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!

Hi Guys - sorry i didnt get a chance to read all these other replied til now. I just took these pics of my interior with my phone... that is why it looks so crap... lol

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....

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By sinn3r · Posted

      perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
