$200 cheaper than what? I have bought a few times from this supplier:
http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/splitfire-m-45.html
 

$200 cheaper than from justjap or redline performance. I presume that website you've linked is Australian pricing?
At the end of the day don't be a tight arse


Right, but don't want to pay $200 or whatever more to get the same product if you get what I mean, I've decided to get Splitfires but I've just got to find the best place to et them now
I was more so saying don't get inferior products or fake ones 


Oh right, sorry. Yeah I'll just spend the money and buy Splitfires.. rather have the coils last. I'll probably just buy from the website that Kiwi suggested

This eBay link shows me AU $498.64 + AU $49.14 shipping = $547.78 all up. 

Just Jap do the same product at $549: http://justjap.com/splitfire-direct-ignition-coil-packs-sf-dis-008.html

I've had good experiences with both companies (Japex for some of the rarer parts) but I'm not sure why you'd order from Japan if the price is virtually identical? Perhaps you were comparing USD prices to AUD?

Anyway on coil packs more generally, I had OEMs with slight misfire on idle, Yellow Jackets with slight misfire on idle, and now Splitfires with slight misfire on idle. Everything's been checked a million times and the car runs and boosts totally fine, however I don't believe a 100% misfire-free RB25DET exists if my engine is anything to go by.

Hmm, I'm from New Zealand and I was just working the ebay one out to be about 660 or something. The local nz store wants $780 I think. I have an RB25DE, might be different but it's the first time I've ever had misfires.

Run e85 and misfires will be a thing of the past. Mine idles so smoothly, put 98 in it and it's like a tractor. Lol.

Ah sorry mate missed the NZ part. If you're happy to wait go with Japex, or grab a printout and go bargain with the local store :)

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
