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

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
