Hi Guys,

We are about to launch Yellow Jackets Coil packs for the V35 and V36 models and we have just about finished testing them for production.

Traditionally, before I release them to the market, I like to get a few random SAU'ers on board to give my coils some "real-life" testing and I will need testers for each type.

Please post or PM me if you'd be interested. There's a free set of coils in it for any one who can help out. :)

:cheers:

I don't mind chucking some on my car for you. ATM its a turbo'd VQ35de.

If you really want to give them hell, we can get a few M35 Stagea owners out there to try them- running upto 25psi, and higher under bonnet temps cause of the turbo too. VQ25det are the same coils afaik.

I have a stock 2005 350gt 6MT that is my daily, and does around 200km of city driving a week. If that suits your test requirements, I am happy to test.

Same body but different part number, they probably run a higher coil output voltage as I have never found the limits of the stock VQ25det coils.

I could in a few weeks. The issue is, they won't represent how these will work in most peoples VQ engines as I run much colder plugs, 5 times the cylinder pressure and e85.

Btw Alex, the VQ25dd awd gearbox I was having rebuilt has different (weaker) internals, I have to get mine rebuilt as it won't handle the power. More clutches = more boost. :)

Its called extreme product testing :P

Talk about never ending gearbox story.... I didn't even know you had a DD gearbox. Auto for drags, manual for track = WIN!

Ideally, I want to give these coils a hard time to see what they can handle.

Well if you are happy to throw a set this way I can test them at 30psi in a few weeks. :)

My car doesnt see a hell of a lot of action during the week but is driven hard almost every weekend to make up for it. Would be happy to give them a try if you like. How long would the test run for?

Here's another V36 owner who is happy to give them a go. I have a tendency to thrash the car often (which is why I insist on servicing the car myself every 5000km) so I hope I can be considered one of the extreme testers, for a naturally aspirated vehicle.

Thanks guys. I'll send some PMs out shortly.

Im kind of new to the V series skylines. Can any one confirm for me what other cars/engines are interchangeable with the V35 coil packs and also the V36 coil packs?

Thanks in advance.

V36 (2008-) and Z34 (370Z) use the same VQ37VHR engine although I believe the V36 sedans didn't get this engine until the 2009 model. Otherwise, up until then the V36 sedans got the V35 engine.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By V35_Paul · Posted

      careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?

      OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
