actually it's type M, not m-spec. m-spec is a model of the r34 gtr.

type m in the r33's basically means that it is a GTS-t. all the GTS-t's were type m except for a handful of the auto sedans which i think were type g or type x (can't remember which) and i think that was mostly due to them having a different gearbox.

the 40th anniversary bit though will give you a few extra cosmetic goodies, but nothing really to get excited over (i think mostly just the bages). i could be wrong but i think that all of the last of the 33's were 40th anniversary models (at least in the gts-t's), and weren't that much different to the rest of the S2 33's. there weren't that many changes even between the s1 and s2 when you get right down to the mechanical stuff that actually make a difference.

The 98 40th Anniversary's just had a couple of extra optional body kits i believe. GTR wing being one part, and a different front bumper. GTR styled.

Mine never had the badges, but has the stitching on the seats. Has the GTR style bumper, and GTR wing.

I got the full shebang on mine cosmetics wise. All i "missed" out on was the sunroof and A-LSD.. not that im worried :thumbsup:

(These werent 40th options btw.. just options)

The 40th anniversary Type-M was available as pictured above with a GT-R esque aero kit in a package called the Type-MR. It's very nice in the flesh. It's also badged 40th anniversary on the C-pillar and seats and is available in a special midnight purple colour as well.

I have a dealership brochure for the Type-MR lying around somewhere at home.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.

      Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
