I need Ej20G ignition coils.

My car looses all power at 4800-5000rpm and I think it's the coils.

Send me an email or contact me here.

You should consider converting to new WRX coils, you are going to have a hard time finding old-style coils that aren't already baked and flaking into little pieces. There's a very thorough write-up on the procedure on NASIOC in the pre-2002 powerplant section, I believe it's a sticky. Impreza heads are a direct bolt-on, you just need to bypass the ignitor wiring. Legacy heads are more work, but they will fit after some trimming.

Can I just keep the old ones and just use the coil pack from the wrx?
Just mix it together?

Not really... it's all in one unit, inside an injection-molded plastic casing, the coil itself is a metal frame made up of about 30 thin metal plates, rather than wires.

You DO have coil-on-plug ignition, right? Not a central coil pack on top of the motor with plug wires to the heads?

The major difference is that the WRX coils have the ignitors built in, where the old ones require a separate ignitor ( a signal amplifier), usually located on the pass. side strut tower.
They have a nice rubber connection that won't degrade like the plastic on the old ones.

It's not a difficult mod, you're just cutting the ignitor out of the circuit, and connecting the ECU igntion outputs right to the coil packs. Follow the color codes in the instructions.

What car is this in? Original motor?

I've got two complete sets, one early set for Legacy Ej20G's and one later set for WRX Ej20G's. I have peeled back the rubbers and inspected all of them and none of the tips on them are cracked.

$80 a set shipped in the lower 48 for either style. If you aren't sure what you need, post a picture of one of yours.

Another option if you need the WRX style coils (single hold down bolt) is SVX coils. The wire leads are slightly different lengths, but other than that they are the same.
