Hey everyone im pretty new to SAU forum and would just like to say hey for starters :D

Just got my first skyline !! WOOT

I have had it for about 3 months now , i have been into them for agez and is a dream come true to finally own one xD

I however unfortunately yet am not the go to guru about the car and still learning about it ' mechanically' which has been fun.

I have come here to ask the question and hopefully get some good responses towards my skyline and any constructive comments are

more the appreciated =D

I have had a few friends and a few random skyline owners i have come across in my travels have a look at my car and i haven't really got a set

answer as to; What series my skyline actually is ?

Helping me out with this will help me better understand my car and i wont be going to buy S2 parts instead of needing S1, visa versa teehee.gif

Also any cool upgrades you think would go nice with this car please let us know

Cheers Guys!

Ps: One of the lights says S2, but i think it may because of a replaced headlight..

Photos attached. thanks.gif

I see thankyou, well apparently mine is 1995

What fits on 1.5 ? mainly S1 things or does 1.5 have its own type of bodys etc?

Im looking at buying someones S1 front body this weekend would like to know if its gonna fit :)

S2 front end, S2 engine, S1.5/S2 steering wheel, S1 interior, S1 wing, S1 rear gander. Bit of a tough one, but being a 1995 model it's definately a S1.5.

^WHS

But S2 comes with a different S/wheel.

And yeah, imo keep the S2 front end and get a S2 spoiler thumbsup.gif

Definitely Series 1.5 with S2 front conversion and for some retarded f**ked reason a S1 wing lol

Fronts bars are all interchangeable, just not grills and bonnets due to the difference in headlights.

LOL, didnt look at plates, sorry.

You guys should have a "PAY IT FORWARD" section over there like we do in the SAUNSW members section, we use it for parts that are gathering dust in the bowls of our garages and sheds, you put all your spares up for free but you get to pick other parts which you get for free, old school swap meet style.

Someone give this man a S2 wing.

Front bar is NOT exactly interchange, the lower edge of the series 2 headlights sits back further than the series 1 lights so the top edge of the bumper is also different. With that said they will swap over and look ok from a distance but it won't be right. Just stick with the series 2 front.

Also for other folks looking to identify an R33 its actually quite simple, just check the chassis number:

ECR33-0xxxxx = series 1

ECR33-05xxxx = series 1.5

ECR33-1xxxxx = series 2

The same basic rules applies for many Nissan models.

oh awesome :D thankyou i shall check that soon

yeah unfortunatly my front bar is cracked to far when i bought it i can see the cops just hounding me, i just got a s1 front bar for a sweet deal :)

ill let you guys know how it goes and post a pic of it

cheers

depending on whats been done already, some really basic upgrades that i have done to my 33 are very simple ones, installed a boost tee and boost gauge, uped the boost to 9PSI (will be going to 10-12 in probably the next day or so), plus a CAI system, i did these upgrades only as the previous owner had already installed a 3"exhaust from turbo back and a FMIC (had a monsta brand, swapped it out with a saber one i had lying around) and from my understanding, these little upgrades can produce from my understanding about 20 RWKW (correct me if i'm wrong)

Should save up for an electronic boost controller. Boost Ts will eventually f**k out but before that happens they have the potential to boost spike and overboost your engine AFAIK.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 馃檹 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 馃槈. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 馃槏 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
