who can point me in the right direction, did a couple of searches to no avail. After info on LS1 coilpack setup on RB's, anyone know of a site or SAU link?

LS1 coilpack on a nissan?

Are you crazy dames? Best coilpacks arent the justjap or splitfires - its the good old nissan OEM coils

If you're smoking crack, I want some of that ;D

OEM anything coilpacks will always out perform a just jap/super spark/splitfire coil. the commodore coilpack is rather common, why? because its cheap and it works, really well.

damo, head down to somewhere like morpowa and have a chat with them, if they cant help you out ill see what i can dig up for you. ;)

did someone say crack?

"i would never do crack I would never do crack I would never do a drug named after a part of my own ASS!

"Somebody says you want some crack I say "I was born with one pal! If I need another one I'll let you know but for now I'm sticking with the solo crack-ola thank you!""

It's late and I have had too much soda

true that! the other branded ones are just cheaper replacements that work well but they're still not an upgrade

consider this, heat kills coilpacks. any coil setup as a 'coil on plug' arrangement are sitting right in the middle of the engine, yes? how much heat do you think theyre exposed to? ever touch your cam cover after a spirited drive?

the beauty of the GM/ford coilpack conversion is that they can be remote mounted, away from the engine, and shielded from heat. the lines from the coil pack to the spark plug itself can also be heavily shielded from heat.

the next and most obvious advantage is cost, call up your local holden spare parts department and ask for the price for 3 vn coilpacks (3 is all you need for a 6 cylinder engine) and then call up your local repco/supershit/sprint auto store about a set of leads, youll be pleasantly surprised.

(note: ls1 coil pack conversions require 1 coilpack per cylinder as normal)

if anyone has ever looked at a 2j coil pack cover does anyone realise how it's vented? now why didn't nissan think of that? that's why i don't have a cover :(

toyota packs still fail. they just cost 4x as much to replace. :(

how dare you take that tone with the name of nissan :no:

take it back ;)

nah, i think ill leave it as is. :(

:EDIT: this is how both toyota AND nissan should have set it up;

I disagree sir.

A coilpack gets killed due to oxidization and increased resistance from contacts - not to mention structural damage if you are rough removing or fitting the coilpack itself

the coilpacks are exposed to efficient combusion via the heat conduction of the sparkplug itself as well as the ambient temp of the engine bay and cam covers etc... resistance increases with a temperature increase but thats only a factor of http://www.physicsforums.com/latex_images/75/759468-0.png

Which isnt really significant.

;)

Temp does not kill coilpacks. They are designed to cope with engine bay heat. Its movement/shock as well as surface oxidisation from age that kills coilpacks.

is that the 7m?

uh... no.

1JZ.

ah dohmar, you never cease to disappoint, something useful instead of the 'ah nu, not gm bru' argument that i was expecting from some. thanks. :(

news.com.au has to f**king go. this is my response to the topic http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...5006301,00.html

The article itself is benign however the poll has two loaded questions. loaded meaning any media turd can twist the results to his or her own devices.

This is what I wrote to them. I doubt they will have the balls to publish it, let alone act on it.

Wow AdelaideNow... again you've managed to put out a really unscientific poll. Fair enough if you were going to count a simple yes or no vote, but the addendum to each option totally invalidates the poll for what it pretends to be.

How on earth is crushing a car going to lead to violence? How on earth is crushing a car going to be a deterrent? And how DARE you associate traffic offences with violence! It is totally disingenuous. Its bad enough you feel the need to draw false lines from car enthusiasts and those involved in motorsport to immature young men and women who are blatantly disobeying the law, now you have to stoop to such a level to get your hits and sell your rag?? Your readers are not as stupid as you treat us! its just a shame there is no competitor for us South Australians to turn to for local news. You hold the monopoly for dumbed down journalism, and our society suffers as a result of your laziness.

I hope for the sake of the people of South Australia, that you all find a conscience soon. We deserve better.

Lets see if they grow a pair of balls, or a conscience for that matter.

f**king scumbags.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
