Trying to find a S2 with leather but without woodgrain interior... had a scary thought: did all S2 stageas with leather come out with woodgrain? Am I gonna be stuck with it??? :laugh:

Edit:

----------

OK so I have learnt much since I posted this :D This was mainly thanks to the posts below... to summarise my findings (series 2 only, don't know about series 1): there was a leather option, which was leather seats & centre console lid thing. Then there was the Prime Edition, which had leather seats/centre console lid, PLUS woodgrain trim... and this it appears was the most common option where leather was concerned because it wasn't much more for the prime edition then the leather. But the silver/grey interior trim pieces are exchangeable with the woodgrain pieces, as is the wheel.

Damn... doesn't sound good :D

ステージア a non-prime edition? Are the ones with leather all 'prime edition'? What's that?

Hmm I wonder what the chances of finding someone to trade with would be... is there anybody out there with a S2 and the black interior who actually would want woodgrain that much? Oh, just realised... would still be stuck with a half-wooden steering wheel :laugh: oh well. Thanks guys

Will keep you in mind mike; seeing the pics of the silver interior they're not too bad. Would prefer black but I think they're still better than woodgrain (for me). I'll let you know how it pans out...

a) paint it (the woodgrain, that is)

b) find a normal RS4 that has been optioned with the leather seats

c) source a S1 leather interior

They are out there, its just with the factory option of leather not that much cheaper than the prime ed, it wouldn't make much sense to go down that path.

The prime editions are easy to pick out because they had woodgrain on the wheel

there are heaps of leather S1's out there with leather seats and no woodgrain. Just gotta find em

mine is a RS-V prime edition, full leather no woodgrain looks the bomb too, ill get some pics up soon

Hey Joe (where you goin with that gun in your hand)

Unless I am mistook your car isn't a Prime edition, as Prime editions are all 4wd...

yours is a 2wd type B, leather wasn't standard in type b's, so yours must be an optioned one.

If you want a spread sheet with all the option/standard equip. PM me your email, and I'll send it on.

It's not easy to decipher it all, but it it interesting just the same.

AFAIK All Prime edition's came with leather and wood....(plastic)

I Lurve my wood (plastic) ok so it's only plastic.... and no I can't afford a car with real wood, so what, nuffin wrong with that..... :)

Thanks for the pics joe26f! THAT's what I'm after - looks awesome! I love the all black look... Tangles: I wouldn't mind the woodgrain all that much, but why did they have to put it on the steering wheel... that spoils it a bit for me. I don't think i'm desperate enough to paint it (erk) I don't think i'd make a very good job of painting plastic. Sourcing a standard interior, that sounds better. Where might I find some standard black plastic bits - besides yahoo.co.jp?

Slightly mistook indeed

The prime edition did come in 2 & 4wd and in turbo & non turbo forms & only in the RS series (as opposed to the X & G Series).

You are correct the primes came with wood grain as standard but it probably could be deleted when ordering...

If you have/had xenon lights, auto lights & super fine hard coat paint (check your back window for the SFHC sticker), then you could have a prime ed (the list goes on if anyone cares)

The type B is actually a 2 or 4wd turbo in manual or auto that was built "Pure for Customize"[sic] which came with steel wheels, no stereo, ready for the owner to make their own additions (see picture. sorry, no scanner)

Joe if yours has a factory LSD then it may be an S Pack.. does it also have fog lamps and heated windscreen/wing mirrors?

Any q's just ask.. I have detailed files...

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
