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

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.

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

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
