Hi fellas,

I'm a bit confused, I see so many R33 GTR's out there with different genuine bumpers out them but which ones belong to which series so need your help.

The front bumper on my R33 currently is the one in picture "04.jpeg" and I understand it is a series 3 genuine front bumper with lip. This is by far, in my opinion, the toughest looking one out of them all. Your thoughts?

Cheers

Aren't all the bumpers the same? except some have the N1 ducts, only real change I think was the lower lip which was different from series 1 - 3

I'm not sure bout the 2nd pic but it looks like those are just cosmetic attachments to the existing bumper - the other bumpers look the same as yours except different lips

I could be completely wrong but I really don't pay that much attention to peoples bumpers

yes all bars the same are the same with only the series 3 having the lower lip.

i believe n1 slots were an optional part and pic number 2 is just a standard bar with the nismo oil cooler ducts in place

Hi mate, the oil cooler vents - did they come stock from factory? So all the others besides the series3 did not have a lower lip?

I think the stock genuine bumpers look best, what do you guys think?

no, if you bought the nismo oil cooler kit it came with the vents.

series 1&2 had the same lip on them

series 3 as above has said came with a lower front lip with lager intakes for the brake air ducts

Oh I see ok...how about those N1 nostril ducts...did they come standard as how come some didn't have them...without them it just seems wrong...agreed?

Standard bar with 400r front lip also looks nice,

But if you can get your hands on a genuine series 3 lip at a good price then get it. They sell for $1300 brand new

I was lucky, picked up a brand new series 3 genuine GTR front bar for $1K.

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
