I was having problems with my coils in that they were breaking down under load whether from cracks in the casing of the coils or just coils on the way out so I called around to get pricing for new coils

Nissan New standard coils $1200.00 a set

Splitfires $600.00 a set

or the option I chose 6 X MEC717 Bosch coils $250.00 and Leads $50.00

here are some pictures it still utilises the standard ignitor.

My friend is responsible for the wiring up of them (Auto Electrician)

this was very easy to do and fit.

and it has performed faultlessly since fitting

i have seen this set up on one of the skylines in the HPR mags and they said it worked good but only if you change the leads very often

but i cant see why that is?

and yes please give detaila on the wireing set up would love to see how he set it up!

Sorry peoples I cannot be any help with a wiring diagram but as you can see from the photos we used the standard ignitor and just had to find the negative and positive from the orginal plugs for the coil packs and then connect them to the Bosch Coils.

Since fitting the coils I have had no problems with Leads they have been fine.

I have also Dyno tested the car since fitting the coils and there has been no loss of power at all so I have yet to find a negative side to the fitment of the coils.

also a added bonus is that if at a later date a MSD is required for additional spark it can be wired in with these coils for BIG boost.

Some of the guys in Qld have been playing with a similar concept but using the redundant spark twin outlet setup as on V6 commo's.

Still looks good and damn good price. A set of quality Eagle leads shouls last a long time at around $80 for the set if the current ones start to have issues.

Wiring this should be fairly easy if you think about it.

  • Like 1

the motor is a series 1 RB25

coils from Conventry Auto's Smithfield (SYD)

but you can source them from any auto1, Autobarn etc

Bosch MEC717 coils

Leads cost $50.00 for the set from Auto1

Satanic, my mate and I put everything together so no website or number

yeah man we love the stuff but we just dont know how to wire it all up

what im saying is that if your mate can draw something i would be happy to pay for him to do it so many people can do the same as you and get the good result!

I agree with let me drive, i would love this set up.

Can satanic draw something up.

I have looked at other coil packs ie.GDZ1LA coil packs.

But there is a bit of messing about to get one of these to go on a seris 1(re-wiring of ignitor to an r32 ignitor).

Where as this set up looks reasonably straight forward.

If you guys worked it out you should be able to draw it?

the wire diagram for the whole set up

even a rough drawing of what you did which wire to where or even get a lot more photos and then we might be able to work out whats going on in the wireing. thanks

    • Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.
    • I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.
    • Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.
    • Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
    • Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU?
