from my knowledge 45V something written on the compressor housing indicates it's an r33 or stagea turbo (same), as 16V something indicates it's an r32 turbo. as for the other number i dont think they're all that consistent...but i could be wrong

main way to tell is if you have a metal compressor wheel (makes a 'ting' when tapped) then its a series one r33, if its nylin then its a series 2.

As for r34's i think they're also nylon....not sure.

  • 5 months later...

but its got twin blade fins on the wheel..

i believe its a series2 turbo

hence it saying 45V4..

series 1 are usually 45V1 and 45V2

the only thing im unsure about is that..

i was lead to believe that the 45V4 had.. "twin blade/fin NYLON wheel"

but im unsure on that,,

hmm nah i think u'l find it's a nylon one dude. I'll put a pic of my blown series 2 turbo with single blades if you like. I bet you'll find it's the same.. If it's definitely been there forever then it's not going to be a steel one:) The steel ones are twin blade anyway.

45v3 means jack squat except which casting it came out of nothing to do with type of wheel/model of car.

    • Hello everyone. I believe I have s1 headlights but I just wanted to make sure and getting confirmation from you all. Thanks in advance for your help!
    • Crazy how good the aero bar looks compared to the stock one
    • Yes, but you will need to rewire all the things that are different. CAS, coils, etc. Yes, but there is no IAT. What? You can use anything you like. It just has to be hooked up so that it will work.     Or are you wanting to just plug and play without having to do any thinking/work?
    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
