Hey guys and girls. I've got a 25GT (non-turbo), had it since October last year and things have been running beautifully up until the last couple of months. Back in the start of March I was getting pretty intense misfires which turned out to be because of a faulty coilpack, due to money issues at the time I couldn't afford to replace all 6 so I only replaced #5 (the faulty one) and kept on going from there. Yesterday I started getting misfires again, not as bad as they were before and generally only noticeable when the engine is pretty hot or around 10-15 mins or so of driving, even then they aren't as bad as before.

I've run into a bit of money lately and just wanted some advice about coilpacks. I've heard that Splitfires are the way to go but since I haven't got a turbo I didn't know whether or not the difference is negligible or just straight up not worth the money I end up spending. Obviously if they just can't be beat I don't mind buying them since I can definitely afford to now, but if there are cheaper options available I'd prefer to buy them instead if the Splitfires will just be wasted in my engine. I'm not sure what information people will want before answering me but I'm happy to reply with whatever you need to know. :)

Thanks!

Yellow Jackets Coil packs are an excellent alternative. Ive ran these in 2 cars now over the last 4 years and they have worked flawlessly.

You can get them for around $400 from a trader here on SAU called Performance-Wise.

Heres their site: http://performance-wise.com/userimages/procart28.htm

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.

      The fact that US/JDM plates actually fit the skyline bumpers properly is a big, big thing for me as they are the correct dimensions. Annoyingly you can't opt for a normal plate (or plate combination) in that size. You have to make up your own one, and at that point you'd still know it wasn't randomly assigned.

      Well, really, that's any ECU, because it's not so much the ECU that the tuner connects to, but a laptop that's connected to the ECU. You have to have the tuning software installed locally. The "remote" part is essentially just remote desktop (RDP) or VNC type access. Nevertheless, if you're looking to upgrade, then you're immediately in the Haltech/Link territory, both of which can be done by any number of competent tuners here in Oz. But without a dyno, you'll definitely also need a wideband O2 sensor fitted, and you'll probably be relying on "auto" tuning a bit, where you drive it around under various loads and then apply the corrections that the ECU learns (basically applying the fuel trims that the ECU has to do to correct the mixtures). Tuning the timing is a little harder. It can be difficult to trust the old OEM knock sensors on RBs, so it is definitely best to have someone who knows what they're listening for, with knock ears (a piezo microphone connected to the engine, and and little amp and headphones so the listener can hear the angry men with hammers who live in the engine). That is more difficult to do remotely, and I suspect the only sane way is to be quite conservative on timing. But that's OK. You're probably waaaaay better off with conservative timing where you are. What is the fuel situation? 98RON available? Or low grade jungle juice?

      I see your point, I didn't think too deep into it, was purely focused on the price. There's no bad blood between myself and GSM, they acknowledged the price was cheaper else where and at the time couldn't match it.
