I like the s14 's better cause theres less out the ,and the seem to hold the value better.But they should be two seater as the back seats like a esky to seat in.lol.standard skylines look tuffer but if your gona do mods the 200 is the way to go.

p.s if he gets a 200 just make sure it gets lowerd 4inch's cause there real high:lol:

There is a crap load more of the newer 200sx's around that R33 in melbourne so I wouldn't say you're going to get anything more unique. Skylines have more power, more potential for power if that's what you're after. If you want something that looks sporty and has potential then go the 200SX. Guess you have the advantage of local parts seeing as it was sold locally.

$22k for a 98 200sx seems to cheap too me.. probably got problems of some type? They seem to hover around the $30k mark.

My friend has a 98 200sx mid spec 5sp and he paid $21k its very clean and no troubles the guy owed alot of cash ,had to sell quick.yes theres more s15 200sx out there but not s14 series 2,most are series 1 with the gay front headlights.

and as for less power ,have u ever raced 1?trust me there not that slow at all.my mate can blow stock 33's and all his got is 14psi ,3inch cat back.It may not make as much kw's as a 33 but think about it ways 300kg less!

I don't know whether I said heaps less power, just potential power but really you can do anything to either... just you can probably take a gts-t further for the same price. And on figures for standard form: S14 is 0-100 in 6.9...R33 GTS-T 6.2

But no, i've never raced one - but i've seen plenty of pretty insane ones with 300kw+ r/w like in mags, etc. I look forward to giving it a try at the track though sometime in my R33 ..could have a 180sx/200sx vs Skylines day that would be pretty good fun :P

But anyway, i don't know much about the 200sx and all the in's and out's so i'll keep quiet now :bahaha: I like them, and considered getting one but i like the skylines.

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
