Hello :thumbsup:

Just need a little advice on coilpacks for my r32 GTR as i need to replace mine. I know spitfire are 'the best' you could get (maybe) but what about the other brands? I've found the following:

Just-Jap racing brand:

http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=307&page=1

Superspark brand:

http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/pr...products_id=249

and this other one which im not 100% on:

Performance-wise brand on ebay (the yellow ones)

I'm not looking to get any sort of dramatic improvement and I'm only planning to run stock boost for a while untill i can get better turbos and a PowerFC.

Thankies ^^

I personally have Splitfires and they have been perfect for over 2 years worth of abuse in an RB25 that would be making around 260 - 270 kw at the flywheel.

I hear that the JJR ones are pretty decent value for money though.

I looked into this a little and from what people said I couldn't go past the Splitfires. I will let you know shortly what they are like! Cause I have the feeling that at least one of my coilpacks was about to give up on me before my car went in :)

When i brought my R32 first little mod i did was Splitfire's notices a little difference in rev's coming on a bit smoother.

Would say they are the best around as i have never heard a bad thing about them yet.

But same goes for the JJR ones, so it all comes down to RED VS BLUE what colour do you like more lol

    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
    • FYP. Sadly. Even bolt cutters wouldn't take 2 sec. But in the days of 18v angle grinders, nothing is safe.
    • One piece driveshaft I would recommend a dual CV setup otherwise stick to OEM. I have heard most one piece driveshafts cause excess vibration otherwise. The transmission grind I'm quite familiar with. You can try shockproof gear oil, otherwise you need a new transmission. The shifter is extremely simple on these cars. If you want pull apart the assembly and replace the plastic bushing but I doubt that fixes anything. The tail light issue is very common, unfortunately new tail lights are long discontinued. The trunk antenna going up always is because your radio doesn't have a true power antenna control, just remote amp power signal. There is a blank switch plate that you can pop out and install a switch for this or alternatively source a head unit that has proper antenna control. Throttle body sticking you have to disambiguate by disconnecting the cable and seeing if the linkages are the problem or something else. There is a procedure to adjust them, refreshing them is also somewhat involved if that's the issue. I have dealt with many of these issues. Old cars really are fractals of problems. The more you fix the more you discover there is to fix.
    • Welp, you've got a long list of experiences right there. I'd say you're on the right path.
    • That's correct, suits my requirements a bit better. Sure there are also numpties there, however it's generally a different vibe and more my kind of vibe.
