There is such a thing as a 93 s1 with dual airbags, coz its sitting in my garage. The steering wheel (air bag) looks different to s2 and so does the passenger side air bag. They are also factory stand

Actually I read recently on an options list for 93-95 GTSt's that passenger airbag was an option. The fact that Britto's is the only one anyone's ever seen just shows how much Japanese skyline drivers

Alsd were a option and expensive too.

Type M are turbo, NA's could be optioned with this and like all options it was up to the original buyer what your car has.

Options that I know of from factory (Nismo had others as well)

Sunroof

ABS

Alsd

Front lip (S2)

Rear Pods

Side skirts

Cruise control

Fog lights (S1)

Front bar (S1) dont know if S2 had front bar option aside from nismo

Steering wheel (S1)

Air Bags (S1)

Others?????

I thought the rear pods, skirts, and front lip were the M-Spec?

My 96 s2 has the M-Spec bits, but no sunroof or ABS (optional)

Some sites list 95 (1.5's) models as series 2, and also list ANY series two as M-Spec. I thought the whole bodykit on the series2 was the M-Spec option? It probably had stiffer suspension or something too?

FAST shows my car as being a "GTS25TM1"

Curious to know if other series2's don't have the "M1" bit at the end?

it hurts...THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS an M-SPEC R33!

do you call a GTR a TGR just because its kind of similar?

it is type-m. period.

there are no 1995 series 2's...only the made up "1.5" which have the series 2 motors

Sideskirts and pods were an option, and a pretty common one.

hehe! OK! Type M it is!

So FAST says I have a gts25tm1, which i'm assuming is Type-M I, not II... which has the following options:

"Front spoiler, Rear window wiper, Anti-lock braking system, Navigation system, Ultraviolet reducing glass, Tinted windows"

I have the front spoiler, but does that include the skirts and rear pods? It seems that if you have one, you have them all?

Got wiper and UV glass (I think)

It apears to have never been there. The MDF on the rear shelf appears to be factory with no hole for where the wiper would come from. The wiper stalk also does not have the rear control on it. ????

I haven't got the rear window wiper as well as no control on the wiper stalk...it gives the car a much sleeker and cleaner appearance from side profile. Its a 97 as well.

How can you tell a type m from the normal model?

one of the easiest ways with the 33 is to pop the bonnet, look down the passengers side of the engine bay, and if there is a turbo, its a type m, if there isn't then it isn't a type m.

the 32s have bigger brakes, leather triming inside (gear boot, steering wheel, and handbrake cover)

Well aparently the turbos are different not only in the plastic compressor but it is a different designed compressor fan as well, which isn't really surprising just not mentioned.

Hi there,

I'm new to r33'S, I'm in the process of purchasing a 96 gtst.

A little off topic but Question:

"What's happened to the Cruise Control in these things? I read a spec sheet and it said that the it wasn't even an option in the S1-S2."

Is this correct? If so WTF?????? My run of the mill turbo '88 Z31 has cruise control std......................

I've noticed the bracket for the cruise control cable is there

c2nz9.jpg

but no cable etc.

Anyone have C.C on an R33 GTS?

[ http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...ic=9479&hl= a link but no real answer]

Mike.

      Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead

      Should you buy cheap Chinese tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.

      Anyone here a submersible fuel hose expert? I pulled my hanger out again for unrelated issues and noticed the hose I popped on last week has already swollen. This is Gates 27093 submersible hose. I've waiting on a response from Gates, but this surely can't be normal? This is on pump gas, not E85.  Is swelling a tad possibly normal? I've also been fighting with my power steering belt.... I've now tossed one and killed two. I just realigned my pulleys again, hoping this time it stays on. It doesn't like high rpm.

      Don't want to side track from the thread too much (don't want to upset the thread starter's run from 2007) so here's some old rusted Nissan Laurels in a parking lot in Nishinomiya, Hyogo-ken:
