i used to own a type S. all i could see that was diffrent as far as i no. Is you get a LSD and a rear window wiper. i no theres more to them but thats the main things i think. I noticed mine was a type S when i first picked it up, and started driving along..... pulled up at a set of lights, took off hard all the way to the rev limy in 1st and than snaped 2nd and dumped it, And weeeeee the ass end steped right out and cracked back just as quick.

I liked that car hehe

Cheers

- Extra 10 hp 200hp vs 190hp

- Uses 0.6L/100 more 10.2 vs 9.6 per 100kms freeway driving

- LSD as standard, (LSD is an option on non type s)

- 40kg heavier than non type s

- Rear wiper standard (option on non type s)

my NA has the rear wiper and had the variable flap thingo in the rear muff too......if its a type s there sure as hell isnt anything else on the car anywhere else that says its a type s lol.

You can check your chassis number. If its non turbo and starts with E-ECR33 then you have a type S. If its E-ER33 then you have a standard R33 non turbo.

along with the already mentioned differences is the type s has hicas and a rear sway bar, where the non type s don't, also the badges on the front guard are different colours, type-S has the red GT badges where's the non type S has blue.

Mine's a type S but its got blue badges......

I thought red badge = turbo, blue badge = NA?

yea mine has the type s chassis number and the red GT badges. i always thought the previous owner just put the red GT badges on there haha.

im pretty sure that your previous owner put those red badges on, as red = turbo and blue = NA.

cheers

    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 馃槑
