just like to add here peeps (mainly for others WHEN you hit this problem ) i am rebuilding a 93 "S1" GTST. and came across the dreaded coolant filling the passanger carpet area..!! THE BLOODY HEATER CORE..!!

removing the "heater core" is fairly simple...and ordered another one.....(did not fit ..? )....then other one....(did not fit..? )

I HAVE since found out there ARE 2 SIZES in regard to the heater cores in a R33 SKYLINE..? I cannot tell you IF the "S2' runs the thicker (35MM thick unit ) ...over the/ my (25MM thick unit ! ) the core / size IS the same....just the thickness of the 2 units..?

and obviously they are NOT interchangeable..? it pays IF you have to buy another one :::: ask / tell the seller to check thickness of unit..?

in my case I needed the "thinner" 25mm core...most were 35mm thick..?

those that want to know ::::

S2 front bumper onto a S1 nose....do-able ! (note:: must have the same REO BAR ) ie::: S2 bumper onto a S1 car using S1 REO will NOT FIT !! as stated here....headlights WILL stick "forward" off the S2 bumper as will the grill. unless ALL S2.

(also if you have "fogs" in your S1 bar. and are fitting an S2 bar. make sure you have the small wiring loom off the S2 fogs..? you WILL have to change the "connector plugs" from S2...to....S1 so they work in your S1 CAR..! )

gauge cluster interchangeable..!!

dash cluster surround face interchangeable !! sharing IS caring....LOL...all the best....

are the series 2 gtst rear seats the same as the gtr?

Same in what way? None of them have the same upholstery / stitching but after owning 3 x R33's myself (incl GTR's) I reckon they'd all be interchangeable.

not sure avout gtr seats (might have to measure up) but sedan Back seats r wider by about 2" and the mounting hooks are in different spots

Does a series 2 gts grille fit on a series 1 gtst?

No. While I've never tested this, as has been already said the bonnet is different, but so are the headlights. You could pick up an OEM series 2 grille for bugger all if you wanted to test.

I'm looking at guy in a nismo grille all I can get from the seller is its off an ecr33 gts don't know what that even is but mines a series 1 gtst

Gts and gtst are interchangable. GTRs aside all s1 are swapable with all s1 amd all s2 are swappable with s2.
S2 may bolt onto an s1 buy wont look right as the s2 bonnet hangs lower. S1 amd s2 headlights are different but i think its mostly along the top edge BUT they may be different on the side where it meets the grill.
Youll need to find out if the gts is a s1 or s2

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
