hey guys,

i have just upgraded my coilpacks to yellow jackets but just had a look at my old ones that where on the car, cause when i bought the car never checked what coil packs it had so i had a look and they are nissan hanshin MCP-300 22433 60U02 and had a read there GTR ones but not sure..

Any idea what model or what there from? cause think i might have upgraded for nothing or which ones out of the 2 would be better in your opinions?

so you bought new coilpacks when your current ones obviously had no issue ?

Just because it has no issues, doesn't mean you shouldn't do something about one of the most common problems (most people will eventually run in to) on skylines.

They call this preventative maintenance. Quite smart actually.

not really. smart preventative maintenance is things like changing the thermostat or fuel filter or timing belt. things that if things go wrong they can cause damage to the engine. changing coil packs if they are working fine isn't preventing any damage. you could almost liken it to changing your tyres when they are only half worn rather than waiting until they are getting closer to the wear markers.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
