Anyone know my an Rb25 would be putting out on idle?



My money is on one of these :- coils, plugs or leads. Try taking each of the plugs out and inspect them they should all look same on ends. If u want take a pic of each 1 and send to me if your unsure what your looking at.

Your engine has leads?

Also plugs only show last condition before removal.

Ie- if the engine was belted then shutoff at full noise for inspection, vs belted then cruised to a convenient place for inspection will look very different. Most ppl look at them after the car idled for a period of time therefore true readings get masked


So... What's the question?


His car has a very rough idle atm, at 1st I thought it was his cold start but only has a standard ecu, so then was thinking vac leak? He sent me a video of how it sounds and its really rough so my thoughts were what I mentiond above and yeah did mean coil packs.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
