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.

      This is the part I was unprepared for. I mean, thinking about it now, the first day I collected my car from the importer someone posted a photo of it on the highway to an online JDM page which my friend then sent me. I drove straight to the office to pick up some things and was immediately swarmed by about ten college kids -  "how much power" "why no wing" etc. The next couple times I went out I didn't really notice anything, there was a "why no wing" at a service area at some point. Then during the fourth time out driving at the Nurburgring I got the "do a drift" - the bastard cut it out in this clip. The title in itself is a red flag. As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of the attention. This leads me to wondering what to do with the car in the future; I'll see how this year goes and it may be garaged, which it mostly is already, or maybe even sent back to Japan  to also be garaged and driven occasionally on visits. Fortunately my daily is as interesting as drying paint.

      Has this been converted to manual by any chance?

      I couldn't get this to work right, New clean IACV, coolant seems to flow and solenoid functions, but again as soon as I plug it in the idle raises, I ran the car for a good 1/2 hour messing around with various things it, no vac leaks. At one point with the IACV plugged in I was able with the adjustment in the side of IACV turned all the way in get it idle down a little to around 1000, but no lower, and it would surge, I unplugged the IACV engine rpms drop to about 350, turned the adjustment about 3 turns in , set idle to around 800 rpms' and it idles smooth. I set the idle stop screw abut the same so it cant drop below under load. the engine starts, restarts, with no load or with a load seems to run fine. I will have to leave it like this for now as I cant get it to function correctly with the IACV plugged in. One other thing I discovered that might be the reason for some of the issues, the engine in the car is a RB25det neo from a Stagea along with the Stagea ECU. so alot of wiring, plumbing etc that is typically there in a R34 is not.

      R33 GTR front knuckles not lining up

      By LZY33R · Posted

      Hi all, Trying to seek some assistance with my issue. I'm currently doing a complete overhaul of my suspension / driveline, on my r33 gtr and have completed stripped down the front assembly. I had purchased a new pair of front knuckles (the painted silver ones in the pictured) They were advertised by the shop aswell as other retailers online to be compatible with the entire 4wd R chassis, however when trying to fit the new pair, they don't line up with the ball joints (from the lower control arm) and the steering tie rod.  The other knuckle pictured is what came off the car, everything fits up to it perfectly, however I've been unable to figure what variant they are from originally.
