i should be getting a coil from a GTS-t from one of the WA members a bit cheaper. provided the turbo coils are the same for the NA engines.

where can you get replacement springs or 'carbon rods' from? don't they attach inside the coil somehow?

u can get some replacement springs from a Nissan dealership. they just pull in and out off the carbon rod on the inside of the coil pack.

You can get springs from L & T venebles, there's one in Wangara. They're like $2 for a pack of 4.

I used them in my R32. You don't NEED the little carbon bit, it runs fine with just the spring.

and you just pop them in the end? they don't need to be stuck in there? :whatsthat

That will be for the carbon canister, usually located passenger side, just in front of the (standard) air box.

mm it comes out of there and over the engine but doesn't attach to anything else. even though it has a clip on the end as if it had been attached to something.

SECUR1TY: can't see any carbon rod in there either :D its all just white dust etc

i'll have to double check them tonight i think.

dont worry about the carbon rods.. my bad

just stretch your springs slightly and get a little dremil drill with a sander attachment and sand away the layer of shit on the inside of the coil where the spring sits in to a nice shine.

you'll be amazed on how much crap comes out of it.. all that crap causes misfires on everyones car because it doesnt allow for a good contact between the coil and the spring... and then they go out and spend $700 on splitfires.. this is definately a good fix for it. mine have been running excellent since i did it.

haven't had time to get hold of springs or a dremel yet but managed to get a coil pack which i put in last night.

was slightly different to my others and the plug didn't quite fit properly, managed to rejig it and connect it but it still sounds like a wrex :)

so i've pulled it out again.

no idea why it didn't work, perhaps due to it not fitting correctly.

i think now i'll just get someone out to look at it, don't want to do more harm than good.

well.. a coil for another engine wouldnt work, i imagine.

completely different application.

give the sanding a go before you take it anywhere. go to any nissan dealer for the springs or even a wrecking yard

the coil pack was from an R33 GTS-t which i was informed is the same as mine.

the guy looking at it tomorrow is currently putting an RB25 into a 200sx so he should know his way around ok.

    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
    • Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
