Rightyo, i'm having problems with the car (see my thread in S14 technical), and I want to go through a process of elimination. I'm getting stuttering when the car is cold, which improves slightly when the car has warmed up, and really bad fuel economy, all after running on optimax. I've checked for boost leaks and there aren't any obvious ones, so my next port of call is spark plugs, coil packs and lambda sensor. I'm going to change the plugs anyway and see where that gets me, and also disconnect the lambda sensor, but has anybody local got a set of coilpacks they can possibly lend me, or even have a look at the car and see what they suggest?

if mine work, you can park next to mine and do a quick swap over?

Is it only a 5 minute job? If so, that'll be ideal :thumbs:

channies has longer studs (oooer lol) so you have to undo each end. mine goes on a billion times easier than the bent s15 hahahah:nod:
if anyone knows if the s14 coilpacks are the same as the s13 then i have a spare.:thumbs:
