all r33 gtst's are type m, it is an upgrade from the base model, I m not sure whats in the whole package but bigger brakes are one.

Not all GTS-T's are Type M's. A Type M is an option.

Type M's are all manuals, have a different front bumper. Few other things.

Do a search on here or on google. Plenty of info out there...

Type M's were a factory upgrade, basically a different front bumper, slightly different bumper indicators, sideskirts and rear pods.

Given all the different replies with different answers I feel I can be a bit of a smart arse one this one. Its when someone buys a 318i 4 door BMW and puts some cheap m replica wheels on it, and an M badge.

Seriously dude do a search. Its been covered more times that happy birthday.

Personally I think the "Type M" thing is rubbish. There's such a long list of options and no agreement between anyone on what makes up a Type M.

"Type M" is a package that ws offered by nissan on top of the base car. What its made up of and how many cars got it was totally dependant on the dealers at the time and the people buying em. I wouldn't pay much attention to it... esp since most (and according to some... all) R33 GTSt's seem to be Type M's.

Although there are some dyslexic people tend think they own an R33 GTSt M Spec... instead of a Type M. The M Spec was an R34 GTR variant that was the luxury pack with leather seats standard and all that jazz.
