hay guys i have a problem and for the life of me cant find the cause

car is a s1 r33 one morning i came out and started the car started fine as u usual was sitting there idling getting ready to go and it just stalled would turn over but not fire. Traced the cause of that back to the coil packs i have lost my 12v to the coilpacks, for the time being i have tapped into the 12v on the side of the engine bay and it starts perfect(will this hurt anything by the way?) but cant seem to find out why the 12v in the loom has gone. Is there a fuse for that specific 12v to the loom or could it be something else ?? any help would be much appreciated cheers guys.

sorry should have added this before the loom on my car has been changed to a s2 loom and coils and as i said the car was running fine before so i know its not the wiring on that thats the cause ??

Try looking at fuse number 3. It feeds an ignition relay above the ECU that pulls in when the ignition is turned on and sends the 12V to the coil packs.

There are a few 12V relays just above the ecu in the passenger kick panel. Can't remember if its the blue or brown one. You should here them click when you turn the ign on

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
