Alpha Omega Racing’s MONSTAR Ignition Kit for Skylines Group Buy

Hi all,

Alpha Omega Racing are running another group buy, but this time on their new MONSTAR ignition kits for various model Skylines.

Company:

Alpha Omega Racing - http://www.alphaomegaracing.com

I’m sure that most of you would know of Alpha Omega Racing by now, most likely because of their big brake kits which use the bigger Evo calipers. They also market a lot of other products for Skylines and Silvias, including one piece lightweight tailshafts, and now, upgraded ignition kits, allowing us to easily take advantage of the ACDelco LQ9 coilpacks (also known as LS2Truck or D585 coilpacks).

Product:

MONSTAR Ignition Kit (Version 2) to suit Skylines fitted with:

• RB20DET
• RB25DET (non-NEO)
• RB26DETT

Note: The kit to suit RB25DET NEO is still in testing, if interested, please let me know via PM.

After testing on various vehicles on the street and track, including their own S15 Silvia which competed at World Time Attack Challenge, Version 2 was designed. It adds secure coilpack keying (CMM measured coilpacks, CNC machined recessing) and machined-through cooling slots.

Why use ACDelco LQ9 coilpacks?

• Strongest coilpack used by an OEM
  • No misfires = more reliable power
  • Best throttle response
  • Increased mileage
• Guaranteed perfect fit
  • Uses OEM connectors

Features of Version 2:

1. Billet aerospace alloy 100% CNC machined in one continuous piece
2. Top side cooling slots machined through with heat sink cooling
3. Bottom side accurately “keyed” to secure and cool coilpacks
4. Fastened with the most bolts possible: 5 bolts

What’s Included?

The MONSTAR Ignition includes everything needed to bolt in and wire up your new coilpacks:

1. 1 x CNC machined billet alloy coilpack holder
2. 5 x CNC machined billet alloy stands
3. 1 x CNC machined billet stainless steel spring installation tool
4. 6 x LQ9 electrical plug kits
5. Various bolts and washers
6. Full installation instructions with colour pictures

What you need to get:

1. 6x LQ9 / D585 / LS2 TRUCK coilpacks

Alpha Omega Racing recommend OEM “AC Delco” coilpacks for quality, reliability and performance.

Special SAU Edition:

With the order for this group buy, “SAU Edition” will be laser beamed onto the rear.

Colours:

This group buy will include free custom colour anodising (normally has minimum cost of $150+). Colour options are: red, blue, black, silver, gold and green.

Pricing:

1 - 5 people        - $370 + GST + shipping ($50 discount + free anodising = save $200)

Group Buy Conditions:

The group buy will run until close of business on Tuesday 30th May 2017. Anybody interested in purchasing an ignition kit as part of the group buy should notify me via PM prior to the end date so that I can add them to the ‘buyer list’. At the conclusion of the group buy (30th-31st May 2017), I will provide Alpha Omega Racing with a total tally of person(s) included in the group buy. A discount ‘coupon code’ will be provided to each buyer on the 1st June 2017 allowing them to get the appropriate discount in the shopping cart on the Alpha Omega Racing website.

Note: Production for this group buy will not begin until all orders are placed and payments are cleared. Unfortunately in some previous group buys some buyers have not followed through meaning a higher discount was applied for the number of actual purchases. Timeframe for production and delivery of the ignition kits is 9 weeks from payments clearing.

Prior to the end date (30th May 2017) all communication will be with me either via this thread or via PM. At the conclusion of the group buy, once you have been provided with the discount code, all communication will be between the buyer and Alpha Omega Racing. All shipping and payment details will be between the buyer and Alpha Omega Racing only. Any warranty on the product(s) will be provided by Alpha Omega Racing.

If you have any questions regarding the kit or pricing, please don’t hesitate to contact me either via this thread or via PM.

Cheers,
Tim

Anyone else thinking about this? It's about another $300 when you add the cost of coils

[timmy_89]

Got a message from someone else saying to put their name down last night.

What kind of problems exactly?

[ONL31]

What kind of problems exactly?

They are over heating causing them to miss fire. Sounds like a machine gun.

[Weaselman]

Hmm that's going to be a big issue with the engine in mine. And I haven't had any problems with my splitfires

Hi Brodie,

Do you mind me asking what kit you have used to install the coilpacks and also if they are genuine ACDelco coilpacks?

Cheers

Oh right, sorry didn't click that it was a neo. Definitely odd, I know a number of people running L9Q coilpacks on SR's and RB's (non-neo) without issue. What changes were made to 'custom fit' the coilpacks for your engine? I would also be suspicious of the varying brands of coilpack. Have you tried running the car with other L9Q coilpacks of all the same brand that havent been modified?

I originally bought splitfire lq9 coilpacks because they said they were more heavy duty but 2 f**ked out straight away. So bought 2 genuine coils to replace the two stuffed ones but then started having issues with the miss fire. Tryed different was of wiring them in. Tryed different spark plugs. Ended up removing the rest of the splitfire ones but in the end didnt fix the issue.

There is a small rod welded to the bracket that helps bolt the coilpack into one of the factory bolt holes. Tryed the coils not bolted in n still had issues. Tryed taking off that clip that holds the heat sink but made no difference.

I haven't tryed running all the same coils. Ran out of money and time when i was putting it in. The tuner pretty much gave up on it.

[ONL31]

I should retract my comment about not recommending them. I may have just had a bad run and i would buy this bracket just to see if it makes a difference to my situation becuase Alpha Omega produce quality products which have been tryed n tested.

UPDATE: Currently sitting with 2 people keen which will apply a $50 discount. If a few more people jump in it will increase the discount to $100. Group buy finished on Tuesday week.

[timmy_89]

Just a reminder that this group buy finishes tomorrow (Tuesday 30th) at close of business for any interested.

[timmy_89]
