Okay guys, I have been converted.

I am selling my s14 (200sx) and coming around to the straight six club.

But I am unsure on the variations within the r33 range, ie GTS-t, GTS25-t, etc. I have my heart set on the series two, but I am unsure of all the differences between a Series 1 and a Series 2.

If anyone knows a website or has the knowledge in listing ALL the differences between the two series, let me know.

See you all on the streets

Must you add smart comments to every post you make tony?

Midnight Monkey: as mention do a search on the forum you will find plenty of threads.

Series 2 is definately the preferrable model to go for if you dont mine spending a little more.

Cheers

Just FYI:

The series 1 is not a lemon compared to series 2, as with Commodores and Falcons. If you can swing a series 2 for the price of a series 1 then go for it, but the differences are not all that great apart from styling. And I personally prefer the series 1 seats.

I hear plenty of people saying to steer clear of any series 1 VN or EA Falcon etc due to many faults in those cars, but there's really nothing wrong with the series 1 R33. The only thing "wrong" with it is it's missing a couple of features like passenger airbag. Many people tend to have that "series 1 is a lemon regardless" mentality though, so this can be used to pick up a bargain.

Edit: I didn't mean to sound so presumptuous. Presumption removed, but information remains.

The differences tend to be that the S2 has more features as standard.

ie. dual bags, abs, struts bars?

The appointments are slightly diff. like fittings, lights, bars. The bottom line is that there is nothing essentially different in a '93 to a '95 to a '96 (unlike say a VT or EA etc.)

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
