I have just built a 25/30 as my old 25 died at just under 400rwkw. I have Haltech E11v2 and am using Splitfire coils. I want to upgrade the ignition and was thinking about a MSD dis4 and mercury marine coils. Will this work with the haltech while running wasted spark?

What would be my best option to work with my ecu?

Why are you running wasted spark? You are decreasing the coil recharge time by 50%.

Run 6 ignition circuits with the Splitfires and it will be fine.

so this would be better??

MSD Digital-6 Plus CD Ignitions

Power, accuracy, and efficiency.

MSD has combined race-winning experience with leading-edge technology to offer these incredible Digital-6 Plus ignitions. The 15 MHz micro-controller can analyze up to 15,000,000 critical instructions per second! That's over three times faster than comparable ignitions. Every spark is packed with 135 millijoules of spark energy and 535 V of power. Built-in features on the MSD Digital-6 Plus ignition include two rotary switch adjustable rev limiters, a single-stage timing retard, a start-up timing retard, an LED fault display, EMI protection, and much more! You get complete combustion for greater power, quicker throttle response, smoother idling, and quicker starts. You always get more power with less current draw.

Surprisingly a dis-6 isnt a 6 channel cdi, its only one channel. To run 6 channel cdi, use a m&w pro-12, or a dis-4 and dis-2. I wouldnt have thought that the coil recharge time would be an issue when running wasted spark cdi, as there really isnt a recharge time. Also he is running an rb25/30 so there arent going to bo massive revs. PS 1jz's run waste spark from the factory and they dont seem to have ignition dramas. So do 4g63's

just get a HKS ignitor box, plenty of jap workshops running the factory coil (or replacement) with the HKS box, works a treat but hasnt really caught on here which i find odd considering its great and uses all the factory gear

i have a set of the haltech high power coilpacks for sale brand new in boxes for $480 (cost $650 new), my tuner reccomended them for over 35psi boost and 700rwhp+, the tuner runs these on his 2jz drag car running high 8's down the track and making 700hp so they are the ones to go for.

give me a PM if your keen

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 馃槅 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 馃檪 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
