Not true.

And I am sure you are talking about the series 1.5 front bar.

Yeah that bar did come standard on the 1.5 but i'm pretty sure it was an option on the '94 range of series 1's marketed as the "m-spec front bar"

Although i could have been told evil evil lies!!!

Cheers

I have the R33 Series II factory broacher and price list and the model names are not as simple at they appear.

The turbo coupe versions are:

GTS 25 T Type M (This is the one with the V-Spec active diff and cost 3,567,000 yen)

GTS 25 T Type M Spec II

GTS 25 T Type M Spec I

As I cannot read Japanese I do not understand what the difference is between the Spec II and Spec I models – they even cost the same 3,007,000 yen.

1.5 bar is what you have in your avatar. have a look at pre 95 models to see the original series 1 bar which isnt that nice to look at.

Yeah I know what the series one bar looks like... i don't think you read my post properly..anyway..

Just to make things a little clearer too there was no factory series 1.5 its just somthing that was applyed to late model series 1 33 gtst's that had some series 2 parts fitted from factory due to the change over from series 1 to 2 (lack of series 1 parts im guessing)

old post but here goes, Series 1 is Zenki which means a new model change from R32 and Series 2 is Kouki which means the same old model but beefed up to get them to sell better as it's 1/2 way to it's next new model which is R34. This was what i was told by a Japanese friend. R34 came out in 1999 and R33 was still in production til 1998. To be able to sell the remaining R33 which was produced by Nissan, they had to make a new facelip and new body style (kouki) to actually make people buy them. Even the interors were different from the S1 versions. Engines are same except that the igniter was built in on S2 and external on S1.

^^^^ s2 r33 was in production for 2+ years they didn't do it to move the last of the production run :) they didn't paint stripes on it and call it a cobra, it's also not whats called an s.v.p (special value pack).

It's a facelift model like a falcon bf mk2 ect.

M-spec have airbags

The M stands for Mummy

The r34 had an N-spec with 2 handbags

The N stands for Nana..

If you could read Japanese you'd know this already :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
