did it start sounding like a wrx? if so its a coilpack..i went through it 3 times with my girl b4 putting in splitfires

sounding like a wrx could also be a dead sparkplug giving you 5 cylinders. It sounds cool but yer it isnt :)

check your plugs as well ron

I had a brand new impreza do that to me before- turned it around to dealership(where i worked) grabbed another car. Service guys took it for a thrash and somehow that solved the problem...... don't blame me if you blow something - it just happened to work in this instance - they didn't have much of clue what it was either.

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no? 
    • What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.
    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
