Hello,

Just wondering if the ignition coilpacks are the same between the Supra 2JZ-GTE and the Aristo 2JZ-GTE WITH VVTi.

Can anybody confirm?

Looking to get some preventative maintenance done, so would like to replace these too.

Thanks,

Mitul.

Yes I believe they are the same - bought mine with new plugs and the two breather pipes from Toyota Dealer and they were invoiced and boxed as genuine Toyota spares.

You can get them mail order from www.toyotalexusspecialists.co.uk

Hey gramps,

I hope you're well buddy - how's the car? Not seen you post in a while now.

Thanks for that information ... I'll get mine sent over real soon

The car was serviced and put away for the winter, so I may have a potter around in it now it's better weather.

Only did a few hundred miles in it last year, so I may be looking for a good home for her shortly. At my age I guess I'm starting to perfer the 4x4 for comfort and pushing all the grandkids clutter in rather than the performance of the Aristo !!

WOW - Really sorry to hear that...hope you don't get rid of her though!!

It's a toss up between keeping the Aristo and sneaking out to do a spot of tinkering in the garage or buying a potting shed !! Decisions, decisions.

ARISTO!!! You know you want to keep her - but then it all depends on your hobby haha.

If I was closer I'd bring mine around everytime I wanted something put in for you to tinker around.

How did you get on with the handsfree installation?

I didn't install the hands free kit - it is still in the box next to my computer !!!!! I don't like cutting and splicing wires - it always looks like a bodge job. I'm still trying to find some matching plugs and sockets, new or from a scrap yard, but as yet no joy.

You could solder all the wires on and then heatshrink it all so they look as close to stock as possible?

Yes - I've got all the wiring information sorted. Just got some glue-filled heat shrink sleeving and got a new soldering iron (rather than using my welding kit and blow torch). Just need some spare time now to do the job.

Excellent - you better keep the car now! Would hate to see another fellow Aristo member sell his car.
