Z31 Ignition Coil[edit]

The Z31 Ignition Coil is a high output ignition coil comparable to many performance coils. Replacing your Coil with an aftermarket coil will not increase any performance in your Z.

WARNING - Do this modification at your own risk. We Are not responsable for any issues of your own doing.

Testing the Ignition Coil[edit]

You can test your ignition coil by checking the resistance between the primary and secondary windings. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance across the terminals as shown below.

Terminals Expected Resistance
1 – 2 1 Ω
1 – 3 10k Ω

Note: If your coil readings are outside these ranges, the coil is internally bad and should be replaced.

Wiring the Ignition Coil[edit]

Please Refer to the chart below on how the ignition coil is wired

Terminal Function
Terminal 1 Coil Ground
Terminal 2 Coil 12V+
Terminal 3 Coil Output to Distributor
