and is it a series 2?? or series 1

It's a series 1.

You can also see that it doesn't have ABS (the ABS unit usually sits at the top righthand side - looking at the pic), and it's possible that it's got aftermarket suspension as the strut tops don't look like the factory ones.

Bit hard to tell, but it looks like there's a white plastic T off of the fuel pressure reg too. Might mean there was/is a after market boost gauge.

Oh - last one (LOL), also looks like the factory boost solinoid has been taken out or has been moved.

Also it isnt a  series 1.5 front is it

So what would you rekon the RRP of this sorta car would be ??? ball park rough figure

Think it could be a series 1.5 looks almost exactly the same as my series 1.5. I think I can just make out a series 2 spoiler on the back??? Should make it a 95 series 1.5 (officially series 1 of course). I think the black around the front lights is also a sign of series 1. Seems to have cut away some of the front grill.

It looks like a 1.5 to me. Sewid's the expert on the differences between series 1 and 1.5/2 engine bays because he's compared them directly and made mental notes, maybe you could pm him and ask.

I wouldn't pay more than $20k for a realtively stock '95 model. Probably considerably less.

Btw I think it might be a Nismo grille. A friend of mine sold one awhile back and it looks pretty similar.

Yeah its hard to tell from these photos but it looks suspiciously like Series 1.5. I can only judge this by the pink plate on the AFM. Series 1 that I have seen have green plates. This could just be a batch thing though, or even a replacment afm.

Jimx what colour is your AFM's plate?

It's not series two but we all knew that.

No the factory boost solenoid is still there, it's just to the right of the power steering fluid reservoir.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
