Howdy everybody, I'm recently new to the forum/community, read a few topics here and there but never joined up.

However, currently having a issue with my car and looking for some advice from anyone who can lend a struggling bloke a hand.

So, I bought my 2001 r34 25gt at 60k on the clock. At about 90 the standard coil packs started missing the first time. We couldn't find the single coil that was missing. So went ahead and replaced all 6.

I bought them on eBay in 2012 and because of some of the websites gayness I can't go back to view last items in detail from that long ago and I can't for the life of me remember what brand they were and other stuff. And I haven't had a chance to pull them out and look at them.

However I was just wondering as iv noticed it's a regular problem for neo6 motors with the temperature, if anyone knows the best coils to buy for the N/A 25gt or even any advice on how to combat the problem.

Also looking to get a high flow panel filter. Any suggestions on brands or whether it may be better to go a pod filter even though air intake would be warm from motor.

Cheers

Laanyy

Stock panel filter is perfectly fine to make alot of power through. Like 3 times the power an na will make so save your cash.

The best coils are genuine nissan ones.

Then split fire.

Might not actually be the coils though, it could be the loom.

As above, genuine nissan coils are the best bet, many people run splitfires because I believe they are cheaper and just as effective.

Protip: you're not going to make decent power out of an n/a. Short of shaving the head and increasing compression, there isn't anything that will give you significant gains. When you are off your P's, get a GTT.

If it is missing on idle, unplug each coil one by one until you find that the one you unplugged does not make it run worse.

Thanks brothers.

I'm well off p's but I'm just fixing a few bugs on this car before I look to chucking her on the market to upgrade.

We did do trial and error with the coils but it rarely misses and never seems to miss on idle when we have the bonnet of idle which is why I don't mind just replacing all 6

If it were to be the loom, what ways do I have to test it?

And again if I were to replace it, just go with genuine Nissan?

Do either of you fellas know a link or where I could get new genuine Nissan neo coils?

The looms are hard to check as they fail intermittently due to dodgy cracked connectors etc.

I would say amayama would be cheapest for coils, but as you are selling it I wouldn't bother buying new.

Where are you located?

I have some yellow jacket coils laying around you can try and if they work buy them for cheap.

I'm in the Yarra Valley pretty much.

Replaced the spark plugs but haven't cleaned the AFM yet, however not to sure I will bother considering it has started missing more frequently especially under load up hills in low gears around 2 and half revs. So can guarantee the problem is most likely caused by something to do with temperature and the loom considering the miss isn't all the time. I would think if the AFM needed cleaning the miss wouldn't be irregular

But let's just say I was to replace the coils, loom and panel filter.

What would be the best options considering I'm not looking to save money to not looking to spend a fortune.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
