Hi all!

I'm running out of spark with my RB25DET S2.

I have fresh sparkplugs and the coilpacks seems externally undamaged.

Anyway, now I'm planning on updating the coilpacks.

There's a bunch of different kinds of aftermarket coilpacks, but are there really any difference between them except the price?

Found this relatively cheap coilpack set on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.u...=item1c27d92b13

Does anyone know how this works? Any good?

Many thanks on the replies!

What's the difference between yellow jackets and the red splitfires? Are they the same?

Splitfires are blue

Splitfires are the best

Nearly 4 years with mine and not a single hiccup.

They will all create spark, but some are more reliable then others

To add to this thread, I recently bought a R33 and went to replaced the spark plugs and to my disbelief, I am running 5x Yellow Jackets and 1x OEM coilpack. So off to eBay I went to try and find 1x Yellow Jacket and instead saw these coilpacks "APPARENTLY" made in Japan and only $250 delivered from Japan... I do however find it too good to be true.

They are backed witha 2 year warranty (no idea how dafuq that's going to work LOL)

Cheap

Look like Superspark Coilpacks

I'm a tad game on trying them, considering the Yellow Jacket distributor wants $100 delivered for just 1x coilpack.. what a rip off!

Seriously - just go Splitfires.

There are so many folk on here that buy everything else but splitfires to save money and have issues with at least 1 of 6.

Some have had them replaced free of charge and again at least 1 failure out of 6.

I've seen 2 reports of these Fuji coilpacks (red) misfiring on N/A skylines, 1 coilpack failing within the first couple of weeks.. i'd hate to see how badly they perform with more added stress (turbo skyline).

I bought genuine oem coils off ebay for my s2 recently for $250 delivered :)

I still can't wrap my head around brand new OEM coils for $250.. when they're like $100+ for each coil from most traders

They were over $1000 a set from Nissan!

I bought an ebay set and they look genuine and seem to work ok. I heard they came from a bankrupted Nissan dealer in the US though why they would have huge stocks of them I don't know. I hope they are not fake but are working so far at 20psi and 280kw. See what happens with a bit more power.

On another note a Stagea owner says his Yellowjackets broke down after 18 months!

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
