ive got coilovers and if i drive with TCS on it kills power all the time randomly... just cause of the stiff suspension :banana:

Interesting, never thought about the coilovers...

I've had the same thing happen to me, definitely no noticable wheelspin and not much acceleration for that matter, but the slip light comes on (along with the engine being throttled back). Hmm.

So you reckon the coilovers? Anyone else get this minor problem?

BOV and nearly stalling seems like a very realistic idea. its the only thing you have changed and if you go close to stalling your engine both will flick on. go out and try it... let the clutch out just enough to nearly kill it and push it back in quick, both lights will come on.

probably the most likely thing i think

As for the coil overs, yes they do effect the tcs... but only usually on tight corners or over bumps. so it doesnt sound like this was happening when the car nearly stalled?

I always switch my tcs off because the coil overs do cause abit of havoc with it. only at low speed though ive noticed

sounds 99.9999999999999999% like the old R34 coil packs issue to me. VERY VERY common for R34's to have 1 or more coil packs to give out.

Splitfires are getting stupidly cheap these days, not sure if they've even cracked the $400's??

Anyways, had the exact same problem, got Splitfire coil-packs, problem went away :blink: Good upgrade to do anyway, and is actually cheaper than buying brand new OEM Nissan coil packs

check the trader sections here for cheap Splitfires.

cheers,

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
