Nice bukaki mr grape.
Good luck with it.

I do, however, know of the bukaki model...it does get pretty messy...

They do have a common issue where the oil and coolant mix, creating a while creamy mixture that has a tendency to just explode all over the place at random times of the day.

POST OF THE YEAR!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA wow...awesome...

Those are Japanese terms that essentially translate into early and late model. Somebody else could tell you more specifically what they mean. If you were to apply that to our cars, the then 94-95 would be the Zenki, before there were minor changes made to the front bumper and spoiler. Kouki would be the facelift model, the 96+.

heres some info on Silvia's it may also help
and heres some for the second gen 240

The second generation of the 240SX can be divided into two distinct variants, Zenki and Kouki:

From 1995 to 1996 the 240SX S14b(b = before) is commonly referred to as Zenki (meaning "early period" in Japanese). The base model had 4 lug 15-inch wheels, a softer suspension, no rear sway bar, and no remote trunk opening lever. SE and LE models came equipped with 16-inch, 5-lug alloy wheels, a stiffer suspension versus the base model, and a rear sway bar. The LE was an upgraded SE model, and was equipped with leather seats, keyless entry, an antitheft system, and a CD player. Antilock brakes and a viscous limited-slip differential came as an optional package to the SE model. JDM and USDM models both had headlights with plastic lenses while the European versions had glass lenses (which are preferrred as they do no turn yellow with age like the plastic units).
S14 "Kouki"

From 1997 to 1998 the 240SX S14a is commonly referred to as Kouki/kōki (後期, lit. latter period). Changes over the 1995-96 models are primariliy related to updated bodywork including aggressive projector headlights; a new front bumper, hood, and fenders; and revised taillights and center panel. Side skirts became standard on the SE and LE trim level. 1998 marked the end of production for the Nissan 240SX, with no further variations of the S platform released in America.

actually 94-96 is zenki and 97-98 is kouki
Koukis in USA are very rare, especially the 98 LE....unmolested and with drift tax they go for 2x kbb.
so far ive changed all the fluids, and now planning the kouki front end conversion..will update later,

time for a RB25 or 26
