Hey Guys, I need some help. Does anyone know what differences exist between the 95 and 96 240sx? Any help would be great, thanks,

- OBDI and OBDII (though some later 95's claim they have OBDII equipment... mine doesn't :p)- 95's are the only S14 to come with a power antenna (which I like) - Those are the only two things that I know are different between those years. When they came out with the Kouki's then things changed a lot...

I'm sorry, I'm pretty new to the Nissan realm, OBDI? ODBII? Kouki's?

Thanks

Kouki s14 = 97, 98Zenkie s14 = 95, 96

OBD= on board diagnostics: the way the ecu runs the cars diagnostics. OBD2 is more strict in everyway, started to be federally mandated on all 96+ cars. Some manufacturers equipped their 95 cars with it as well though. OBD2's only real benefit is that it has a more distinct coding system to figure out problems. I'm not sure about the limp mode on them, but i don't think they really do a better job at keeping the air cleaner. Thats up to the parts you use and the way the fuel/ignition maps are worked out....

You can read more about it, jsut search around the net if you are curious. As far as I know though, those are the only differences between those years. Oh and 95's had a higher production rate as well...

if you want to get into details, the hazard light switch is colored different, 95 has a red box around it and 96 is just the emblem
