Rotarywerks D585 PnP Coil upgrade
|
Why go with something unproven and take the risk? If you want an ignition kit go with the proven BHR kit. Black Halo Racing
If not just get quality OEM coils from mazmart.com or aftermarket replacements from a parts store with a warranty. |
im running these, love them. easy install and really is PnP. very happy with the purchase.
edit: many MI8 Crew members are running these as well. lets see if they chime in |
I've had mine for more than a year, love it, and great prize!
|
Any idea what the harness looks like? Other than that, it should do the job.

I deleted the off topic conversation once RotaryWerks saw it. It should be back on track now, which is the OP's request for pros/cons about the kit.

Gentlemen.....Vendors need to keep it clean like everyone else....

You are "Mr. I know everything about rx8s", then you should know how simple all the kits are and they all work the same. If you wanna spent $500 then fine. But just by buying the coils the rest is simple to do. It really is not a big deal like you make it seem.
What am I making a big deal about? If you think all the kits are the same then you need to educate yourself. That is like saying the aftermarket Ebay OEM style coils are the same as the OEM Mazda Version C coils. Not to mention that the skill and materials that went into making the wiring harness matters as well. I am not saying the rotarywerks kit sucks, I am just saying its reliability is unknown so the kit could be a quality kit or it could be crap. The bracket alone screams Ebay RX-8 ignition kit to me. Either way it's my opinion and what the OP is asking for. |
Its also missing the extra coil ground.

It's hard to see, but it is the black wire beneath the second connector in the picture. I'd assume they're all bent from each 4 pin connector and terminated at a single ring connector.

That looks like it is off of the wire. It looks like the 4th pin on the coil has no wire. Rotary werx can you post a better pic?

Rotary Werks, you are dancing awefully close to the "advertising your product" violation line. Please refrain from posting in this thread.
The OP is soliciting comments from other members, not from the product vendor. You have customers with it, including ones in this thread. Let them refute or clarify any misconceptions. It probably rankles a bit that BHR is in the thread, as they have a direct product competing with this, but they are a paying vendor and have the right to promote their product here, as well as point out the differences. If you re-subscribe as a vendor, you will be permitted to do so as well. |

I have no idea what happened in here since i last chimed in, this whole thread seems to be a mess. Let me comment a few things if i may to hopefully clear things up (even though i dont know what questions are up in the air with this mess)
1) each coil has its respective ground wire that meet together to a ring ground terminal that you can bolt to the engine. I cannot get a clear picture of this as its currently on my car. essentially looks like the following with the 0 being the grounding terminal and c being each coil. ---0 ---/\ -/\-/\ c-c-c-c 2) the bracket is metal and powder coated. |

Just take a look at the lacking details in the Rotarywerks ignition "system";
1) The necessary spark plug wires are not included and they need a special terminal for use with an genuine D-585 application. 2) The conversion harness does not appear to have any kind of insulation or tubing over the wires, thus increasing the chances of chafing, abrasion, and short-circuits. 3) Even the promotional pictures are unprofessionally staged. Is THIS the kind of detail work for which people want to pay even a mere $350? Are these guys willing or able to provide warranty coverage in the event of coil failure? Does Rotarywerks specialize in the RX-8 and do they have the experience with the platform to help with other issues often associated with failed OEM coils? RX-7s and RX-8s are vastly different platforms. Just some things for people to consider when deciding where to spend their money. To answer your questions. Yes he owns a shop, he does legit work and builds on rx7, rx8's and basically anything with a rotary engine. He could be consider the go to tuner here in Miami for rotarys. Has done plenty rx8s mine including. |
