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

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
