I own a 85 gs and im putting in my friends N/A 13b motor. I have almost everything done and the car is about to start. Im just confused on where to install the new coils. I am using second gen coils on the car and I was just wondering where everyone else mounts them. I was thinking about putting them on the driver side strut tower but im not sure. The car is eventually going to be turbo'd so i want to keep the passenger side a little bit open. Any ideas where I should install them? Also pictures would help a lot too. Thanks guys!

 

I would recommend placing them in the area where the stock coils are now. Will tuck them out of the way, as well as keep them closer to the battery and distributor. You might have to modify/fabricate a mount fo them to do this.

 

As of right now I have the battery in the stock location. So it might be in the way a little bit. But I definitely want to relocate the battery to one of the bins soon. So maybe I could put it somewhere in that area.

 

I wouldnt plan on mounting the coils in the bin....you dont want your coil to plug/and distributor wires that long. They need to be closer to your distributor.

 

Sorry that last post didn't make much sense. I ment to say I will probably relocate the battery to the bin. The coils can go in the stock battery locations. In the engine bay.
