a good upgrade might be a factory GTR clutch and flywheel (from early R32) i have a billet lightweight GTR flywheel and Excedy HD GTR clutch in mine, clutch grip is phenomenal (second gear clutch drop lights all 4s with fat tyres) on RB25DE+T but you pay for it with your left leg, it is brutal heavy and bitey, Ive got a mate with a 4000lB Jim berry full monty clutch, and that's light as a feather compared.

i bought a gtr exedy clutch is thats and good

how do you know if a GTS4 is a S1 or S2? Also do they use the exact same drivetrain as an r33GTR, gearbox and diff?? Also would an rb25neo mate easily in the r33 chasis.

S1-(1993 - 1995) S2-(1996 - 1998) S2 would have the following : it would have different rear wing different, front ba,r different steering wheel, have passenger airbag, different seats i think its just really obvious.

Chassis number would be ERN33 on a GTS-4, you would see a transfer case in the engine bay to the left of it ( on the drivers side) right down under the engine

all specs can be looked at here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATTESA (look for ATTESA E-TS system)

ATTESA E-TS system is used in the following models:

* R32 and R33 (1989-1997) GTS4 Skyline

* GT-R - 1989–2003

* Nissan Stagea

* A31 Cefiro

* Infiniti G35x/Nissan Skyline (V35 & V36)

* Infiniti M

* Infiniti FX

* Infiniti EX35 (with Active Brake Limited Split for side-to-side torque split, as needed)

* Nissan Fuga (Known as Infiniti M in export markets)

how come my cluster and another r33 cluster is different the other one has slip light and A-LSD light in the middle of the rev counter and mine doesn't could this be due to cluster change or mine just doesn't come with it.

You must have had your dash replaced, maybe with a lower k one?

Mine has a Slip light and a 4WD light. They both come on with ignition but I've never had the 4WD light up, only the slip.

if i got a proper gts-4 cluster how would i go about wiring up the slip and awd lights?

Edited by niiko101

the plugs on the back of the dash should both be the same so it should just be a case of unplug 1 dash and plug in the other. doubt there will be any need to touch any wiring as it should just be 1 or 2 big plugs (can't remember if it's 1 oe 2 plugs)

The first picture is of an automatic gts-4, dont ask me why but the automatic gts-4 has a A-LSD light (As you can see in an owners manual for r33's) where as the manual skyline has a 4WD light instead of a A-LSD light, they are the same thing and they still have a A-LSD in the rear wherther it be auto or manual transmition......

Also that picture says the orange warning light is transmition well thats bullshit because its a engine warning light so dont believe that,

R33 GTS4 CLUSTER SERIES 1 AND 1.5

(right side of cluster) The 2 ontop you should have a seat belt reminder light (i dont think this works with compliance seatbelts), engine warning light,

Then the 3 below are, oil pressure warning light, exhuast warning light and battery warning light.

(left side of cluster) The 2 ontop are, door ajar, SRS air bag warning light

Then the 3 below are Low fuel warning light, ABS warning light, Brake warning light (used for handbrake but also reads when your low and brake fluid)

Then you should have 5 gauges, following from left - right

Water tempature, Fuel , Speedometer, Tachometer, Oil pressure

So far thats a GTS cluster, the last two things are a GTS4 thing and its SLIP and 4WD inbetween the Tachometer

Judging the second picture is yours, the cluster is a GTS one. It will work fine in a GTS-4 because its got a few pins missing that the GTS-4 cluster uses for the SLIP and 4WD lights. There for the 3 plugs on the back plug in as normal but the extra pins on the plugs for the GTS-4 for your SLIP and 4WD lights have nothing too do.

Has anyone ever seen there SRS, Fuel or seat belt lights in the working? i cant get any of them up when i have igntion on and am suspection the seat belt one wont work......but fuel never comes on when im low and just have never seen the SRS one and im not game too make that one show :D

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
