Hey all,

im looking at buying an R33 series 2 real soon. like within 3 months. ive been saving for this car for over a year now.

i was driving to work the other day and i saw what im pretty sure was a 97/98 model r33. why you ask? because the tail lights were like LEDS. not the standard globes i was used to seeing in all skylines. i know its a series 2 because of the spoiler/wing and front but ive seen 96 model r33 with the standard lights in them. do these 'LED' lights come stock in some r33's? or are they an aftermarket product? p.s. they looked terrible.

also does anyone know of any threads of the differences between series 1 and 2 r33's? thanks guys

No, LED lights are an aftermarket item. The only difference in the rear tail light zone between S1 and S2 is the boot garnish between the indicators/reverse lights which is colour coded on the S2.

p.s. they looked terrible.

also does anyone know of any threads of the differences between series 1 and 2 r33's? thanks guys

that's how you know it's aftermarket. R33s look and handle great in standard form (until the suspension wears out anyway :))

i think they look shit too, i seen them for sale on ebay and they look like super rice to me.

the stock rear lights look great i think

the only differences in series 2 are:

more agressive bonnet

body kit with foggies

color coded front grill

front lights/better reflectors/slimmer

larger spoiler not that ugly thin one that sits just over the bonnet

fabric type on the seats

indented line on either side of the roof.

........ im not sure about those last 2 things.

    • I would hope so. I worry that it also might depend on whether the person working on the claim has had a good day or not. I could imagine that for example modified brakes would be an easy thing to point to for affecting the outcome of an accident. I don't know. I will keep paying my premium and hope for the best. But at the same time keep safe distances, drive defensively and avoid dickhead P-platers in lifted utes  
    • I was just working on the assumption that a cammed V8 is significantly less polluty than a Japanese I6 turbo was at the way they tested it in an IM240. Perhaps I'm wrong! Perhaps cutting one of the readings I got in half is a tall order. I don't know too many people who actually got their cars emission tested with a RB to really compare the data.
    • I thought it was just if “the modification effected/caused the incident”
    • Ok, good to know. I have open loop I think, I forgot which ones which but I am running the o2 sensor, brand new and I got a new boost solenoid because my last one was faulty and overboosting by a lot, but it's still technically overboosting. Haven't really bothered to hunt it down as I don't send it hard regularly.
    • You should not be able to see much smoke behind you if the mixtures are good - for ~13-14 psi anyway. It's not like you need to be running hell rich for only that much boost/load. Your tune might be a tad too rich. The tuner might have done that because they like to run a lot of timing. It's impossible to know what's going on from here. It won't be the actuator. It won't be the MAP sensor. Regardless of if by "MAP sensor" you mean either the Neo ECU's boost sensor (which is literally only that, a boost sensor so that the ECU knows a) that it's achieving boost, and b) that it is not overboosting) or you mean the dash gauge's MAP sensor (because it can't have any effect at all), or you mean the boost controller's MAP sensor (because it is very unlikely that it is running in closed loop, and so it is effectively just used to know when the pressure goes positive and so you can see the boost on the display, for the most part).
