munro run up to 450kw at the treads with standard coils they are very good but like anything they need care and attention....

i will be running bosch motorsport items on mine when its rebuilt and also CDI!! Should never have a problem... oh and the bosch units are only $44 each thats the price of a good second nissan one!!!

I visited a well known engine tuning workshop last weekend with some questions re: coil packs (rb25det) and he basically said that for the extra ~$300 (~$900 for Spitfires or ~$600 for new nissans) that the spitfires aren't worth it.

$44 for Bosch sounds alright...

With the Bosch ones you need to mount them remotely, run a HT lead , and re-wire the coil pack loom - not a big job but worth it for the $$ you save -

You could make it look great with Red HT leads or something.

spitfires are around $600 for a set, so better value than nissan.

We had trouble with spark quenching at anything over 22psi=350awkw.Installed splitfires and not only gained power and torque, but could put more boost into it (26psi=390awkw).A lot different on the track too as stacey had a lot of trouble hanging on to her on the first few runs until she got used to the additional power....Paul......DIRTgarage

was going to make my own thread but i guess this is suitable to add to this thread as might also be usefull for others.

i'm looking at getting some spitfire coil packs for my RB20DET, just curious as to:

-> where people get them from for such a good price? (ie $600)

-> if they work well with a stock computer? (i'm guessing there shouldn't be any issues, unlike injectors)

-> would spitfire coil packs for a RB20DET be interchangeable with a RB25DET? (incase i decide to upgrade the motor in the near future)

Can anyone tell me what is needed to run MSD coil kits? (ie using normally a MSD unit and run iginition wire straight to spark plugs).

I have seen the rogoli modify their 300+RKW cars without spending 1000 dollars on a stupid coil pack.

Any Advantages over the standard pack?

Splitfires $600!!? Me too.

"unlike injectors"?? - Is this why when I installed RX7 Injectors they did not seem to all be firing properly on my R32 GTS4? Cant the ECU handle the same impedence larger injectors OK??

Sorry if off topic.

Not sure about other places but we sell them for $750 or $630 if we could get a group buy of 5 people.

As far as i know, there are only 2 types of coil packs for the Rb engines.. the ones which suit all S2 engines (with ignitor module built into each coil) and the ones for all S1 (single ignitor module at back of coil pack cover).

I got told that their are 2 diff type coil packs for S1 engines and 1 type for S2 engines (S1.5 engines use S2 coils). . . That was by Just Jap Auto in Kirrawee Sydney.

I put S2 coils in my S1.5 and they "worked" (I still have a miss so either 1 of the 2 I put in is faulty or I have more than 2 that needed replacing).

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
