Hi guys & girls

My twin power ignition just died recently. I than bought the twin power unit without the harness thinking it was my unit that fried. However, when my new unit has arrived a few days ago and plugged up and I still get the miss fire. This makes me thinking the harness itself.

Does anyone know where I can source a HKS twin power harness for r33 gtst - part number 4399-SN004?

Thanks

Sinista32 - have already spoken to the supplier and i was told it has been discontinued. :unsure:

Kitto - The coils are fine as i have been running it now with 0.5mm gap to be able to run at high boost. with the twin power i'm actually running with 1mm gap and it's fine untill the twin power not firing at high boost.

GTSBoy - the harness itself also have circiut boards, to each plug.

My experience with this silly gold box. It cost me two sets of coils. Brand new OEM ones and splitfires. Bought another set, ditched the gold pretty box and the OEM ignitor (R33 GTR) and ran an aftermarket one and bingo. All good.

Paul - I'm running the splitfire now but with 0.5mm gap with no problem if running 0.6mm i will get miss fire. With the hks i can run 1mm gap with no problem. Well i will give up if it die on me again. Now i have 2 twin power with problem harness. The harness to operating but when running more boost it won't work. It acts like stock harness.

Thanks

it's not the sparkplug because it is firing normal at 27psi with 0.5mm gap stock harness. have already changed 2 sets of plugs previously. Definately the HKS twin power harness.

Does anyone know where i can get the harness fix?

Thanks

    • Those 2 solenoids in that assembly I mention, are the PWM solenoids for torque converter lock-up clutch & EPC (line pressure control) ~ when most folks hear of 'solenoid failure', the tendency is to think electrical failure...but fact of the matter is, especially wrt the EPC solenoid (which is moving/running all the time), you can have an electrically 'good' solenoid, that's absolutely broken/worn out mechanically inside...ie; valve plunger return spring rubbing against spring retainer plate, lowering preload pressure.. ...and the solenoid armature extension limit spring wafer with bad wear/broken off petals... ...and if there's ever been any metal flying about, damage to the valve plunger end itself... ...the stuff one never really sees, unless you go the whole 10yards trying to answer the question "why is my line pressure screwy, but TCU isn't flagging any EPC solenoid fault?"...and carefully dissect the solenoid. Worst (and most probable) scenario is when the plate spring petals break off, they get held by the magnetic flux, get mashed up by the armature into little bits, which end up in the space between the armature & shading core bore, and things get stuck or randomly jam up, and your line pressure goes flat and doesn't change...and the TCU never sees it, as it doesn't actively monitor LP... ..then it gets into insidious land, if you end up with lower than expected line pressure...lets say high clutch..and the lower pressure causes it to slip ~ when I say 'slip', think say 2000rpm on the drive plates, and 1800rpm on the driven plates, because the slip is making them under-rotate by 200rpm ; you get all the usual nasties like heat and band/clutch wear, but even if it's only 20rpm slip the same thing happens...and... you'll hardly ever pick this up driving the thing with the torque converter active as it effectively masks these sorts of slippages that are line pressure related ...(the newer TCUs can detect clutch slip rate)...just  FYI as it were...
