Hey i just got a set of splitfire coilpacks cause when it was getting tuned before it was breaking up because of the old coilpacks. So now its tuned to 13 psi with the GT3040R and i was wondering if putting the new coilpacks in now will stuff anything up before i send it for the re-tune?... or should i just wait till the tune?, problem is even now the old ones are breaking up every now and agian just driving normally so i wouldnt mind replacing them,.. just dont know if everythin will be sweet if i put the new ones in.

And yeah i have the rest of the supporting mods for the turbo and what not.

Cheer

Matt

Even though there a better quality? they just deliver the spark yeah? wont have a different spark ratio or anything will they? I dont think so but im just making sure. Im leaving the same wiring so it should all be good hey

i put a set in over the weekend and got it checked on the dyno today.

Before: HKS twin power, standard coils and plugs gapped to .7 =565rwhp @25psi

After: Added in the splitfires and plugs gapped to .9 = 574rwhp @24psi

boost was slightly lowered because plugs started to struggle with gap at .9 i could slightly lower the plug gap and run more boost but im happy as it is.

seemed to gain power pretty much throughout the whole curve.

and there was no need to change any of the tune but i thought better safe than sorry.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
