its a series 1 there's no such thing as a 1.5

it may a lil better stuff such abs etc, but its still a series 1

like others have said to confirm it just post pics of ur interior

we regard series 1.5 as a mix between series 1 and 2. series 1.5 look like a series 1, but have a few things like the ignition system of a series 2.

Front bar is either a Nismo 400R or a UAS Copy... I have the same bar (Nismo).

As others have said ..... Series 1 headlights and bonnet etc... Series 2 wing, interior and engine (coil setup). Unless the series 2 wing has been put on a S1 - pics of interior or ignitor (or lack of) will determine. Technically no such thing as a 1.5 but it's commonly referred to as such... 93 & 94 are series 1 ..... 95 is a bitser but still a S1... 96-98 are series 2

Yeah its 1.5. When I bought my car, the guy who sold it advertised it as a series II. He knocked a couple hundred off the price when I told him its in fact a series 1 lol.

Mine is a sept 95 model so it has a series II engine and airbag but the body is still a series 1 like yours.

I love your front bar btw its one of the nicer series 1 bars I've seen, its not a 400R, i think its JUN as well.

Hey guys,

This probably sounds stupid but how exactly tell the difference between a series one and series two R33 just by looking at it. And is there a difference in performance between the two?

Thanks,

Sammy.

your car is a series 1.5 mate. your headlights are not sharp as the series 2's are. thats how u can tell also :huh:

Yep that's my front bar - its extremely thick at the bottom ... you can scrape it and bump it n stuff and only the paint cracks! Its coming off to be repaired seeing the trolley jack collapsed and made all the paint crack when it hit the deck :huh: Il see if there are any other markings on it whilst its off............ Jun.. Nismo... tis all good!

Dash looks like a series 1 dash, as the hazard light's hole isnt budged out....but the body kit has a s2 rear and s1 front. :stupid:

Is the ignitor pack sitting at the back of the coilcover? If it is it would be a series 1 engine. Are the seats the S2 Kmart style or the good REAL S1 seats?

But who knows what people mix and match engines and body kits these days...

Dyno it and see what power you get and or do a 1/4 mile run... They are all the same skylines lols

I think it's a series 1.5 though.

I dont think i have seen a 95 with the low 93-94 wing, i think it is a perfect example of a 95 Gts-t Series 1 with a few bits and pieces from a series 2.

Bitsa or 1.5 whatever you wanna call it...

i actually met a guy with a 95 series 1 R33, two tone in colour, series 2 wing and series 2 interior, seats and door trims, but had an aftermarket steering wheel, i forgot to check the instrument cluster and igniter, he said he got the car like that, interesting....

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
