Gtr R33 Series Differences

GTR r33 series differences what are they just intrested and what years did they change

i know the ser2 gtr had the hid headlights and the differnt colour carbon and red interiour but was that it and what did the ser3 have over this?

[depalma-bcnr33]

correct me if im wrong but i thought that only the series 3 had HID. also, i think there is some difference with the oil drive collar between early and late 33gtr's. series 1 had a flat dash surround (which is shit and peels), as series 2 and 3 have an embossed dash surround where it sort of 'bulges'.

thats all i can think of atm

cheers

only series 3 had the red stiched interior and the xenon headlights.

Wow that sux! Yeah never seen that on a GTR, unless it was only on the series III's?? Definetely looks factory though.

[Travis Trayhern]

yeh i got no idea but if anyone can help would be good and also when i was after some parts one of the guys at nissan reconed it was the 30th anniversary model or something anf had the v spec front bar which was std on my model but its not a v spec.

Just peeked under my '98 to be sure but thems all stock braces - sorry.

And by the way your exhaust installer is a right butcher - that's ugly

my series 1 gtr had this , its not a series thing or a vspec thing . it seems to be a factory option . atleast it looks very factory and clearly not standard equipment on any r33 gtr variant

best thing about the series III gtr , 1 red fog light on the back instead 1 of the reverse lights . some compliancers may have had to remove this though on the ones in australia

love that fog light!

That foglight is a new one to me. never new about that. You learn something new everyday lol. Sounds like the 34gtr setup. Hey, anyone got pics of this fog light. Would love to see it.

It goes where the reverse light goes but its light red until you turn it on.

You get a lot of "you've only got 1 reverse light working" when reversing, lol.
