well turns out, as many of you had said, that the coil packs are stuffed, i hadnt retried them with the new plugs yet, but while ive been waiting for the plugs i showed my coils to my mechanic and he quickly identified what was wrong with them....on one side of the coil there is a clear plastic resin that insulates the wires, well in that resin you can see black burn marks where its shorted out,,,i saw the marks before but never relised they werent supose to be like that because all 6 coils have these marks!!!! i cant believe my car even started!!

cant wait to drive the car once i get the new coils and plugs in

Wow all six where out haha, thats crazy...car should be so much better when you get that all fixed up!!

yeah for sure, cant wait, im considering gettting these coils, http://www.redlineperformance.co.nz/?actio...∂=26090 anyone know what brand they are? as the split fires are almost 1000 bucks :P

a mate of mine just got yellow jacket coils for his 33 gts-t and has found them good. they only cost him a bit over $300

yeah i was interrested in thoes yelow jackets too but the retail guys say they are still in testing for the NEO :P

turns out that the red ones in the pic are the coils for a r32, lol but all they could tell me was they are all black casing and get them from the same place in tiawan where they make the splitfires and they have a 12 month warrenty under the store,

but im pretty impressed with the factory ones even tho they all blew, cos after all they are 12 years old!

    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
