What are the best coils for a 1998 Nissan Maxima GLE

 

 

Hansin or Mitsubishi. Most of us go to a wrecking yard and collect used coil packs. They are about a third of the cost of new ones and you can get OEM ones that way for cheap.

 

Denso or Hitachi from Rock Auto. They are the actual OE coils

 

I've gotten about 30k out of Autozone coils so far, but that is definitely a mixed bag... Hard to tell exactly what you're getting. I'm a sucker for convenience tho and I've replaced them one by one.

Odds are, the closer you stick to OEM the fewer problems you'll have in the long run. I'm just here to say that even my mediocre Autozone coils are working, though the Hitachi or Denso brands will probably give you a longer lifespan.

 

I just had a Hitachi coil pack die on me after 2 yeards and 30K miles. replace it also with Autozone one (the lifetime warranty bought me).
I am not sure about the rest of the Hitachi ones i got - one already have a broken boot.
