They earth so they need mounting half descent being my problem and being 008 they pack alot of punch so nothing too close otherwise she gonna spark out I just figured because they make these 008 for the RB especially that there would be a R33 or R34 bracket that holds them on the rb25det

Hell no buddy they were listed on eBay to fit my vehicle a 97 rsfour stagea, got the part opened the box and obviously wrong part. Clearly won't fit without modifications to a bracket of some sort. After research they are much stronger than 005 but I'm just after advise on how to mount these, or even if they will work on my series of 1 stag, somebody could want swaps and have my reverse problem. No pissing contest but kudos won't refund or send me the correct part without taking 30% so sau it is

I would be more than surprised if any Splitfire was more powerful than any other Splitfire.

There is no real difference between a Splitfire made to suit a vanilla 25 and a Splitfire made to suit a Neo25, except the physical fitting.

Your research is faulty. Whoever is saying that one is stronger than the other is smoking crack.

(And it is not that hard to work out that if you have a Neo engine, you need Neo coils.)

And if Kudos are really wanting over $800 for a set these days, it is madness to even consider buying them when the step up to some R35 coils is not that far.

I bought a crate engine out of a series 2 laurel rb25det neo, I have sorted everything out all but the coil pack bracket. When I got the engagement me it had 008 just floating point under the cover. Upon putting it all together I can't find a bracket to install them properly other than a rb25det series one 005 coil pack holder. eBay or JDM pages don't list anything to hold these 008 in place.

Just draw one up with the required holes on paper. Then transfer to suitable piece of ally and cut the holes and shape the outside. Take you 2 hours, max.

That sounds like a crock of shit to me.. I've they've sent you the wrong item surely they'd offer an exchange... ? Unless you ordered the wrong part number?

      Hi and best of luck with your car. Its a bit hard to tell how low the car is all round from that pic or if its been lowered or not. 90mm is a bit low on the front apron but it depends on the shocks & springs condition & whether or not its been lowered. Going to 19” wheels will give you 15-20mm depending on rubber but you might need new shocks. Mine -2005 are weeping fluid slightly but have lasted 19years!!. So if yours are original they need replacing anyway if they havent been touched before.

      Hi everyone, Recently got handed down a 2004 Skyline 350GT Coupe. I would like to change the wheels as the previous owner installed some weird ones. The current ones are 215/45ZR18, unsure of the offset, and sit pretty deep in. Would like to increase the ground clearance slightly as well as I need to get it roadworthy standard, currently sitting at 90mm. Was thinking that maybe I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone by getting new wheels.  Pictures of current wheels: https://imgur.com/bg1QMIu Any recommendations for the types of wheels I should be on the lookout for? Like the maximum and minimum offset, sidewall height, width, etc.  Sorry in advance if I'm noob, I do not know much about cars other than how to change the oil, a blown tyre and brakepads....

      Problem with 5th after manual swap on R32 GTS4

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Most likely your engine is toast, but also the R32 GTR has different ratios than the GTS4. In 5th it's basically the same, it's mostly 1st through 3rd that change. Stop trying to do WOT pulls before you make the engine entirely unsalvageable. Do a leakdown test and/or borescope the cylinders first. And a boost leak can overspeed a turbo. Make sure the turbo actually functions as intended.
