There are 2 Splitfire types for the R33:

SF-DIS005 RB25DET

SF-DIS008 RB25DET 6/97 onwards

The difference between the RB25DET series 1 and series 2 Splitfire coil packs are the igniters. The series 1 have separate igniters, where the series 2 are built in.

This should answer your question.

how do i tell if the SII have igniters in them? and if i put them in my SI woul dit work

The ignition system was changed with the Series II. The ignition module was no longer located on the cam covers and was instead replaced by the improved ignition coils and ECU.

I believe you will find that the ECU is different as well as the ECU puts out a positive pulse rather than a negative of the usual setup. The ECU is different to that of the Series I to compensate for the different ignition system among other things.

As for determining the physical difference between the two packs I cannot say. I would suspect that the Series II would be a bulkier item than the Series I. If you had one of each I'm sure you'd be able to tell.

Sorry man, that's the limit of my knowledge......

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
