cant say i have had much luck with superspark's. my first set started missing about a week into use. then got another set on warrenty and there also starting to miss after a few months of use. had to re gape the plugs to make it not splutter under boost.

Well even though both are good, the owner of Superspark has a reputation for honouring his warranty; whereas Splitfire is reluctant to do so.

Looms need to still be in good condition in case some questions arise.

i don't care about how much they are, i just want something that will just work, and keep working, ive had so many problems with coilpacks im up to my 3ed set so i just want something good.

Insufficient info...

Are your looms flexible as they should be?

Does your car use an ignitor?

Over how may kms and under what sort of load is your car going through?

how flexible does the loom have to be? i don't think mines flexible at all

i have an ignitor

she has done 114541 ks

and my car just goes through everyday driving for now.

What coilpacks are in your car now? If you are simply replacing 15 year old Nissan coilpacks with second hand 15 year old Nissan coilpacks then obviously you will still have problems.

Brand new Nissan coilpacks are the best you can get however quite dear. Hence why every one goes Splitfire coilpacks. Everything else made in Taiwan or China is obviously not going to be as good quality. Hence the price being so much cheaper.

If you are still having missfire problems even on brand new coilpacks then the issue lies elsewhere.

sorry to dig up an old post, going through missfire problems saw this post liked the cheapfix.

Question, would you bother to go one step further and remove spark plugs tape over thread/seat surface and EURTHANE SEAL COAT the spark tubes and surrounding end to end of the head.

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
