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?

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
