can series 1.5 have just a drive air bag and no passenger?

edit : mines a 95 and when i got it came with a s2 wing, s2 floor mats, s1 rear garnish, s1 front bar and lights

Most S1.5 only have a drivers air bag, S2 got driver and passenger, judging by the year and all the S2 i think there is a good chance it is a S1.5, maybe even a S2.

Do you have an igniter on the coil pack cover up the back, S2 dont have one.

Hey,

Pretty sure most S1.5 has only drivers airbag, can't remember when I last see S1.5 with dual airbags, You might need S1.5 airbag steering wheel to pass RWC.

Hope it helps.

*edit* Brett, aka W0rp3D beat me into it.

if you can fit the s1 steering wheel and the Airbag light is your only problem, you need to find the wires which used to plug into the airbag. Then you just need to buy a resistor from dicksmith or something and just solder it on or plug it into the plug. this should trick the system into thinking that the airbag is still there and should work fine.

sorry i can't help with what the resistance is supposed to be, i'm sure someone on here would have done something like this.

heres a couple of pictures, see the plug thing on the yellow circle, it just doesnt fit through the slot of the wheel slot, and even if it did the plugs at the other end of the wire dont plug into each other.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
