the easiest way to tell is by looking at the rear where the skyline word is on .. on a series 1 its same colour as the signal and reverse lights .. but in the series 2, its same colour as the body .. if you look inside a series 2 .. it has 2 airbags .. when the series 1 doesnt have any ...

the differences are twin airbags, front bar with foglights, bonnet, interior trim is a lot better looking, better rear wing, switch for electric aerial, slightly different dash and the centre piece between the reverse lights are painted body colour. Overall they are a much better looking car:thumbsup: :)

Joe,,,you had a good day today buddy....

Thats not Totally true,,,My S2 has the white or clear "Skyline" wording type centre beaver trim.

Mines Factory Fitted and is Illuminated......

So is the fact that I have no ABS(Thank God),no side skirts,,,but do have the Cool S2 front bar, extra lip with functioning fog lamps(also factory Fitted),,,dual air bags,,,factory fitted Remote central locking,,,I'm the 2nd owner. 1st owner optioned what he wanted,,,, Should I stop now,,,,.

R33 S2's could have just about any option the buyer wanted. I even have a switch in my centre console called "Light Reduce". Got no idea what it does,,,,I forget to get my mate in Japan to ask that question,,,,.

No difference, people keep saying there is a difference. there is no plastic, the part numbers are the same through nissan. how can it be. anyone else want to clarify

fark know why they didnt bloody make it ball bearing for frigs sake.

anyways, dood, please search the WA forum for this question i think we clocked 4 pages or 5 or something stupid like that. all the info you could ever require to answer this is in there.

g'day Joe, havin a nice day there are ya

RiaZ

do not quote me on this

but

S1 = Ceramic Inlet Wheel on turbo

S2= Plastic Inlet wheel on turbo

this has been said many many many many times before

and i have this funny feeling if not me but sumone will say it again

in sum other post

I also think the S1 looks better when it's kitted up. IMO the S1 and S2 stock kits both look like shit and should be immediately replaced by aftermarket ones. I prefer the GTR style headlights on the S1 too.

BTW my skyline word at the back is red, but I think the guy must have painted it or replaced it as mine is a 93 and there's no way that is one of the hybrid S1/S2 cars that they made in 95.

so when does your neon  light turn on? is it when you turn on your lights or do you have a switch?

Sir R33,,,,No switch,,,it lights up when parkers or headlamps are on.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
