Hi,

Looking to replace the coils in my Stagea, I've got some yellow jacket coils from a spec2 R33 GTST which I tried to fit in my S1 Stagea but it didn't run right and overheated the trans? I don't know how the coils related to the transmission overheating but that only happened when the yellow jackets were fitted.

I was looking on Nengun and it shows the coils for a Stagea being different from R33 spec2 coils, shows them as being the same as R32/R33 GTR coils. Can someone confirm this is correct as the listing on Nengun also shows the engine code for the Stagea as RB25DE.

Thanks

That Hitachi chart looks wrong. Yes DE and DET are the same but should be the same as R34GTR not R33 GTR

Ref their Splitfire chart instead. You need SF DIS 005

http://www.nengun.com/splitfire/super-direct-di-ignition-system

or you can get then in Australia from:

BTW the Yellow Jackets for S2 R33GTST should have fitted your S1 Stagea (although they could have been faulty)

ref YJ RB2526-S2

Hallo bud, as above, the spec 2 r33 gtst coils should have fitted. (You do have s1 rs4?)

Where did you get the yellow jackets from?

They're not necessarily the cheapest but autoextreme can sort you out some decent ones.

Just whatever you do - don't get benchmark ones! I know of more sets that have failed than work lol.

Yea it's a S1 RS4

I can't remember who I bought them from, a UK based tuner probably - would have been about 4 years ago.

Will give autoextreme a look, thanks.

I've never heard of that brand lol. I've been on skylineowners for a while so tend to read up on stuff there, it's just people on here know a lot more about the Stagea.

just get standard coils from kudos motorsport. they are the same price as splitfires.

I'm in the UK so import taxes would make them more expensive.

I put a different set of yellow jackets from my mates R33 in which ran fine but I think the plugs maybe part of the issue.. It'll accelerate fine for the most part but will have a rapid misfire under boost/hard acceleration. I'm going to double check everything else that I've messed about with too (loosening of pipes to get at coils and the 2 stage high boost mod).

If you are using copper plugs they should be something like NGK BCPR6ES but whatever gap them down to 0.8mm. To properly check for boost leaks make up a plug and pressure test to about 20 psi. If its dying under hard acceleration it could be R&R (look it up if you are not familiar with the term Rich and Retard) caused by too much boost.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
