Just jap have jjr's for like $400 with warranty lots off people have them and i havent seen any complaints vs 700 for splitfires.

I also saw a while ago Yellow jackets which are apparently good aswell and around $400 too i think. there was a group buy through performance wise too.

but im still on stick r33 s2 coils so i couldnt reccomend any but when my time comes ill probably end up with the ones from just jap unless the exhange rate is real good.

cheers rich

Hey guys,

Just a quick question about upgrade coilpack choice. I had some aftermarket ones as the stock ones were no good, not naming brands but they have turned out pretty bad and the company making them have offered a full refund or credit towards splitfires.

The engine is an RB25DET S2 from an R33. The only issue with the splitfires is the cost.. I shoudn't complain I got what I paid for last time but I was wondering do any other brands make a good coilpack for this engine at a cheaper cost e.g bosch and the like. Do they fit right up like the splitfires do?

If splitfire is the way to go, where is the cheapest place to get them from? My car isnt going anywhere until this issue is fixed.

Thanks for ur help guys.

Liam

Just Jap r the ones I actually had in and didn't want to name. They have offered a full refund or $399 credit towards splitfires. They also said the S2 R33 coils r off the market due to too many issues and returns.

I hope this doesn't give Just Jap a bad name, it is just one product that hasn't turned out. I think it's good that they tried to make a product that is almost half the price of the "leading" brand so to speak. It seems to me from what I hear that it's only S2 RB25DET coilpacks that have been taken off the market.

I have heard very little of the Yellow Jackets so probably not keen on spending my money there. Looks like I'm getting splitfires if they are going to be the best solution.

Thanks

Liam

Go the Yellow Jackets. They are excellent. Ive had a set in my GTST for almost 1 year now and they have been faultless.

They come with 12 month warranty. Delivery was very swift from Performance wise and they are an excellent price for under $400

Ive heard lots of bad stories about the red JJR an superspark type so Id steer clear of them.

Heres a thread on SAU where people are comparing them - CLICK HERE

Seems to me that the Yellow Jackets are the winners here.

    • Rear doors central locking wiring removed and cleaned. See the first 8sec video of when it’s filled with river silt. its a snip of what I’m up against. front and rear doors complete now. Maybe another day removing carpet and bits and pieces. Then the re assembly begins. 🤙 att.DqweJqhY5MZiZYQDVMhn3LtvdD1RBZ7TBG4f2s7W1zM.mp4 att.lFuN22MZEowqCbFAXoDw009r2gHL76ChMVfxMfBX-uk.mp4
    • There aren't boost creep issues, it's not engineered around the restriction of the cats but if you haven't tuned the engine a full decat + exhaust can flow enough air to run off the end of the OEM load scales and you will get a pretty substantial reduction in ignition timing as a result. I recommend using DFCO, avoiding ignition cut limiters, and avoiding popcorn tunes along with running a cat unless you enjoy a perpetually soot-covered and potentially burnt bumper.
    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
