85URE

Thanks mate If you are still having troubles I read that some people don't run the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th bolt as those bolt heads are right next to some of your packs and the bolt can then provide another short path to earth, or they uses a large heat shrink (with glue) that covers up the stem and also seals onto the bottom of the coil pack covering the join to the stem where they usually leak from. All that said, failing packs will get worse over time, just depends at what stage each persons packs are up to.

The cheapest way would be for people to make these themselves at a cost of $35 material and 3 hours work. Best I could do for the pair would be $115.00 - Shipped Australia wide

Well said on all counts! Sometimes when these things fail its not always at the best time for people to be able to replace them. Cheap fixs can be the difference between people getting to work so they can then afford other options.

yeah mate, under your top engine cover you will find two of these, usually made out of alloy that transfers heat and also alloys earthing issues with your coil packs.

Guess that depends on each persons situation, both financially and physically. Every coil pack breaks down over time, at this point in time my problem was the coil packs earthing out, By installing the plates, at a quarter of the cost vs new packs, it did remove my problem. also allowing better cooling for the packs as the alloy brackets transfer more heat that is responsible for destroying them.

I was having trouble with my R33 breaking down but only when I tried to run high boost (24 psi) Running at 12 psi it was smooth and faultless so I changed plugs, fuel filter and a few other things but nothing worked so I took it to Gavin wood and he said the coil packs were more than likely at fault. Rather then shelling out and purchasing another set of coils OR gaping my plugs down from 1.1mm to .6mm I did some more research and found some people in the UK were making up Acetal plates for mounting their coils too and this was solving a range of problems for people. The theory is that when your coils fail they are finding the easiest path to earth for the spark to travel OR when you are running boost over 1 bar the spark can be "blown out" basically so the simple fix is to get more powerful coils BUT If you think harder about the problem and rather than resorting to fixing a short with "more power" to make up for it, actually remove the path the short is going to take and you will find all your power will now go straight into your plug!! From the minute I started the car even driving round on 12 psi it felt so much crisper and more responsive, but the proof was being able to run 24 psi again revving clean and clear right to limiter. Acetal or Polyoxymethylene, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction and excellent dimensional stability. All you have to do is trace your alloy ones onto the Acetal plate and you can then cut them out with a jigsaw and tap the holes. I made mine in house and would consider making up a run of these should people not wish to stuff around making their own and would rather to just purchase them. Hope this gives you guys another option to try at home when trying to sort out your misfires.

Don't forget you can always use heat shrink down the "shaft" to the plug, and/OR make up a set of Acetal coil plates - can't give this mod enough praise!! I had a problem with misfiring but ONLY under full boost, 24psi, (12psi was fine) turned out my coil packs were shorting to earth so I made up some Acetal mounting plates and the miss is GONE, car has never run smoother!! I got the idea from an overseas forum where this fix was solving heaps of problems for people. I was actually thinking of making some more up If people might be interested in purchasing them?

As the topic says, Looking for anyone that has good coil packs laying around, I am only after 1 - must test between .5 and .9 ohms. thanks Mark

SOLD!!!

still available... anyone...?

SOLD!!!

SOLD!!!

nope, not a clue sorry, you'll have to do some research

I started with a genuine tommi karria front bar (WITH badge) as you see in the photo with the X - removed the centre bar - widened the mouth to take the bigger cooler - closed up the indicator holes - and decreased the size of the vent no longer needed after i did my conversion - indicators included silver in colour asking $300 located at sumner 4074 PM if interested, thanks Mark

Pretty straight forward again, no longer needed after i did my conversion, NOTE: some internal gussets have been cut to fit other hinges looking at the guard on the car you would never know. ALSO: indicator not included silver in colour asking $30 each or $50 for the pair located at sumner 4074 PM if interested, thanks Mark

Pretty straight forward, no longer needed after i did my conversion silver in colour asking $100 located at sumner 4074 PM if interested, thanks Mark

Was a great clutch, lasted about 3 years in my car till it started slipping, couldn't get rebuilt in time so i bought a new one, SO PLEASE NOTE THIS CLUTCH NEEDS TO BE REBUILT!! asking $250 located at sumner 4074 PM if interested, thanks Mark

sorry mate, but when i bought these i was told they come off 4 door S1's - and iv had them on my car for 2 years (2Dr S1) so i doubt that

Item: - Bonnet $150 - Front left guard $50 - Front right guard $50 - Headlights (chrome) $400

"some_cs_student" Nothing online, ill call them tomorow - thanks "Bakes" Yeah mate, there off "car mate" although the gold TS one is on many sites - thanks

EDIT: All sorted, thanks for your interest Hi, Iv been searching for a TS (top secret) front bar for a R34 GTR for the last 3 weeks and i am yet to find one ANYWHERE!! I have received a GTT bar when i have asked for a GTR, and then EVERY single supplier iv chased there after have claimed they carry this bar, ie: advertising them on their websites only to tell me once i call them that they have none in stock untill next year!!! Can anyone tell me ANYWHERE i can buy either the TS or the VSP front bar for a R34 GTR. ........ R34 GTR TS .................. R34 GTR VSP........ thanks Mark

I Got the same too

Any photos? Mark
