Me; I've bought two extra coilpacks and switched them around all over the place in an attempt to eliminate the sporadic 5 cylinders of doom issue...no avail...it's gotta be in the wiring or injectors. Have ordered a brand new coilpack look from Perth for $120 - apparently this is a common point of failure in the R33.

inb4 birds defending the honour of el cheapo coil packs

The only cheap coilpacks I happily defend are YJs. Have personally run them back to back with Splitfires and there is no difference. Spent my $200 saving on blackjack and hookers.

Haha replacing is not fun when there is 6 god damned coil packs to replace :P

Unbolt the bracket from the car, unbolt em from bracket 1 by 1 and replace. Tis like 10 minutes jeez. :P

I've got a set of Supersparks I got brand in a box when I bought my car from previous owner. They've got maybe 30-40k on them now and every single one has burnt marks on the outside of them either on the boots or on the coilpack body itself.

Check the loom plug, both ends. Make sure the wire is terminated into the plug firmly.

I've had this issue before and it was just a loose wire in the back of the harness side plug.

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
