The 95 model only got driver's airbag and no passenger airbag, is this correct?

I think the AFM has a sticker on it with different colour between S1 & S2. Not sure which colour is which series... I was told the coil packs are also different.

S2 turbos are different, they spool up faster.

A lot of people say the s2 turbo is not as good as s1 tubo, due to a plastic compressor wheel, but unless you intend on increasing the boost more than 10-11psi, in which case s1 & 2 turbos would have limited life, series 2 probably less life, that the plastic wheel is better. Its there for faster spool up, therefore the engine is more responsive.

Even the r34 gtt has a 'nylon' wheel. As read in speed magazine(current). So i dont see why people bag the s2 turbo. Some people say it was for cost cutting, whereas it seems logical to me that it was an improvement, that nissan spent money on.

But yeah, between a s1 n 2, get what u think looks better(interior especially...i think the s2 dash is much nicer) if u have the $$. If not, get what is cheaper, they are very similar.

The series 2's are newer of course and easier to find with options on them like ABS and dual airbags. However the 95 model released just previous to them has the same options available.

The series 2 is a slower car than the 95 by all accounts due to the later ecu map being more environmentally friendly I guess. The quickest standard cars at the moment are all 95's I think, running standard turbo's and ecu's.

If I had to get another R33 I'd get the 95 again for sure.

So ur sayin if i saw a 95 ecu for sale sumwhere cheap, it would be a good upgrade (till i shell out sumtime in the future for a powerfc)?

never knew this whole 95 1.5 series business... learn something new every day...

I dont think skylines are rare..especially in sydney. Guess it depends what your definition of rare is....try last night, george street...must have seen at least 15-20 in 1.5 hours lol.

nah siksII, although there are a lot of skylines in George ST, beware that it isnt the same person, coz last time i saw this guy in a white Series 2 skyline near hungry jacks turning. Then afta that i saw him another 3 times in a 1 to 2 hr period..

some pplz jus like to do happy laps and have $$ to waste on petrol. Or it could i was wrong and he was looking for a parking spot for 2 hrs..lol who knowz?

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
