what is the in's and outs on these? and do they fix the coilpack  problems (4000-5000 popping) people get from there skylines???

theres a thread by someone that the is a hairline crack on the coil, if you tape that up it will stop the 5000 poping / boost cutting feeling.

also in that thread, someone argued that the power fc or was it a safc will resolve that problem too.

dont know if its true or not, so i will have a look at the coils this weekend and tape it, cause mine pops alot and cant keep up with the boys

were the $1000 prices in Aus for immediately available? Because the Nengun price may require 15% duty + 10% GST making it $750, and could take a couple of weeks sea freight. I guess people are often willing to pay more to get them sooner

Sounds like the stock coils are pretty weak.

Nope - just many years old and been through lots of heat cycles (ambient to maybe 80C). Given these conditions, I think that they survive pretty well!

After messing around with buying used coils, I went for the Splitfires to get rid of the missing once and for all. New coils from Nissan are actually more than the Splitfires.

Im Running 12psi - suffering the same problem both in my GTS-T and GTR both 93's. You could go a bosch external coil pack like I did on the GTS-T prior to selling. I then sufferd a problem with the Ignitor. I beleive 10-12 years and thats enough, time to replace.

Correct on the age and also having them down the centre of the valley there is continuos heat in addition covered over by the plate. You will see alot of Skylines with the cover removed. Only problem removing is water/moister sitting.

Very interested in the Splitfire. Perhaps a group buy from Nengun and we could get a heap at a more affordable price.

Mate they are PISS easy. All u need is an allen key to undo the 8 allen bolts on the black nissan cover on the top of the engine. Remove the intake piping by undoing the hose clamps. Take off the black cover, then unclip each harness from the coil packs. Undo another few bolts, and the 2 coil pack assemblies come off.

how difficult are these to install?

I'm a newby, best left to the pro's?

      You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before

      OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:

      R34 manual conversion speed signal wire finding, need help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).

      And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
