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.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
