even they said not to bother with their own product, atleast they were honest about it to me.

In the end I got splitfires, massive amont of difference from a car who couldnt rev abouve 5000rpm just before i changed the coils... now its like driving a new car

and before anyone on here that knows me starts...yes i know, I AM INDECISIVE :(

lol, are you sure??

just buy yellow jackets or jjr or whatever. If they don't work in your useage they are backed by real australian companies who I'm sure will refund.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
