i got my set 4 $600, that was 1 year ago...

it all depends on the jap aussie dollar at the time, i reckon that price was bloody good compared to all the other brands n splitfires r reliable...

just dont expect any power gains lol :D ... they combined with NGK platinums stopped any missing n lasted really well... i was almost tempted to try the splitfire plugs??? dunno any1 thats used those tho???

ohok cool thanks man..

umm you wouldnt know a site i could go to where i could buy them at all??

so if they arent for any power gains... do they just last longer or what are some of the advantages of having them?

while im there what are some other good combinations to go with this mod? i've already got a pod heat shielded etc...

also one other question... would i notice any difference if i upgraded my cat to hi-flow? i only have stock piping.. but got the muffler and pod on there... i'll eventually get custom mandrel cat back piping would it make a difference going to a hi-flow cat aswell?

Also if anyone knows anything about injectors as an upgrade.. how much/what kind am i looking for?

this is my first jap car... ive gone from commodores to imports so yeah im only just learning sorry guys

i went 2 a place called lynx that imported them 4 me, im not sure bout places up ur way... google is ur friend lol :D ... the only thing i found is that they were alot more reliable than other brands n they fixed up all of the ignition trouble i had like misfiring

best possible thing u can do exhaust wise is to get rid of any restrictions u can that are blocking exhaust gases, eg. mufflers, hot dogs, cats etc... Only problem is doing this will make ur car very much illegal

what u will be best doin is a full 2.5" exhaust including extractors (3" u will loose alot of low end power)... its up 2 u with stainless or mild steel, i did mild as it was cheaper n made a much betta sound :D ... put a hi flo cat in it (dont gut the cat lol)... a hi flo muffler with a nice big single or twin tip... that way it should be putting out about 90db which in nsw is legal, dunno bout qld tho... only trouble i found is that sitting on 3k revs it dronnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnned lol

Pod i would sell n leave the stock airbox n snorkle on it with a good K&N panel filter

N/As cost alot to get any big power gains! i would personally just do a nice simple cat back n work on suspension n handling

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
