So ! As the titles says ! 
 

yes I can do more research. But why when there is great people that are willing to come to you and actually explain? 
 

I have recently purchased R35 coils for my RB25 in my R33. 
2 months and 1 week exact they bo longer want to work. Not sure if it’s an individual one or all of them. But I’ve contacted Golebys Parts and they say that dwell timing is to high? How can it be to high when I’ve had splitfires in it and have gone back to them since these failed ? They refuse to refund me as ‘I’ve broken’ then myself somehow. 
 

just looking for people opinions on this as I don’t really want to waste $700+ on this again

Different coils have different dwell requirements. Changing to a cool that needs a lower dwell and not changing dwell settings to suit means you can very easily give a coil too much dwell. This will overheat and kill the coils.

Makes sense they won't refund you, it's not a coil issue if you have been using too much dwell

What dwell did golebys say to use?

I did drive mine at the settings PRP recommended for a period, then the last time I was tuning my car, Alex at Birrong had a look at my map and told me there's simply no need to run that much dwell in the coils. Told me to drop it sub 3ms at 14v.

No misfire either with 2 bar of boost.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
