FFS I will ban the next person that refers to their "Type M" as an "M Spec"... consider this... an "M Spec" is an R34 GTR variant, usually a whole $80,000 more expensive than an R33 GTS25t Type M.

m spec is surposed to mean sunroof in r33

that is the only difference that i know of and as an owner of one , when i was selling it , i got sick and tyred of people saying that theirs was a m spec when it had no sunroof! :)

yeah not all mspec are meant to have sunroofs, difference are within the brakes, the rims and the bodykit, mpsecs have 16 inches rims and normal sky's have 15s,

So by looking at a s2, how can i tell if it is a type m or not?

Do only series II skylines come type m??

My mate has a 93-95 skyline and i think his one is a Type M... It's got red coloured brakes ( do they all come red?? ), sunroof, and also i think only the Type M comes with the skyline writing on the back boot which lights up???

Anyone can correct me or confirm this?

"Type M' Is an options list available to all r32 and r33s.

It includes such things as body kits, 4 pot front brakes, adjustable front spoiler, and a bunch of other much less useful things; windscreen antenna, air purifier, illumous skyline garnish etc.

'Type S' were similar options available to the non turbo skylines

A list of these options is somewhere on the website.

Also, thanks for calling it typem, and not M spec.

jrocket,

yes, type m is an upper spec model that had some optional extras

BUT.. what you must realise is that >95% of skylines are in fact type M. And, even the non-type M cars have most of the options that the type M had anyway!

almost anything could be optioned in when bought new in japan, thus 5 different type M cars will all probably have different options, but will all be type M

at the end of the day, if a car is not advertised as type M, assume it is a type M unless stated otherwise. If you want to post pics up of the car, we can point out whether its one to steer clear of or not.

happy car hunting :P

    • No intention of driving the car the way it's set up now, just wanting to make sure I haven't made any mistakes along the way so that the tune can go smoothly, I don't want to waste anyone's time with stupid issues. And of course I intend to get it towed to the dyno in a completed state 😅 I have the base fuel pressure with the vacuum disconnected set at about 40psi, which I believe is at least relatively close to stock fuel pressure, maybe I'll have a fiddle with the reg and see what happens. For all I know I could be wasting my time with this and I should just plumb it in and see what the tuner reckons. I just find it a bit strange that it seems to be under so much load just free revving, but maybe that's just a result of the turbo slowing down the exhaust gasses and making a restriction in the flow, with no boost to compensate.
    • The boy just hit up google translate and it worked a treat, he said step one was "please urinate with precision and elegance", he then sent me the correct translation  I get some new loctite for the small fixtures tomorrow and get some "dort" going after that 🤣
    • Right, so is the fuel pressure the same as it was previously? If not, well, it's not going to work well. I can understand the theory I assume you are going for, which is: "Run it N/A, and if I have the original AFM, and same amount of fuel and intake air as previously, the fact there's a turbo in my exhaust should still make it run" Which it... might? Provided you don't actually change how much air or fuel is going into the car.. or getting out. But if you have changed that, all bets are off. What is the purpose to even have the car run this way? To get it to a tuner? And if the goal is to limp it to a tuner, you're still going to what - plumb up a whole intercooler system and new intake in the parking lot out front before your tune......?
    • Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.
    • Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
