R33 Gtr Series 1, 2 And 3... What Are The Differences?

[BlackR32]

Hi guys,

As the title says, I am looking to buy a 33GTR, I was under the impression that the series 3 has different headlights to the 1 and 2... sort of more like the series 2 of the gtst... is this the case? or am I loosing my mind.

Also what are the other differences between the series 1,2 and 3 on the R33 GTR?

Thanks for any help.

Off the top of my head..

S3 has Xeon headlights (some may have S1 headlights as some complaince places didnt replace them)

S3 has rear fog lights

S3 has a red stitched interior

ABS unit is different

Front bar has N1 slots and a different lip spoiler

Do a search im sure there is a lot more then this.

Cheers

also the series 3 has better gearbox ( somthing to do with the syncro's)

They are the main differences, and also the lower lip.

Heres a few pics of my series 3 that i took when i put it up for sale.

Hopefully this will help you tell the difference between the series 3 and the earlier R33 GTR's

Its where the reverse light is on the S1/S2 R33's, its just slightly orange...and bright when you turn it on

If you can't tell the difference what makes you want a series 3 so bad?

All the differences I know are listed above.

I've got a series 3 for sale if you want one. hehe

Just keen to have the later model thats all, and I THOUGHT there was a difference in the shape ofthe headlights like there is with the S1 and S2 gtst

thanks for all the info guys!

To me, its only the projectors that made series 3 standout from the earlier ones but you can always get aftermarket ones or even DIY like one guy who did it on SAU. To an untrained person like myself, its like looking at 34gtr and 34gtr vspec. The only thing you can tell are the diffusers, sticker and vspec fins on the diff.

Are you referring to the Xenon headlights? The genuine ones do cost serious $$$
