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.

wtf... it's a 15 min job

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.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
