Does anyone know where I can buy the JJR coil packs i hear they are as cheap as the yellow jacket ones. Its just I don't want to wait for the yellow jacket coil packs, because of christmas it will take ages.

Most people would recommend spit fires for my R34 GTT its true to be honest but, I am not so keen on Spitfires maybe when I start doing some performance upgrades but, at the current moment very basic modifications like exhaust and boost controller so dont want to buy spitfires. Yellow Jackets cost $420 include postage any bright ideas. I cant drive the skyline at the moment until I change the coil packs.

REALLY WANT TO GET THE CAR BACK ON THE ROAD!

Define rubbish?

There are some test results floating around showing they all perform the same as standard coil packs. Voltages and Amps etc.

Most of the time when a coilpack setup is claimed as rubbish, there is something else in the system wrong.

I had them in my 25/30DET, with 1.1mm gapped plugs, making a metric shit ton of torque (Un known as it wouldn't stop wheel spinning on the dyno, or track for that matter... But enough to put 69% injector duty cycle on 880 CC injectors with an 11:1 AFR...) and it never missed a beat.

i define rubbish as after useing 3 diffrent sets and the car still miss fired, so they were returned to buy a set of splitfires which fixed the miss fire and never missed a beat again. but that was on a sr20 maybe their rb ones are better

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
