The Type S in the catalog picture is an automatic...look at the center console...the shift lever is for automatic transmission.

Relevance? If you're citing my example, re-read it.

All models of kouki 180sx (X, R, S) were available in 5MT and 4AT.

I read it. I see that the three models are offered with the A/T and M/T options...thanks for the picture.

I also can see that the Type S has the SR20DE(~140hp)...N/A? Correct?

I just found it interesting that Nissan added the Type S in the catolog as an automatic...all three could have been M/T.

Thanks Mr.Meph.

Nobody ever asked you to. It's a matter of using proper terminology to describe things. Frankly, if you wanted to move away from the 'zenki/chuuki/kouki' set of descriptors and describe things by production dates or other specific terms, I'm completely fine with it.

Yes, Type S is the nonturbo model. IIRC there was another SR20DE model called Type G, which was not standard-equipped with aero (like the Type R).

Would you happen to have a picture of the Type G?

I'm just curious, thanks.

Just curious on what kind of front bumper is on the red car in the first picture that mrmephistopheles posted up? It does not appear to look like the other two or maybe it is, hard to tell from a side shot like that.
