Hey well my car stalled on the weekend and didnt want to start. Ran consult diagnositcs and it came up with "ignition fault" or something like that. Before it seemed to be revvin all over the place. It was in neutral and still revs were jumpin from 400 - 1100 on idle and then it stalled and did not want to start again

I have checked coil packs and they seem ok and even if 1 coil pack went im sure the car would still start jus sound like a WRX

Cant be spark plugs as they r only 3000km old after the rebuild

So im guessin its the ignition module.

Its for an R33 GTST Series 1, which other model cars will fit on my car eg will 32 GTR fit, etc ??? Is there a way to check if its the ignition module eg run a current through it or something ???

Any help would be appreicated thanx

Cant be certain but I expect an ignition module off a an RB26 will only be fit for purpose on an RB26 eng.

The R33 GTST will only suit the same engine/ignition module.

I priced a new one recently for $670 from Nissan. With second hand you will get what you pay for.

But before you go paying cash use the process of elimination sourcing the loan of parts from freinds.

The guys on here could probably give you a step by step elimination list.

Yeh tried to get ones off mates and no luck, most hav got S2 R33's. So i bit the bullet and got a 2nd ignition module for $120. Engine still wont start usin a multimeter we discovered that my old ignition module had the same resistance as the new one i bought. So now im under the impression that the ECU has fried itself. Stoopid auto ecu. But yeh gotta find one and test it out
