M-Spec are in R33 too,

i had one myself. 1996 models onwards, as far as i know it was mainly the front lip, side skirts and rear bar which was different. Also newer interior etc but that was more to the fact it was a series 2 upgrade as opposed to M-Spec.

r33 gts-t are type M, not M spec. it's just that 90% of people don't know this so just refer to them as M spec.

as for what it means, it means jack all in the r33 range. pretty much every gts-t r33 is a type M, except for a rare 4 door auto gts-t which is a type G or something like that.

in the r32 gts-t the type M meant bigger brakes and leather gear boot and handbrake boot, or something like that. but even then, most of them were type M as well.

pretty sure that more comes down to the options chosen. front and rear bars don't mean much as they can easily be replaced. my type M didn't have the more aggressive front bar on it because it had been damaged and it had just had the non turbo front bar put on it.

M-Spec refers to the R34 GTR M-Spec / M-Spec Nur.

Never heard of a M-Spec in the R33 range, as far as I know.

LOL sorry but this is wrong. M (Motorsport) Spec was released on r32, r33 and r34 single turbo skylines. My R32 is M Spec :D 33s and 34s changed it slightly to Type M.

Not everything in those factory specs is 100% correct.

For example, they list the "standard features" (in my eyes, every car has regardless) as having fog lamps. Mine does not. It has the switch for them, but it has the GTR style OEM front end on it without the space for fog lamps.

Type M it is.

M-Spec = R34 GTR variants.

    • I spent the entire of the long weekend going through my garage and I'm now, after 3.5yrs in this house, able to fit a car in. The garage is quite long and the back half has a high enough ceiling for a 2 post lift but it's going to just take too much space and I don't think I'd be able to get around the car if it was in the air. So, in comes the quick lift. It looks perfect. High enough to do most things, I reckon even getting a gearbox out would be doable.  Does anybody here have one? They're fairly cheap (~$3k) considering...  https://www.dtmtrading.com.au/product/quick-lift-portable-vehicle-hoist-3500-kg-worksafe-approved/ I'm also a bit of a non risk taker so I'd probably still use stands when under!  
    • Well now we all see it! I did the same. Then cut it out. Then melted half of it. Then discarded it entirely. So... you're in good company.
    • I just replaced the god awful, sagging, crunchy bonnet insulation. It's something nobody but I see but it's been at me for a while.
    • yeah the south island is stunning, the wifes family is from the west coast down there so we were down there for christmas.   a high 10 would be a stretch but hilarious if it happened. fourth gear is its party gear, i don't have traction to throw more at it at lower speeds. I've found passengers don't think its that fast, i think it's because it has a digital dash so they can't see the needle move so they have no sense of speed
    • You have (externally anyway) a lot of patience!  At the very least your patience has rewarded you financially even if you decided you were over it!! I only just read your first experience of seeing the car, that would have been amazing!  Well documented too! It must be exciting knowing there's only 10 months left until you can get it on a boat and on it's way!!!???
