Morning mate

Sounds like a good plan

Igniter is in the coils, does not look like loom or coils TBH they operate under load and at speed, not plugs either.

Background on the car:

400rwhp r34 gtt

never had an issue with missfire ever

109000K's

only missing at revs while free revving

no issues under load or at max boost (23psi)

Igniter should be a separate unit consisting of transistors/diodes. they are on the back of the rocker cover on rb26s - not sure where located on r34gtt. They are also referred to as a Power Transistor Unit

I believe that in s2 Rb25's and neos, the ignitor is inside the coilpack. Unlike the s1 Rb25. I'm not familiar with 26 setups though

RB26's have their igniter module at the back on top of the plug covers.

rb25s - Answered

MagicMikeZ32 would know all about them failing lol

Mine were 20+ years old, no issues. Don't even need engine out to change them.

Having said that, I am using yellow jackets at the mo, for no aparant reason other than 'modify'

Not the coils the PTU in Z32s. I had to replace mine. http://forums.nicoclub.com/tip-for-ptu-problems-t276337.html

So thats the difference between S1 and S2 packs.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
