Sorry you guys might be thinking this question has been answered a million times before.

But im asking because i need certain body parts for my car

I recently got into a car accident. Nothing major really.

Damages were mainly rims, body and the last thing i cant really figure out.

My rear right wheel is on a slight angle at the moment... guessing lower control arms?

Anyways, just wanted to ask about the body differences of a r33 s2 (my car) to a s1.

What body parts i need are the front bar, left front guard and the rear left guard (if thats what you call it).

Everything else is minor scratches and dents... they can be fixed easily.

I was wondering with those parts, is it possible for me to get them of a series 1 r33?

Hoping they would fit.

Also any help with that rear wheel would be appreciated.

Thanks

oh ok... so i guess i should watchout what to buy

Yea i have a r33 s2 m-spec

does that mean i have to find the exact body parts for my car?

I plan to fit the car with a new Jun bodykit

thought having a s1 front guard wouldnt be too much of a difference

I thought the front guards were the same. The headlights and bonnet are the same. I thought the Series 2 had different front bar & different wing, not sure about side skirts.

I would think that panels for an R33 Skyline should fit series 1 or 2.

    • Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.
    • I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual       
    • I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.
    • IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.
    • Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
