This pic pretty much explains it. The 200sx hatch (sold as a 240sx in the states and 180sx) is based on the S13 platform. Took me sometime to understand it aswell ;)
thanks, so they don’t have any differencies in the engine?
To my knowledge, the S13 was powered by a 2.4 naturally aspirated engine known as KA24DE (240SX) and 1.8 Turbo known as CA18DET (180SX in Japan and 200SX in Europe). The S14 came as a 240SX with a 2.4 engine, which I think was twincam, not too many in Europe. The S14 200SX also had the famous SR20DET, a 2.0 Turbo. The SR20DET came in two versions - black top in S14 Zenki and Kouki and red top in the newer S15. Hope I got my facts right.
I know this is a bit late, but it goes like this:
s13(silvia): ca18de/t, ps13(silvia):sr20de/t, rs13(hatchback):ca18de/t, rps13(hatchback): sr20de/t, hs13(240sx hatchback): ka24e, ms13(240sx hatchback):ka24de. Then s14, in the us models: ka24de, pretty much all others:sr20det. S15, sr20de/t.
Plus, there are 3 kinds of SR20: redtop which came in ps13 and rps13 91-93. S13 Blacktop 93-98. Then the newer notchtop blacktop, s14 and s15.
In Australia, the S14 is the Japanese import of the car. But the 200x is the Australian delivered version of the s15 silvia.
