It was the early s13 (pop-up headlight) model that came with the 1.8 turbo engine, they blow up for fun.

All s14 and s14a come with the fairly bombproof 2.0 turbo engine.

Jap imports are pritty much the same car tbh, sod all differences tbh.

Think the main problem with the RS for me was that it had to be full comp due to its value, where as my 200sx is only tpft, dont see the point in fully comp insurance at my age on a car worth less than 5k.
