I know there were a few Series 1 released with the NEO, but i didn't think there was a series 1 with the series 2 interior released. it looks like they updated the interior, perhaps it was one of the last of the series 1, and the dealer updated the interior to sell it easier once the series 2 came on the market? I wonder if the tiptronic works, as it still has the non-neo RB25, which i would assume had the same transmission as the series 1

" I posted this in an earlier post

"The earliest S2 I can find in FAST is WGNC-120001 which was Aug 1998, so August appears to be the changover. The last S1 found is WGNC34-111092 Jul-98"

this one is WGNC34-111050, one of the last S1s.

Some of the photos of the interior dont match, black dials in one (s1), white in other(s2), so he's just used some incorrect photos.

Very unusual, the picture of the rear seats shows an s1 interior for both the front and back, and the other shot of the interior shows s2 interior trim on the front seats and a tiptronic box.

Maybe they stuffed the photos up when posting, but I'd be sure to check that out in the flesh just to be safe.

I would have to agree with most of the comments on here so far. A lot of the pics don't add up. my best bet is to go down and have a look at it in reality. I brought my car from ebay. It best to go out have a look and ask the seller questions face to face

dealer has a series 2 for sale as well, you can see the tail end of it in one of the photos. The interior cloth patterns are different.

Save yourself the confusion and buy my car :whistling:

1997 Series 1 with mods .. more power than series 2 (155kw at the wheels)

$12,900 with series 2 tail lights and leather interior, best of both worlds.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
