I dont think theres much difference between s1 and s2 r34 only minor differences. Such as steering wheel, colour of the car (eg can only get bayside blue in s2), front bar, the lettering on the engine cover is not painted etc. As for the tail lights im pretty sure they are identical? Never really notice any differences....

The MOMO steering wheel is definitely not standard. Nissan never use MOMO steering wheels as standard items. Correct me if i'm wrong.

The rear lights are exactly the same too. The gearknob Might be a little different. The colour of the 3 gauges are different too i think? Is there an R34 Series 3?

Yeah, you're wrong :) - R33s came with a Momo airbag option. Very rare but I know someone on SAU has one.

Nissan Press Release

August 28, 2000

Skyline and Skyline GT-R Undergo Minor Model Change

Tokyo -- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. today announced the domestic release of the Skyline following the execution of a minor model change. The Skyline GT-R has also undergone a minor model change and will be released throughout Japan on October 30.

The current generation of the Skyline was developed around the concept of “an authentic sports sedan and coupe that abound with a sensation of stellar performance derived from a thorough pursuit of driving pleasure.” Ever since its release in May 1998, the Skyline has won resounding acclaim for its superlative handling, stability and power performance, among other outstanding attributes.

As part of this minor model change, the exterior styling was reworked especially around the front-end, including the grille and bumper, to create a more refined design. On the inside, a sporty interior ambience has been achieved largely by changing the seat cloth and by adopting aluminium sport pedals, black and silver genuine leather coverings on the steering wheel and shift lever knob, an iridium silver centre console and silver-coloured instrumentation.

In the area of performance, models fitted with the RB25DET turbo engine and the 5-speed manual transmission deliver sportier driving performance. This is partly the result of augmented power performance due to higher engine torque, which has been raised to 363 N-m (37.0 kg-m) at 3200 rpm, up from 343 N-m (35.0 kg-m) at 3200 rpm. Another contributing factor is an enhanced shift feel resulting from shorter shift lever travel and increased shifter stiffness.

Two attractive new body colours, Sparkling Silver Metallic and Dark Metal Blue Metallic, have been added to the body colour selection, and Bay Side Blue Metallic, which was previously adopted for the GT-R and some Coupe grades, is now available on all Skyline models.

post up pics of your steering wheel...I doubt its standard..AFAIK, the tail lights are the same S1 and S2.only difference is between coupe and sedan tail lights...sedan have the blinkers below the stove lights...

the steering wheel looks like a genuine nissan/momo wheel for sure, but it my be off another model nissan as reggi34dr said ''it may be off a stagea''????????

i will take a pic of the steering wheel tomorrow and post it it up so you guys can take a look at it...

what dates did s1 end, and what date did s2 start??????

what you said about the tail lights makes sense.

anyone know about the skyline embosed between the tail lights?

mine is s1 and the ''skyline'' lettering is pressed in to the bar....but i do have that huge factory nismo kit on the car....

You'll also find the series 2 has a few things missing off of it compared to series 1. For example series 2 don't have a lockable glovebox unless it's a GTR and in the rear where the seatbelts are there is no guide for the seatbelt to run along in the series 2.

my s2 has

auto headlight

6 speakers sound system

different seat trim, steering wheel with a "S" on it

compare to andrew's R34 s1

not sure if they are option or stock on S2

my 99model also had the 6 speaker set up, so it must have been an option on s1 and s2...

maxx

by auto headlight do you mean the dial on the lower right hand side of the dash that lets you turn the head lights up or down, or do you mean fully automatic? cause my 99model also has the dial to turn them up and down.

my series1 glovebox is not lockable...but it does have the rear seatbelt guides.

fully automatic with light sensor, depends on the brightness it will turn the parker or front light on itself

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
