10.65 1/4 Mile With Hoosier Drag Radial

[95GTR600]

Hey guys I came from the track now. I could manage a 10.655 sec on the 1/4 mile, making 0-60ft 1.527 sec at only 123.97mph using the 255/50r16 hoosier drag radials and 300zx 16 x 8.5 wheels.

The car was tuned at street up to 32psi of boost and runs great but then an ebay red coil packs (Australia seller) fail and we move to old oem coils but random missfire appears again on 3erd and 4th gear.

We actually have an hks twin power ignition DLi in the car... Do you think that with SPLITFIRE coil packs we could solve the problem ?

I run a HKS DLI and Splitfires...and make over 1000hp without any missfire.

What plugs are you running?

ngk v power 8 non resistor

hmmm

could maybe go a tad colder and gap them a little to see if its in the plug...ignition system 'should' be fine if its new...but the coils are cheap chinese shit so maybe your on the right track. Whack some splitfire's in it...they are a proven performer if changing the plugs and gapping them down doesn't help.

what are they gapped at now?

[95GTR600]

I will confirm tomorrow morning the exact gap.

Many thanks for the information on the red coil packs.

I will take your recommendation and buy the SPLITFIRE COIL PACKS first thing in the morning.

I wouldn't be too quick in assuming that just chucking Splitfires in will fix the problem as I have heard of a couple of other cases also where Splitfires have failed when used in conjunction with both the HKS Twin Power and other ignition amplifiers.

the sparks are gapped to 0.022 inch

the sparks are gapped to 0.022 inch

ok too large a gap is not the issue.

try a 10 heat range plug gapped to 0.8mm first then step it down to 0.6mm before buying the splitfires though.

Check your earths as well.

[95GTR600]

many thanks, I already ordered the SPLITFIRE COIL PACKS and we are going to check well spark gap and the earths as well.

is better to use resistor type spark plugs or is does not make a difference ? Which spark plug do you use on your 1000HP RB26 ?

I never try to make a burnout on the R33 GTR before. How's bad if I try to do it without any electrical device like Grid Dancer or HKS torque will that could damage the transfer box ?

I have found the resistor plugs less likely to breakdown.

I will check all the resistors plugs...thanks for the advise.

Also ensure the loom is spot on, connections are A1 (no corrosion, off pins etc)

ps great result. good to see you getting somewhere.
