V35 Replacement Coil packs

[tehmessiah]

Hi All,

I discovered last night my misfire was due to a failed coil pack.
I've bought a replacement off of FleaBay but want to replace the full set.
What's the best Brand/set?
OEM or aftermarket?

[GTSBoy]

The stock coils on modern Nissans (and almost everything else) are excellent. We use VQ/VR coils as upgrades on RBs. Just buy stockers.

But...make sure that they are genuine. Buying shit like this from eBay is a recipe for 2nd rate 3rd factory night shift China crap.

Thanks GTSBoy,
Where is the best place to get them without having to pay massive Nissan Tax?

[GTSBoy]

There isn't really any Nissan tax. They're not that expensive at Nissan. Otherwise, there are innumerable online parts shops, such as Automotive Superstore, Sparesbox (if you're willing to deal with them), NZEFI, Goleby's, etc etc.

Efi solutions or golebys for best pricing online. 

Sparesbox and the like are useless and have cheap pricing but no stock and drop ship when available.

The genuine ones are a minimum of $95 each on amayama.
Jesse Streeter just quoted me $190 each.
I can get a set of 6 MSD for $470 on ebay.

[GTSBoy]

OK, buy MSD. You be the guinea pig.

It's not as if 6x$95 is all that much more than $470 anyway.

They're made by Hitachi.

Buy a set of Hitachi ones from RockAuto (Google Rockauto discount codes to save 5%).
