Gtr Blew The Coil Pack, Coilpack Wiring Harness &

[iwantagtr]

G'day

I have just bought a R32 GTR it has been sitting in the shed for a couple of months whilst I get a few small things fixed up for rego. I have been starting it and taking it for a quick blat up the road every couple of weeks. The battery in the car is dead so I have been jumpstaring it to get it started. Today I rolled the car down my driveway (slight hill) in reverse and dropped the clutch. The car backfired and it didn't start, I noticed a clicking noise coming from a black box near my abs unit (I have never heard this box click b4 in my life) So i turned the ignition off, then back on and the clicking went away.

I tried to jump it like I ususally do and It would backfire every 6 th revolution of the crank (I think). Then I put another battery in the car (which I know is good) and all It would do was backfire and want to start but it never did. I notice smoke coming from the 4th coil pack so i quickly turned the car off and disconnected the coilpack. One side of the coilpack had blown out and it was F*king hot as.

The car has 1/4 of a tank of fuel, refueled 2 weeks ago

It is getting fuel to the fuel rail

The compression of the car is within specs as I did that 2 weeks ago

It was getting spark to the front two coilpacks didn't check the other 4 as the 4th one shit its self.

Has anybody got any ideas as to what has happened to my car?

i would say you flooded the motor, take your spark plugs out and see if their is fuel in there

Possibly the Clicking noise Near your abs is one of your relays are stuffed that is in the black box attached to the ABS pump?? I have a problem with my ABS at the moment and the Red light in the Boot flashes saying it a ABS motor relay so i go out and replace the Relays (Expensive from Nissan so find one on here if ya can!!) and the Light still illuminates on the dash so got me F3cked on what it is!!! And when the turbo timer is running there is some constant clicking noise like a solenoid or some crap clickin but only does it when the turbo timer is running not with the key in the ignition!!!!!

With your other Problem i'm not sure what it is! Maybe try some new coils!

Thanku both styline gtr and aliturko. Please keep the helpful tips coming.

If you tried to clutch start it there is a possibility that the timing belt may have jumped teeth.

Silly Q: but you used a surge protector when jumping yeah?

Fried ECU coulda cooked a coil.

Hey, I still can't start the car I fried my ecu. I put another ecu in today but she still won't start. I have borrowed a coilpack and bought another wirring harness. I am going to replace all the coilpacks and I hope that fixes the problem because if not I am going to have to take it into an auto elect so they can have a look at it. Is it possible for a timig belt to jump a tooth, doing a clutch start? PLEASE ANYBODY GOT ANY IDEAS.

Hey, I still can't start the car. What I have done so far, I have replaced the

-coilpacks with super spark coilpacks

-spark plugs

-wiring ilum to the coilpacks

-brand new battery

-new battery terminals

-2nd hand computer.

I have also tried putting my crank angle sensor from my series 1 r33 and the ignition module onto my GTR. With no luck. Today I tried to retrieve fault codes from the computer but i kept getting code 55 which means every thing is fine. Obviously every thing is not fine. PLEASE CAN ANYBODY HELP

[ylwgtr2]

dude.....your guessing.....do you have spark at all plugs?check by unbolting the coils and stick plugs in them and watch them work....

do you have injector pulse???Check with a noid light....spark fuel air and bang bang it goes...theres no science behind it

Hi I feel like an idiot. I put my car on a trailer and took it to my local tuner, he found the problem it was my battery. I had put three different working batteries (tested each battery) and they couldn't start my car. Thanks for all those people who helped out.
