Picked up my new r33 few weeks back, happy with the car..

Gave it a cut and polish. looks like new. removed the windcutters on the side,

car looks even better.. removed some rust from the boot and gave it abit of a spray wit black can paint. amazing wat you can do to increase the looks of ur car. also got a nismo oil cap and horn for free.

anyway, 1 problem i was having wit the car was like every 1 else. 5 and a half thousand rpm the car would start to puff* from the zorst.. feel power slightly stop. I figured it was the coils.. I took it to one of my mates work shops. the dude changed the coils and the car was boosting fantastic. after giving it abit of caining he said car is good to go. which it was. he charged me mates rates at $150 bucks for 20 minutes worth of work. i also realised that i have a missing electronic boost controller.. the vacum was connected straight running full 10psi. just like VL style. (does any 1 know how much a stock boost controller costs?)

anyway.. i was driving home from dandenong and gave it abit on the right pedal abit.. not even and hour later. the coil is fcuked. well its puffing again.

can any 1 let me know what is making me chew up coils so quick. (how much for a new coil pack?, ill be doing the next change myself?)

and just another thing. when ur cruzing and the doors auto lock. does the driver side door as well?. because i think mine has been disconnected.

here is a pic of my car before i removed the performance stickers.

[Pva_Glue]

I had one brass one with unicorn or Horse on it.

[LastTemptation]

Umm its black plastik with the skyline logo in it,

i have 2 keys, one a japanese screw driver looking thing, which is pink. very embarressing to pull out// (these jap kids are lost)

and another 1 cut in aus. datsun style. looks cheap.

ill take a pik of the screw driver thing so every 1 can have a laugh.

yer thats the one. OKay guys took my car for a nice run after i reset the ecu.. looks like the problem is gone.. the car is also running better and my turbo timer is working sweet.. i just have to reply cos im so happy.

i think the ecu used my old coil settings and retarded the timing or something i dunno, but know its fine..

and just another thing. when ur cruzing and the doors auto lock. does the driver side door as well?. because i think mine has been disconnected.

no it's only the passenger door that locks...

[walkoau]

all four of my doors lock...

i rember there was a thread on this a while back so you can do a search if ur keen to find out more

What the... $150 for 20 minutes work? I hope that was including the price of the coils! Although I don't think there was anything wrong with them, it's common for the stock ECU to over fuel in upper rev ranges and cause a lot of smoke to be let out. If it happens again and resetting the ECU doesn't help, don't change the coils. Get something to tune the ECU with instead.
