33 Gtr Front Bumper - Is There A Difference Between S1 And S2? Educate Me...

[mattysaidso]

Hi,

need some info regarding R33 Gtr fronts.

Is there two different shaped GTR front bumpers? one to suit the profile of series 1 headlights and a different one to suit series 2? (like the GTST family)

Or are they all the same on the GTR's?

thanks

No!

The gtr's head lights never changed shape.

The only change (excluding nismo and all that) was that the series 3 front lip is far bigger

Thanks for the info Hadouken,

So are all 33 gtr headlights the same shape/front profile as a series 1 gtst? or a different shape all together?

Pretty sure the bumpers are the same for series 1 / 2 apart from the series 2 having the N1 vents in the front of it.

Standard Front bar.

Series 3 Front bar.

Series 3 Front bar but with lower lip painted.

Nismo 400R.

^ Nice.

You would know more than me, but im pretty sure i've seen quite a lot of series 2 (96 model) R33 GTR's with the N1 vents also. Know that they are not series 3 due to no xenon and no rear fog lamp.

95 model = no N1 vent.

Dammit! now i feel my car needs N1 slots!

[Hadouken]

The n1 vents were a factory option, maybe s3 were standard with n1's.

Op, what is the aim of your question? What do you want to do?

Probly the only cosmeic mod id ever really bother with

Standard R33 GTR front bar with N1 vents in it.

Its the fat Series 3 bottom lip that makes it look a lot more agressive.

I guess you could always add them in -

Suppliers such as Jsai have them available - http://jsai.com.au/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=124&category_id=67&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=29&vmcchk=1&Itemid=29

Hope this helps.

yer im definatly considering it... i already have the series 3 lip

^^ It's also a functional modification as they allow more air to the FMIC.

It will fit, Need to take about 1/2'' of plastic of the sides, and using a GTR rebar makes things fit spot on,

A few of the UK boys have done it, Came out looking the goods

thanks for all the info.

I have a ser2 33 gtst, what i wanted to achieve was a gtr front. But wasnt sure if there was a version to suit the ser2 headlights. So turns out there isnt, bummer.

Out of interest is this bar a standard 33 gtr or series 3?

^^ I'd say Series 3 but no air vents as they were factory option.
