Word.

I went looking at R33 GTS-t’s yesterday for a mates little brother. First one we looked at was a little strange…

Its condition seemed pretty fair for a 1993 GTS-t.

First thing I noticed…Wow, its got one of those Japaneseeee Air Purifiers on the parcel shelf!

Second thing. A Factory drop down lip under the M-Spec bumper….WTF ? Operated by up/down buttons on the dash board.

This was 100% factory install….

Has anyone seen/know anything about R33GTS-t’s with these options ???

They were both factory options. I've got the drop down lip you're talking about. I think it's proper name is a "GT autospoiler"(?)

it activates automatically when you drive but you can also use it when parked if you have the handbrake up.(probably so you can wash it when you wash your car)

As Poombah said, they're factory options. They're not an adapted R31 system, but it is a native R33 options available when purchasing the car new in Japan.

THere's probably lots of other weird factory options that you would never think of, like raising parking pole on the far side (LH) of the front bumper to aid in parking manouver, I have this on my r33, but it's not working as I'm sure it's been disable due to not meeting ADR requirements during compliance.

hey, just curious about your setup...

do you have a FMIC on your car? my drop down spoiler might have to go if I get an aftermarket frontbar & FMIC

cheers :D

SW20-GT: I believe that R32's came with this option aswell. A guy on these forums with an r32 posted a pic of his when I posted a topic about my drop down spoiler, he called it a GT autospoiler if I remember correctly

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
