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

    • perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML
    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
