Jspec Fuel Injectors

Well, I did a search and cannot find the answer to this question.
I have a set of 4 TII fuel injectors from a JSpec motor. I did a motor swap about 3 years ago and I remember not being able to plug into the wiring harness on my 88AE.
I would like to sell these injectors, however I am not sure if they will fit anyone's wiring harness.

The injectors are pink and I believe they came form a post 87 1/2 car (high impedence)

Will these things fit anyone's TII in the US?

J-spec means junkyard motor. Yeah these need to be cleaned and flow tested before they are ran in anyones car.

Right... like the "junk" motor I got in my last TurboII that ran 13.75 @ 104.8 mph on 5.5 lbs boost, cone filter and a ghetto turbo-back exhaust. Still running today almost three years after I put it in, and sold it to another guy a year ago.

Just be careful with it and make sure it's compression tested and you can see the results, verify them yourself, and you're good.

The injectors in Japanese and US FC's are exactly the same, but vary according to year. The three types are 86-87.5 S4 (low impedance, square plug), 87.5-88 S4 (high impedance, square plug), and 89-91 S5 (high impedance, oval plug).

If they won't plug into your 88's harness, they'll be S5 injectors.

I too second the response posted above in regards to the JSpec motor being junk. I put that motor in my 10th AE over 3 years ago and it and the turbo that came with it has run great at 9psi ever since.
Actually, I wish that the injectors off of the J Spec motor did fit my harness, because I am sure that they were in better shape than the injectors from my original 130,000 mile block.

Needless to say, these injectors did not fit my harness. I want to say that the terminal was slightly different. Can anyone else enlighten me on the topic?

I would like to sell them and don't want to sell them to someone if they won't fit their car.

They are pink with a square connector. According to what I have read, they will fit an S4 harness. Maybe I didn't try to fit them on my harness hard enough. I can't remember, it has been over 3 years now.

Ah, in that case they're no S5 live I said, they're early S4 low-imp injectors.

I looked at the injectors last night. They actually have a part number that could be either the early S4 low impedence injectors or the 87.5-88 high impedence injectors (195500-1370). According to another post the early S4 injectors have that part number, but they are tan. The later S4 injectors have that number and are purple.
I am thinking that mine are faded purple (not pink). They should have fit my 88AE. I wonder why they didn't. I guess I didn't try hard enough.
Thanks for everyone's help. If anyone is interested, they will be on ebay shortly.
