Best place to get new coilpacks?

Hi everyone. I see a lot of options for coilpacks, some cheap, some definitely not so cheap (Nissan).

Who has bought aftermarket coilpacks and what are their recommendations/experiences with ones sold on ebay etc.

Does anyone make any performance aftermarket coilpacks?

Cheers

I would stay with Nissan. You can find used coil packs in the classified (someone had 6 off of a 4th gen as of yesterday). Or consider replacing them by bank or even individually, if money's tight. I've found on my 99 that the rear 3 are more prone to failure (the 3 closest to the firewall). According to DaveB, the coil packs he sells new do not have the problems that were found in many of the 99s when they first came out. Often times you can isolate a single coil pack that causes the misfire just by removing one at a time while the engine is idling.

I've bought 2 from autopartswarehouse.com and haven't had any problems with them. Don't trust the e-bay ones, got 3 bad in a row.

rockauto.com for new, otherwise a salvage yard is always a cheap bet!

Honestly? anywhere but ebay. So far the ones from Clark auto and Kragen/Shucks/Oriely work great.
