theres a thread by someone that the is a hairline crack on the coil, if you tape that up it will stop the 5000 poping / boost cutting feeling.

also in that thread, someone argued that the power fc or was it a safc will resolve that problem too.

dont know if its true or not, so i will have a look at the coils this weekend and tape it, cause mine pops alot and cant keep up with the boys

i was looking at pricing an alot of place's are like $1000 then checked nengun and they are $580 deliverd... wow there killing it.

[Duncan]

were the $1000 prices in Aus for immediately available? Because the Nengun price may require 15% duty + 10% GST making it $750, and could take a couple of weeks sea freight. I guess people are often willing to pay more to get them sooner

Sounds like the stock coils are pretty weak.

Nope - just many years old and been through lots of heat cycles (ambient to maybe 80C). Given these conditions, I think that they survive pretty well!

After messing around with buying used coils, I went for the Splitfires to get rid of the missing once and for all. New coils from Nissan are actually more than the Splitfires.

what boost are you guys running my car is popping at 10 psi, will the coils fix it or do i need after market computer?

[Sinista32]

Im Running 12psi - suffering the same problem both in my GTS-T and GTR both 93's. You could go a bosch external coil pack like I did on the GTS-T prior to selling. I then sufferd a problem with the Ignitor. I beleive 10-12 years and thats enough, time to replace.

Correct on the age and also having them down the centre of the valley there is continuos heat in addition covered over by the plate. You will see alot of Skylines with the cover removed. Only problem removing is water/moister sitting.

Very interested in the Splitfire. Perhaps a group buy from Nengun and we could get a heap at a more affordable price.

[nizmokid]

has anyone bought a set from Nengun on the web?

how hard are these to install?

[Robo's]

There a drop in replacement from the standard ones.

[brett33]

I had the same chronic missing problem too. Siliconed the bottom half of every coil pack. Problem solved. Saved a K.

[Robo's]

Where do you silicon, between the rubber boot and the base??

I need to do something with mine and if this is a short cut, i will try it

[KamikazeR33]

unfortunately these wont work on a series 2 r33 without a few modifications as the splitfires dont have an ignitor pack in them

[nizmokid]

they also make them for the series 2 I was told?

[Duncan]

sure there are just 2 different part numbers

how difficult are these to install?

I'm a newby, best left to the pro's?

[JAPCAB]

Mate they are PISS easy. All u need is an allen key to undo the 8 allen bolts on the black nissan cover on the top of the engine. Remove the intake piping by undoing the hose clamps. Take off the black cover, then unclip each harness from the coil packs. Undo another few bolts, and the 2 coil pack assemblies come off.
