What do you guy's think about the HKS Twin Power ignition upgrade. ?

will this make the stock coils handle more power.?

if not can anyone suggest a ignition upgrade that would be better for around 600 dollars.

Thanks guy's

whats the problem you are trying to solve

I used to be able to run 20 psi i checked everything and it seems fine, the only thing new is a 40 thow bore and built motor.

with stock injector. so i just upgraded the injectors now I'm doing a data log with the new lm2 and datalogit software for the skyline gts-t.

the whole set up has changed I'm using Kyle's 6boost top mount with a 44mm tial gate and gt35r turbo.

the car is sputtering to red line I'm thinking the only thing missing is new coils. i have 280l/h sard in tank pump and still using z32 afm.

it's night now so I'm going to sleep any ideas would help for the new approach tomorrow.

thanks again guy's

Well stock coils did 370rwkw on my car no problem, and have done similar in GTR's time over before a twin power was required...

So if your not @ that power, then you've got either bad plugs/coils or coil loom IMO

new std coils are better than any aftermarket option but they are way too dear, the twin power kit works very when matched to functioning std coils but it cant fix a dodgy coil. There are plenty of 700hp and up cars running std coils with a decent amplifier like the hks or ULtra twin power kits.... veilside is pushing over 1000ps on std coils.

While on this topic, has any one seen a power increase throughout the rev range from installing a HKS twin power even when the coils are functioning properly? Would the amplified power into the coil packs create a more efficient burn causing an increase in power through out the revs? Or is it a negligible increase? Bit curious about this.

not disputing this, just interested, but better how?

What plug gap would you guy's run when using the HKS twin power on standard coils and splitfire. ?

I'm using HKS Super Fire m-series plugs M45 and never touched the gap there number 9's heat rang.

I'm planing on running 20 psi and up until i max the z32 afm.

As for the coil i just orders the splitfire coils.

thanks guy's

I'm running the following:

HKS Twin Power DLi

Splitfire Coilpacks for RB25DET NEO

HKS Race Plugs (un-touched)

RB26/30 motor...

So far it runs like a wet dream, but we're only at 1BAR, will see how it goes with 2 - shouldn't be any problems though.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
