Ok to start i have a skyline R33 RB25det. I was installing my ground kit wires and looking at the engine. installing a few parts and I noticed that I dont have the Coil that Sit on the back top of the motor.. WTF??? and my car runs fine.. I just noticed that ! I DIDN't Remove it so, any idea why I dont have that on my motor????

PS: i looked for any unplugged or cut wires but nothing. its like it never existed.

I was looking at a few engine bay pics here and pretty much every 1 got it..here's a pic incase you dont know what i'm talking about.thanks(this is not my engine bay pic.) look @ the back top of the motor. its the ignitor black boxcheck the link

Check the code on the ECU, does it say G8 (S2 RB25)?

But Carl hit it on the nose, 9.5/10 you have a late model R33 RB25.

Ditto.

The collective IQ of this forum has been dropping like a rock lately. It is either that or none of the newbs are using the search function.

Seriously. I challenge someone to ask a question about RBs (RB30 aside) that hasn't already been answered or at least touched on in a previous thread...

And it is the ignitor or power transistor unit, not a coil. Like CarlH said, there is not one on Series 2 motors for the reasons stated above.

What type of meat suits race bread the best? I like roast beef but feel I may not be getting top performance!

You are absolutely correct. Roast Beef! LOL But I swear I read that a long time ago before racebread.com was even started. I'm off to SEARCH! See how this works boys and girls?!
