Well, having never seen a SMIC from a series 2 I can't say fer sure, but the R34 one has a bit of a weird shaped upside down tee shaped shroud. I will take a pic of it tonight after work and post it up for you if that will help.

I am in the process of fitting this to a S1 and while the R34 shroud is going to be easier to modify than the S1 std shroud, it doesn't fit behind a std S1 front bar and still needs to be chopped down to fit. It doesn't, however, need the same levels of mods as shown by the all knowing and all seeing SK in his VERY helpful tutorial covered in the DIY section.

r34 intercooler and shroud will fit on the s1, you will need to reuse the top right hand intercooler mount as the r34 ones wont fit

and putting the plastic undercarriage guard back is a real bitch coz the r34 intercooler sits like 1.75 inches below the stock s1 cooler.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
