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?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
