Funny (maybe) aside - I came across a site apparently in the United Arab Emirates. "Desertcart".

Exact same coil I have that I bought on Amazon 3 years ago. Feel like we’re going down a rabbit hole here. 1.5 ohm coil per spec.

@Yarb PMing for the coil now

@Zed Head why are these so rare? there are so many of these cars out there - you'd think coils would be available...

That's not spec. There's no rabbit hole here. I'm sure it will work just fine. I'm just going by the words people write.

Just trying to help out. Hopefully he finds the coil he needs

It’s available. Not sure what you searched. “Jeggs” is the second most supplier of automotive performance products behind Summit. Hopefully they have it in stock. They do show a ship date.

you rock, thanks for this.

I also wanted to chime in about the cap/rotor. When you buy a replacement check to make sure the cap fits snug. After installing it, make sure there's no play or movement of the cap. Grab it with your hand and rotate/wiggle the cap to make sure it fits. Cheap ones will move but the good ones will fit tight. You don't want any movement of that cap.
