Okay guys, I have been converted.

I am selling my s14 (200sx) and coming around to the straight six club.

But I am unsure on the variations within the r33 range, ie GTS-t, GTS25-t, etc. I have my heart set on the series two, but I am unsure of all the differences between a Series 1 and a Series 2.

If anyone knows a website or has the knowledge in listing ALL the differences between the two series, let me know.

See you all on the streets

Must you add smart comments to every post you make tony?

Midnight Monkey: as mention do a search on the forum you will find plenty of threads.

Series 2 is definately the preferrable model to go for if you dont mine spending a little more.

Cheers

Just FYI:

The series 1 is not a lemon compared to series 2, as with Commodores and Falcons. If you can swing a series 2 for the price of a series 1 then go for it, but the differences are not all that great apart from styling. And I personally prefer the series 1 seats.

I hear plenty of people saying to steer clear of any series 1 VN or EA Falcon etc due to many faults in those cars, but there's really nothing wrong with the series 1 R33. The only thing "wrong" with it is it's missing a couple of features like passenger airbag. Many people tend to have that "series 1 is a lemon regardless" mentality though, so this can be used to pick up a bargain.

Edit: I didn't mean to sound so presumptuous. Presumption removed, but information remains.

The differences tend to be that the S2 has more features as standard.

ie. dual bags, abs, struts bars?

The appointments are slightly diff. like fittings, lights, bars. The bottom line is that there is nothing essentially different in a '93 to a '95 to a '96 (unlike say a VT or EA etc.)

      How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?

      Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.

      I just finished up a manual swap and I have a 1999 S2 AWD automatic in my garage, depending on where you are located. I'm in the the midwest of the US.

      R33 GTR N1 REO on an r32 ?

      I’ve heard it can be done, you need to redrill the holes where they bolt to the chassis and apart from that they are the same. I’ve never done it or know anyone personally that has, it’s just something I’ve heard

      If it's reading full rich prior to a misfire that gives one directional hint, if it's already reading lean, etc. If it's reading pretty cleanly stoichiometric then suddenly drops out from a misfire that suggests it's not air mass estimation that's the problem. Could be ignition, could be something more subtle. Could be the CAS has decided to start dropping out at random or the drive pin is worn leading to excessive lash and trigger errors. LTFT can tell you the same but it's slower to react and if this is a recent issue it might not have stabilized. STFT stuck in one direction vs fluctuating back and forth can be used instead but I like to read O2 voltages anyways and interpret directly. If the O2 voltages make no sense in general or are super slow to react it could also be a failing O2 sensor. There's no real error correction for failing O2 sensors in these cars.
