Back again...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction re:coild pack discussions (Know a lot more now!)

I was wondering if there is a coil pack that is compatible with a R34? If yes or no, is a second hand option worth it, is there a way to test this part for cracks?

Have only been able to find a spitfire coil pack = $895.00+del.

The other option I face is a $5 Epoxy Solution...not sure if it worth the effort if it props up again.

thanks again guys

www.nengun.com sell brand new Splitfire Ignition coils for $583 delivered.

The model number is: SF-DIS-008

The glue will work for a week or 2, it's easier just to cough up the money and be done with it. Been there, done that!

Legends, both of you!

I want to make sure that my issues is related to the Ignition coils...what issues did you guys have?

At low revs the engine 'pules' and almost splutters (Mainly at a stop)

Also, could I install these myself? Any hints will help, just don't want to replace them and turns out they are fine (All signs point to yes I think)

Cheers again!

An easy way to find if the coils are your problem is to replace them with some out of a mates car (make sure same model car and engine).

A harder way is to individually take 1 coil out, wrap it in electrical tape, put it back in and take the car for a drive. Keep doing it until the car is driving perfect again and then you'll know exactly which coil(s) are faulty.

If you know how to change your sparkplugs you know how to change the coils. All you have to do is take the center cover off, disconnect the wiring loom from each coil, remove the 2 bolts holding each coil in and swap it with the new coil.

It's about a 20-30min job in total to do everything.

mine sort of spluttered at standstill and misfired from 4-6k rpm everynow and then. I tried everything as i couldnt undertstand why it wasnt happeing all the time i thought if it was the coils it would happen all the time. i tried cleaning the afm re gappping plugs all the way down to 0.5 they were all temporary fixes. my coils finally melted. i melted 4 at the same. so all along it was my coils.

Splitfires are the way to go no more splutering missing etc.

they are very easy to change yourself. just take off the neo cover and the coil cover and remove bolts holding the coils in and swap em.

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
