gtstcruiser67 Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 I'm after some info/history on the 1996 R33 "Nismo" Skyline. Apart from the badges all over the car, what else was sorted on these cars? Were they lightened, different diff, etc? How many were made? Is there a link to a site I can have a look at? Thanks for any help on this one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtstcruiser67 Posted March 2, 2004 Author Share Posted March 2, 2004 are we talking about the nismo 400r? No, it's the GTS-T. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/#findComment-708304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanJSL Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 No, it's the GTS-T. There wasnt a NISMO GTST . The only NISMO R33 was a production run of 99 cars called 400Rs of which only 44 were ever sold to the public :headspin: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/#findComment-708305 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimX Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 I think there was a Nismo Type M, which has the Supra style spoiler on it. I don't think it was much different from the normal Type M though aside from some cosmetics.

nmcmahon83 Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I saw a GTS-t with a supra (aero) type spoiler on it... Just assumed the guy was an idiot who's car was having an identity crisis.

sewid Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 There was a 1998 Type-MR model. These are the only photos I have that show cosmetic differences. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/#findComment-708686 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RedLineGTR Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I believe there was a Nismo version i believe it just had some cosmetic things inside and out no hardware based stuff from what i had found. The one above my post was a 40th anniversary one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/#findComment-708780 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubes Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 I have a vid of a few R33's & r32's running around a track. It says something about a R33 Nismo. It is definately a GTS-T. For a while it was leading the pack until it went wide on a corner and the 32 GTR zipped up the inside. Handled well and off the line had no problems at all breaking traction in second.

usuckpoo Posted March 3, 2004 Share Posted March 3, 2004 Rezz... how much do those 280 MRS command compared to a regular r33 of similar age? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/35456-r33-nismo-skyline/#findComment-709745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtstcruiser67 Posted March 8, 2004 Author Share Posted March 8, 2004 I went searching online a few nights ago & came up with nothing. I can only guess it's one of only a few out here(in oz),with mainly cosmetic changes. None the less, it is a sweet looking car & goes as well as it looks.I may make it to the show & shine at Mingara on 28th, and may be able to sort this mystery out.

predator Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 Well Nismo would have maybe built some for racing possibly? Otherwise its probably the Nismo LM GTR they're talking about...
