I've got a page bookmarked at home that shows every single change between the years on the 34s. Personally I think the series 2 is damn ugly, but some ppl seem to like it. There's no gap for a FMIC on the stock s2 it, which kind of sucks. The interior is also a bit 2-tone as well (e.g. steering wheel is white and black). So to me, the series 2 is a backwards step (although the 363Nm torque is quite nice :D)

Anyway, I'll post up the site later tonight when I get home from work.

Just adding on to what Skyline_Boy posted...

The interior of the Series 2 has alot more silver painted parts... the center consle and on the steering wheel for example. Demon Dave will be able to tell us exactly what the differences are (if he has time :D).

OK, I found that site. There's sort of a series 1.5, but there's also sort of a series 2.5, so it looks like Nissan kind of change parts whenever they felt like it.

On this site, go to

- R34 4 door laboratories

then

- R34 4 door vehicle items of information

From there you can see all the differences over the years. It's about sedans as that's what I'm after. You might be able to find a similar site about coupes, but they're not really what I'm interested in, so I never looked for them.

I should also say that I don't think the series 2 is a totally backward step, it's just that they changed some fairly major things in my eyes for the worse. I may end up getting a series 2 one day, but I'd have to change a fair bit for me to like it.

One thing I did notice though is that Nissan got quite cheap towards the end and started deleting certain parts to save the odd yen here and there e.g. no seatbelt guides in the S2, no real middle rear seatbelt, saving the 2c on paint for the engine cover and cigarette lighter writing, no lock on the glove box etc.

    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
