Hey guys, just need a second opinion before i waste some money,

i own a R33 GTS-T with a RB25DET, i was driving to a mates place and all of a sudden my car started to sound like a WRX, i had a new set of plugs at home which i got and i though start with the easy fix and changed the spark plugs and nothing changed still sound like crap, so i checked all vacuum pipes and intercooler piping and nothing has come off, so decide to see which cylinder is missing, i tried all of them and found out when i unplug the number 6 coil nothing changed.....so does this mean its my coil???? car still has power and the wrx sound is constand then the car works ok for like 30 seconds and then back to the wrx sound.....so does this mean its the coil???????

HI

to see if it is your coil pack

try borrowing a known working one and replace your number six one and if the car runs fine it will confirm that its your coil pack.

you could also check that coilpack for cracks in the rubber and tape it up and see if that improves it..

Swap it with another cylinder and if that piston doesnt fire then its the coil pack

any of these will confirm a dead coilpack..

hope that helps

check that the coil/wire harness connections are actually touching..... i had same thing and all it was was a douche didnt connect the plugs properly....

then throw in a working one and see if it works..... i dont know how to do it but ive read on here that people repair coils all the time..... im not sure but search that aswell

      C-red tuning?

      Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
