Coil Pack Swap

[CEF33Y]

Hey

Ive been having some problems with my coil packs, and have a mate with some r32 splitfires.

Now i know they have different plugs to the cef ones (same as ca18 and red top rb).

What i want to know is there any actual differnece in the coil packs apart from the plug. i.e. can i get a hold of a r32 coil pack loom and use the r32 coils.

I've compared igniter units they seem to be the same (from the outside anyway haha)

any ideas?

You will find that the plug going to the ignitor is different from to cefiro to R32........therefore you would either need to change the plug on the R32 loom to your current ceffy one........OR, save the money for the loom and simply hard wire all the coil packs in.

The only difference between Ceffy and R32 packs is that on one the pins are vertical, and the other is horizontal.......just nissans' way of messing with us lol.

It will take you a while, but i suggest you get some insulated connectors and then smash the plugs on your current loom and then attach the connectors to the packs........I have done this and it works great.

It saves you the cost of buying a loom that you would need to chop up anyway in order to change the plug going to the ignitor.

This also allows you to chop and change between different coil packs as you wish, eg: if an R32 pack fails you can simply unplug the connectors and fit one of your ceffy packs as the direction of the pins is no longer of any consequence as each pin has a seperate plug.

Sorry if this seems a little long winded......i just want you to see the benefits of this.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me with exactly what you need to know and i am more than happy to help.

Cheers
