Ok technically they are a series 1.5 1995 model. The series 1.5 had a series II rear (colour coded SKYLINE garnish and spoiler update) with a slightly updated front bumper and grill. Drivers airbag was standard on them and the passenger airbag was optional.

However i still class it as a series 1 since it has series 1 headlights (or in the case of the photo i posted it has series III GTR headlights, which as we all know are the same shape as series 1 headlights) and had a series 1 engine. Series II were 1996-1997 and had a normal series II empty grill, not the one above.

Can't say for sure with such a small picture, but there is a S2 specific grill like that. As Liquid ice said its not as common as the standard series 2 grill, but its not the same as the one PM-R33 posted, as that is rounded on the edges to suit the series 1.

I'll post some photos of the series 2 version when I'm on my PC

Thanks for the replies guys, but it seems divided on what it is.

A little more info might have helped in the first place. Its gun metal grey which I don't believe the series 2 came out in, but I pulled the grill of my series 1.5 and tried this one and it didn't seem to fit.

Perhaps a better picture will help.

So what year models are those Series II's? Are they a factory grill or something aftermarket?

They where factory from what i understand and must of been an option on all series 2's from 96-98.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
