1. I don't know what the diff between normal and Type-M is, but..

Series 1 v. Series 2:

- different front bar (series 2 has the two round fog/indicator lights)

- different rear spoiler (series 2 = larger one, 1 = smaller curved spoiler)

- airbags (series 2 = twin airbag, s1 = none or drivers only)

- stereo (series 2 = double din cd player)

And series 1 stopped in late 95.

Pics of series 2's at www.timgriffin.com/skyline/ (stock silver/gun metal/pewter)

I'll find some pics of s1's for you..

2. there is a thread on this, people say they get between 250-500km's per 65L tank. There is interesting stuff about SAFCs in the threads too.

3. www.nismo.com.au (UAS) has prices for the front bars not including painting or install

4. there are bodykits on the UAS site

5. I don't know - I am waiting for my Skyline to arrive

6. I dunno how to describe the boot size It's a little smaller than my N15 Pulsar's.

fuel economy is a big grey area, it depends on what you run etc, if you get one the best thing to do is fill it up, and press that button to start kms again... that way you will know for your car..

ive done it in my r32 get about 450ish kms but i had a little to go in tank. so i would predect about 500... to empty...

when i hit E after a tiny bit the fuel light comes on which means 10 litres to go, which is like 100kms when i drive soft(knowing you on last 10litres)
