hey guys.... just wanna ask you if it is alryt to put a stock ignition coils and put a mazdatrix wires? coz i have to replace my ingnition coils and wires.... does it matter to match different wires with stock coils? thanks... really new so i don't really have any idea....... thanks.. haha!! :mdrmed:
If you attach the popular HKS-twin power ignition amplifier then the increased primary voltage that results in a vastly higher secondary (output) voltage means greater current flow through the coils & additional heat. heat that the tiny coils have trouble dissapating. Remote mounting, heat sinking, ducted air across them & that may get some reliability from them. REgards |
Autozone must have "magic" coils. They want 88.95 EACH!...and yes...I emailed them to confirm that was "each" and not for all 4.

Hi, I bought RX-8 two months back and the CEL light was on display. Since I live in Pakistan there are no mazda dealers here and because there are few mazda's here I didn't had any choice and I had to take it to one and only garage.
The guy over there said that two coils are not working (coil B & D) so I chaged them. After a week I went to the track and later on that day I discovered that its showing CEL light again. I went to the garage and again two other coils were burnt but this time (coil A & C). I replaced them too and now i had all four new coils. I've done only like 150 miles on them and yesterday it showed the CEL light again and I am quite sure that its the same coil issue. I don't know what is wrong with the coil or is it some electrical problem with my car which is causing my coils to burn again and again I'm using N3H1-18-100B coil and I have 03 RX-8 I've already spent like 650 $ only on coils.....please help :( |
How the heck can you spend 650USD on coils? they are like $40 each!
|
i've bought 2 coils from UK for like 105 pounds each and 2 coils from my country for 150$ and coils are very expensive when u buy it from a mazda dealer
|
Ummm have you read the start of this thread about ordering from online mazda parts?
|
any need to clean off the plate under the coils?

I told them "you better put a gun in my head if you want to assault me". So I took my car back and now looking for doing myself. So any suggestion will be appreciate. |

The Series-II (08-10) had a minor solution where Mazda made a track along the plate to create an air gap allowing the circulating air to run down the plate & assist in cooling. Either method reaps the same results. The cooler the coils, the longer they last. REgards |
