i just answered your question in your other thread about std 33 coils. besides there have been many threads on this topic before. just use the search function..its your friend :P

infromation is there in the search functions, read it all, its stupidlly conflicting, several people say s2 has built in igniter and several people say s1 has built in igniter, no definitive answer, without looking from memory s2 has built in igniter, I think the r34 has built in aswell,

can anyone confirm diff between 33 s1 and s2 and r34, can u see the built in igniter,

what? clearly series 1's and 1.5's have one main ignition module. this goes for all earlier models on skyline e.g r32 rb26's.

from series 2, the igniters were built in. i dont think theres any series 1's with built in igniters.Im pretty sure there are none,unless theyre modified in some way?

actually series 1.5 generally have the s2 engines so will have the ignitor built into the coils. at least that is my experience with the s1.5 i had and all the other ones i have seen.

but it is extremely easy to tell whether the car has an external ignitor or not. look for a square unit at the back of the engine bay on the rocker cover with a plug on each side. if it has it then it takes s1 coils. if it has a plug but no box it takes s2 coils.

Yes my 1.5 (1995) has the series 2 running gear. To my knowledge all of them do, and I'm guessing only the earliest of them...if any...will have series 1 running gear.

As mad said, check towards the back of the spark plug cover...if there's a black box on there then you have series 1, if there's no black box there then you have series 2. Simple. Search the forum for pictures of said ignitor.

strange cause my missus has series 2 coils on her 94 line but i have series 1 coils on my 94.

hers has the mounting point for the main igniter but instead its just the plugs joined with no igniter. know what i mean? lol.

so is there any way of just plug and play with the diff coils?

there are possible reasons for a 94 model having s2 coils. it may have had an engine transplant, it may be a very late model 94 and just got the s2 engine, etc.

you may possibly be able to install s2 coils onto a s1 if you swap the whole ignition loom. not sure if the plugs at the back (where the ignitor usually is) are the same though

everyone says to search pics of series 1 and 2 coilpacks lol but i cant find none i need to know which one my car has in it lol all i know the car has ecr r33 on the compliance plate what does that mean? lol i dont say what month it was made in either lol any ideas/help?

not the best of pics but the coilpack cover (where it says 2500 NISSAN on top of motor) has a lil box on the back. in the pic its just above the BOV. If you zoom in its got a plug either side.

That one is the series 1 coilpack with an external ignitor.

Series 2 doesnt have this box as each coil has a built in ignitor.

ok deff no little black box there hmm soo what does this mean? series 2 motor?

yer the coil pack are different 100 %! i changed mine yesterday

Look at the top of the motor and see if you got that little black box there. can i ask why are you changing them- miss fire?

make sure that you are sure its a coil pack before u spend too much cash on the wrong thing :P

let me know if you need a hand with it, cause i just went through it all and i'm not sure if it might be the leads too, but it has stopped missing.

There are quick diy fixes to the coils, refer to the sticky. Probably do that first, to make sure that its the actual coil

the colour of the sticker on the AFM

Are S2 AFM's pink label? Coz i got a 93 S1 and i got a pink label afm. does that make a difference to the readings, performance etc.?

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
