i used to own a type S. all i could see that was diffrent as far as i no. Is you get a LSD and a rear window wiper. i no theres more to them but thats the main things i think. I noticed mine was a type S when i first picked it up, and started driving along..... pulled up at a set of lights, took off hard all the way to the rev limy in 1st and than snaped 2nd and dumped it, And weeeeee the ass end steped right out and cracked back just as quick.

I liked that car hehe

Cheers

- Extra 10 hp 200hp vs 190hp

- Uses 0.6L/100 more 10.2 vs 9.6 per 100kms freeway driving

- LSD as standard, (LSD is an option on non type s)

- 40kg heavier than non type s

- Rear wiper standard (option on non type s)

my NA has the rear wiper and had the variable flap thingo in the rear muff too......if its a type s there sure as hell isnt anything else on the car anywhere else that says its a type s lol.

You can check your chassis number. If its non turbo and starts with E-ECR33 then you have a type S. If its E-ER33 then you have a standard R33 non turbo.

along with the already mentioned differences is the type s has hicas and a rear sway bar, where the non type s don't, also the badges on the front guard are different colours, type-S has the red GT badges where's the non type S has blue.

Mine's a type S but its got blue badges......

I thought red badge = turbo, blue badge = NA?

yea mine has the type s chassis number and the red GT badges. i always thought the previous owner just put the red GT badges on there haha.

im pretty sure that your previous owner put those red badges on, as red = turbo and blue = NA.

cheers

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
