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

100% genuine, genuine part numbers and packaging. From the states, same story as bob.

I couldnt believe the price also, hes a good person to deal with, very helpful and check his feedback

I'm a tad hesistant on buying them, but you guys are saying they work

Well so was i for the price, but he says they come from a dealer in the states closed down or something like that.

For me the thing that done it was, his communication and have a look at his feedback, nearly 1000 @ 100% positive, nothing wrong with that!

Bob, so did you buy it from the same link too?

http://www.ebay.com....1#ht_693wt_1271

I'm really tempted to buy them now to replace my homo mismatched Yellow Jackets

Just checked - and no was another Aussie ebayer and i paid $400 and he is not selling now so maybe he was a reseller - was over a year ago and they are still working fine!

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!

Yay revive old post because I used the search function :P 

im considering the Fuji spark coils because I can actually afford them. But I have no clue what they're like and can only find old reviews from like 5 years ago. 

Or should I get yellow jacket?

its kinda pushing it for yellow jackets and then split fires which I'd love are just out of the picture currently

not sure if I should risk it or not

I suggest you research wisely on what I have highlighted.

yeah search function will reveal most opinions on said highlighted product
i see more and more people selling used splitfirfes on fb pages, i would trust them over the cheaper options.

Right... what exactly do you mean by that? Or is there anything in particular you are referring to?

I took a look on Facebook and couldn't find any posts unfortunately

I have yellowjackets and they work fine [emoji14]
But my engine is standard, standard boost.
If you're going to push it, Splitfire or new OEM.


I've just got a standard 25RS Four Stagea, RB25DE NEO. So it's not exactly a high performing car haha.

I won't need expensive coils I take it

Try using Google for searching. Facebook isn't the place for info on this type of thing. I'll spell it out for you. Spitfire and oem is the way to go for standard style coilpacks. All the other brightly coloured ones have sketchy reputations. These days people convert to ls1/2 coils and Toyota yaris, Audi r8 amongst others. Just remember you get what you pay for. If you need more info than that, GOOGLE[emoji6]

Yellow jacket are probably only about $100 cheaper. When I used google the first 10 results were all SAU. I'll do some research on LS coils

Cheers.
Ls coils are not direct fit. Oem or split fire is my recommendation. Whichever you can get cheaper or easier.

Figured that, not too sure whether I should just replace the shot one or go and buy a whole set. As I don't know if I want to replace one then have another one go down the road lol

I'm leaning towards splitfire but don't really have the money for a full set
I'd suggest selling the car cause you obviously can't afford the repair bills on it


Okay so I probably worded it wrong, I don't have money set aside for coils. Doesn't mean I don't have the money for them, I do, lol.

If that's the case and money is scarce, gap the plugs down to 0.6mm and see if that fixes it for now and keep a look out on eBay Gumtree forums for some used coils to mix and match to make a full set. I bought an oem set off ebay a year ago for $10 as spares, they also came with a loom. I tested them just to see if they where any good and they where. Good luck.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
