Ignitors / Ignition Modules

[widebody180]

So my R32 GTR has a misfire I can't shake. I'm quite sure it's the ignitor, as everything else in the ignition department has been swapped for brand new. I did replace the ignitor but only with a second hand item. While it is better than the original, this one is still giving me grief. So no more second handers.

I can't get a response from my local Nissan dealer on how much a brand new one costs. I don't think I want to know. In fact do they even make them anymore? Apparently the Bosch 0 227 100 203 can be wired in with no dramas. Only problem is that I would need 2 as they are 3 cylinder models. They cost about $350 each from supercheap auto and $650 each from repco. Quite pricey.

Option 2 is a TP100 ignitor. I can get them for about $100 from Repco, and apparently they can be used in the GTR. The guy who has done this runs 6 of them though, so it is still going to be quite expensive. I can't find much information about these ignitors and I'm not sure if they can in fact run more than 1 cylinder each.

Is there any other options? Ignitors are really quite basic, no way we should be paying over $600 for one.

http://www.rhdjapan.com/nissan-oem-ignitor-24232 Looking at $700+ for a new genuine one from there.

The part number is: 22020-05U00

So keep trying local Nissan dealerships quoting above, might be able to get it cheaper (especially if you know someone who can get trade prices)

Yeah I actually found that about 10 minutes ago. That is still a ridiculous price though for what it is. Anyone tried an alternative?

Could always convert to HKS Twin Power, just an idea.

I'll keep it in mind. If it was the choice between that and a replacement stock unit, I'd take the Twin Power.

Just waiting to hear back from a NZ guy who is running a Tridon ignition module. Trying to find out which model.

I got a price from nissan for my 33 gtst one a while back, there were 2 types one was just over $1000 the other was just under $1000.

search the forum, there was a guy from nz that had an alternative, around $185 IIRC

I found the Bosch units for less than a fifth of the local price, delivered from the US. Ordering them ASAP. Fingers crossed no more misfire.
