I have not been able to find a resource or thread that briefly describes what small things were changed/improved from year to year for the R34.

Now this is on a presumption that things were changed from year to year. As an example a slight body tweak or something that was an option one year became standard.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I may find this information?

Cheers!

from S1 to S2, there were minor aesthetic changes to the interior trim eg: silver bit on steering wheel and gear knob, different color cluster lights and if u are one of the unlucky ones...u get the fugly S2 front bar which makes it look like a BA falcon with no room for a FMIC. S2 also comes with just slightly more torque from memory an extra 10nm.

S2 stock wheels are also in a different color...gunmetal greyish similar to the 34 GTRs, S2 NEO engine cover, the turbo letters are not painted red, interior trim in the S2s are also slightly different, some argue are of lower quality...

S2 front bar:

started reading this thread and thought 'bugger ive paid too much and got a s1' but lookin at the differences (namely the front bar) im soo glad i dont have a s2. it looks like they stole the front bar from a soarer or something.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
