not that I know of.

hi,

because i need a new engine and i don't know if my engine is a s1 or s2. its a 95 model and i have been told it is a series 1.5. i jsut came back from the mechanics and

they have taken the head out and i need some help.. It doesnt have airbags..

Also there is NO 1.5. Its either a series 1 or 2. When I worked in a Jap parts shop we always had people saying they had a 1.5 and the Jap manager always said "whats a 1.5?, there isn't one"

Its just a series 1 running a s2 engine during the series change over, they never called it a 1.5.

Sorry to babble on this but it always p*ssed me off when people said it.

saying s1.5 is the easiest way to clarify things. yes it is techincally a series 1, but when it is running a s2 engine, wing and a few other minor differences, it can be vital for noobs to say that they have a s1.5 at times. for example if they say that they need new coils and want to know what part number they need for splitfires. if they simply say that they have a series 1 then they will get told the wrong information.

yes, s1 has a green sticker on the AFM from memory

Correct.

Shut up. There is also Series 2.5 Technically.

This.

What if you went to Nissan and said you had a 1.5? They wouldnt know what your on about.

Well they can get f**ked because i wouldn't want coil packs for a Series 1 would i? nor AFM?

so i have a series 2 engine.. just didn't want to buy the wrong engine.

thanx

Sounds like it. But i was under the impression all S1.5 had Airbags. hmm.

None the less, if it doesnt utilize a standalone Ignitor and has a Pink AFM i daresay its a Series 2 engine.

S1 has the ignitor on the rear of the engine S2 does not.

you should be able to determine what you have by the plugs anyway.

also there is a S3 version of it as well. mechanically not a lot changes - electrically though its different,

slippy,

whilst I agree with you I too reference them by 1,1.5,2,3 as it is easier to talk to the customer with those numbers, when talking to nissan though I reference by chassis number and model. its easier when dealing with O/seas suppliers to give correct info than to half ass it.

I consider it to be Series 2.5 and not 3 as like you said it only has minor changes. As a series 2 engine and some series 2 bits made a series 1 a 1.5, a few changes to a series 2 engine should signify Series 2.5.
