Back again...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction re:coild pack discussions (Know a lot more now!)

I was wondering if there is a coil pack that is compatible with a R34? If yes or no, is a second hand option worth it, is there a way to test this part for cracks?

Have only been able to find a spitfire coil pack = $895.00+del.

The other option I face is a $5 Epoxy Solution...not sure if it worth the effort if it props up again.

thanks again guys

www.nengun.com sell brand new Splitfire Ignition coils for $583 delivered.

The model number is: SF-DIS-008

The glue will work for a week or 2, it's easier just to cough up the money and be done with it. Been there, done that!

Legends, both of you!

I want to make sure that my issues is related to the Ignition coils...what issues did you guys have?

At low revs the engine 'pules' and almost splutters (Mainly at a stop)

Also, could I install these myself? Any hints will help, just don't want to replace them and turns out they are fine (All signs point to yes I think)

Cheers again!

An easy way to find if the coils are your problem is to replace them with some out of a mates car (make sure same model car and engine).

A harder way is to individually take 1 coil out, wrap it in electrical tape, put it back in and take the car for a drive. Keep doing it until the car is driving perfect again and then you'll know exactly which coil(s) are faulty.

If you know how to change your sparkplugs you know how to change the coils. All you have to do is take the center cover off, disconnect the wiring loom from each coil, remove the 2 bolts holding each coil in and swap it with the new coil.

It's about a 20-30min job in total to do everything.

mine sort of spluttered at standstill and misfired from 4-6k rpm everynow and then. I tried everything as i couldnt undertstand why it wasnt happeing all the time i thought if it was the coils it would happen all the time. i tried cleaning the afm re gappping plugs all the way down to 0.5 they were all temporary fixes. my coils finally melted. i melted 4 at the same. so all along it was my coils.

Splitfires are the way to go no more splutering missing etc.

they are very easy to change yourself. just take off the neo cover and the coil cover and remove bolts holding the coils in and swap em.

      To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear

      I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.

      No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.
