well turns out, as many of you had said, that the coil packs are stuffed, i hadnt retried them with the new plugs yet, but while ive been waiting for the plugs i showed my coils to my mechanic and he quickly identified what was wrong with them....on one side of the coil there is a clear plastic resin that insulates the wires, well in that resin you can see black burn marks where its shorted out,,,i saw the marks before but never relised they werent supose to be like that because all 6 coils have these marks!!!! i cant believe my car even started!!

cant wait to drive the car once i get the new coils and plugs in

Wow all six where out haha, thats crazy...car should be so much better when you get that all fixed up!!

yeah for sure, cant wait, im considering gettting these coils, http://www.redlineperformance.co.nz/?actio...∂=26090 anyone know what brand they are? as the split fires are almost 1000 bucks :P

a mate of mine just got yellow jacket coils for his 33 gts-t and has found them good. they only cost him a bit over $300

yeah i was interrested in thoes yelow jackets too but the retail guys say they are still in testing for the NEO :P

turns out that the red ones in the pic are the coils for a r32, lol but all they could tell me was they are all black casing and get them from the same place in tiawan where they make the splitfires and they have a 12 month warrenty under the store,

but im pretty impressed with the factory ones even tho they all blew, cos after all they are 12 years old!

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
