M-Spec are in R33 too,

i had one myself. 1996 models onwards, as far as i know it was mainly the front lip, side skirts and rear bar which was different. Also newer interior etc but that was more to the fact it was a series 2 upgrade as opposed to M-Spec.

r33 gts-t are type M, not M spec. it's just that 90% of people don't know this so just refer to them as M spec.

as for what it means, it means jack all in the r33 range. pretty much every gts-t r33 is a type M, except for a rare 4 door auto gts-t which is a type G or something like that.

in the r32 gts-t the type M meant bigger brakes and leather gear boot and handbrake boot, or something like that. but even then, most of them were type M as well.

pretty sure that more comes down to the options chosen. front and rear bars don't mean much as they can easily be replaced. my type M didn't have the more aggressive front bar on it because it had been damaged and it had just had the non turbo front bar put on it.

M-Spec refers to the R34 GTR M-Spec / M-Spec Nur.

Never heard of a M-Spec in the R33 range, as far as I know.

LOL sorry but this is wrong. M (Motorsport) Spec was released on r32, r33 and r34 single turbo skylines. My R32 is M Spec :D 33s and 34s changed it slightly to Type M.

my bad. 34s didn't adopt the 'M'. I thought they did...but i guess that's why I drive a 32. Yeowww

Thats a dope link as well. Should sticky that if not already.

Not everything in those factory specs is 100% correct.

For example, they list the "standard features" (in my eyes, every car has regardless) as having fog lamps. Mine does not. It has the switch for them, but it has the GTR style OEM front end on it without the space for fog lamps.

Type M it is.

M-Spec = R34 GTR variants.

    • All I'm hearing is sequential swap time. Gives you a shifter, and crisp hard fast shifts. You can even use flappy paddles with them. You just can't give the shifter the side to side shake to make sure you're in neutral 
    • HKS2530 frame and a newer CHRA plausible? like a g25-500 CHRA in the hks2530 frame?
    • Welcome back mate ,I also joined in the early 2000's , since then I have been in and out a few times depending if I had a skyline in the garage.  I have the another one now , so signed up and back with the SAU team.
    • I used "different strokes for different folks" quite pointedly as honestly, there is no wrong when it comes to choosing what you like.  I always day dreamed about flappy paddles with fast shifts in a sporty RWD Turbo and to me the sound and feel of it cutting through gears in a steady stream is exciting, engaging, and keeps the car better balanced - I *also* like h-patterns, but I find them more engaging and fun in a nice hoonable peaky NA thing.  Type-R Integra/old school NA rotary, things that are raw and need all the rpm where picking the gear and getting it sky high is part of the engagement of the whole thing despite the fact that they probably need closer ratios and faster shifts even more than a 3l turbo thing haha  
    • If I wasn't allowed or really had the desire to visit China it would probably fit in my carry on, but I have no desire, Japan would be nice during Cherry Blossom time though I might need to chat to Jackie about that, that should actually be an easy conversation though as she is currently talking about another cruise, cruise ship to Japan, a week in Japan to see the sights, then cruise home I may even be able to find those OEM NC Recaro seats over there that I cannot find here 🤔
