Hey,

I have managed to locate some yellow jackets which are being sold second hand. Problem is the seller does not know whether they are S1 or S2? Does anyone know what to look for to tell the difference?

I noticed that my original coils have a tab on each side midway on the plug. The Yellows have one higher up. Does this help?

Cheers and thanks so much in advance,

L

Assuming these are pics of the actual coil packs. It looks like the S1 has the black mounting bracket all the way around. and the S2 does not.

Yep, series 2 have built in igniters so they only have the mounting bracket on the ends, not all the way around.

Thanks guys. Does anyone know if original R33GTST S2 coils also have 2 mounting brackets or do they have 4? I'm now confused as to which one mine is as I thought is was S1 but could be S2. Made in 04/95 with Type M kit.

You can tell if you have series 1 or series 2 by looking at the back of the rocker cover. If you have a black box on top of the cover with wires coming out of it, you have a series 1. If you don't have this black box, you have a series 2. Chances are if you car is 1995 it will be a series 1.5 which uses series 2 engine and therefore coilpacks.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
