I have had my car for a few years now, Have been busy spending money on other things like girls and my place...

Now I have some spare cash i have Been interested in doing a few things to my car,

My plates state it was Built in March 1998 which when i look online like Wiki states its the Anniversary edition but its a GTS-T

also its front grill is so different i have not seen one like it before, i have no clear pics of it but here is one (It has a Red Skyline S in the middle)

I would love to find out more information on this car as no one seems to know, I read somewhere that there are such things are R33 Series 3 but are they only the GTR models? also someone mentioned it could be M-Spec as its exhaust is also a Nissan Cannon which came from stock here is another pic i have sorry I dont't have many right now as im at work but i will post more when i get home

yeah it has got the black cas, so its just a standard 1998 R33S2? produced in March 1998 and the grill does not look like a job done by anyone it looks stock (its black and red S very detailed) just like the Cannon Nissan Exhaust that came stock

As far as i could find when i researched mine, the 98 Anniversary model just had a few more factory body options over the rest.

GTR Style front bumper, GTR wing etc. Mine seemed to get the whole hog.

R34/SR20 CAS and i think they have an R34 cold start valve or something like that. And mine also had an extra VAC nipple on the plenum above the nipple for the FPR. Only seen that one one other 98 R33 S2 aswell. lol

Its a series 2 with a series 1 grill. My car came like this when it was imported (Probably had a knock at the front =[ ) 97 model.

For the exhaust I have no idea, mine just says Nissan and is dual tip =)

As far as I know is series 3 only came in GTR's as you said.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
