cant say i have had much luck with superspark's. my first set started missing about a week into use. then got another set on warrenty and there also starting to miss after a few months of use. had to re gape the plugs to make it not splutter under boost.

Well even though both are good, the owner of Superspark has a reputation for honouring his warranty; whereas Splitfire is reluctant to do so.

Looms need to still be in good condition in case some questions arise.

i don't care about how much they are, i just want something that will just work, and keep working, ive had so many problems with coilpacks im up to my 3ed set so i just want something good.

Insufficient info...

Are your looms flexible as they should be?

Does your car use an ignitor?

Over how may kms and under what sort of load is your car going through?

how flexible does the loom have to be? i don't think mines flexible at all

i have an ignitor

she has done 114541 ks

and my car just goes through everyday driving for now.

What coilpacks are in your car now? If you are simply replacing 15 year old Nissan coilpacks with second hand 15 year old Nissan coilpacks then obviously you will still have problems.

Brand new Nissan coilpacks are the best you can get however quite dear. Hence why every one goes Splitfire coilpacks. Everything else made in Taiwan or China is obviously not going to be as good quality. Hence the price being so much cheaper.

If you are still having missfire problems even on brand new coilpacks then the issue lies elsewhere.

sorry to dig up an old post, going through missfire problems saw this post liked the cheapfix.

Question, would you bother to go one step further and remove spark plugs tape over thread/seat surface and EURTHANE SEAL COAT the spark tubes and surrounding end to end of the head.

    • A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.
    • Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.   
    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
