About a year ago I "upgraded" (well what i thought was an upgrade), to a Bosch GT40T Coil.

For the last few weeks i havnt been able to drive my car because the spark over 3000rpm was so weak it would run rich as and die on me.

I jsut put on a old L28 coil i had laying around and now my car runs awsomely!!

I'm so happy!

Funny you should say, I had an old Gt40 crap out on me a while ago and put it down to its age. However the guys I just spoke to at ICE ignitions this morning hated the new bosch coil and leads in my car very much and couldn't stress how nasty they thought they were.

Of course its in their interests to hate other ignition component manufacturers products.

what happened to the nice 2-door one you had, the blue & grey one??? i really liked that!

good luck with the sale,

i suggest making a 'advert' on youtube, so others can see how it goes, give it a bit of a run but dont make it look like you thrash it!

i bet you could make $1500 in selling parts off it EASY.... you got the lights and turbo i want, plus loom!

Could make more money yes.. shipping would be a killer. The turbo kit that is on that was orginaly the one i was running on my coupe. Definitively a nice upgrade over stock l20et turbo's

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
