Just got off phone from NISSAN, 93-2/96 was a option on Turbo coupe.

Now we are talking Turbo and we are talking coupe.

2/96-end of production ABS is standard equip.

information taken from Nissan Japan spare parts computer

Now I have only seen turbo coupes 2/96 with ABS. never without.

I only go by official nissan information, and thats what I pass on to the people on this forum.

I do not listen to anybody at auctions or brokers in Japan, in fact I don't buy from them, I don't trust any of them

I think you could both be right.

I had a look on the http://imports.motortraders.net.au/ site (formerly japimportcar.com) and it lists two model variants for series 2 r33 gts25ts (manual, coupe). The first 1996-1997 has ABS as an option, and the second 1997-1998 has ABS as standard.

So it could be that only the late model series 2 have ABS standard and the earlier series 2 ones don't.

I guess I have to repeat what I said.

ALL MY INFORMATION IS FROM NISSAN

they are the people that build the cars we are talking about.

I don't think japimportcar.com would know more than NISSAN JAPAN. in fact I don't think anybody would no more than them!!!

If it doesn't have ABS and the build date is later than 2/96 then its NOT ORIGINAL. (FACT)

If you disagree then ring Nissan Japan.

Sure MR-GTR.. but the person who you spoke to at Nissan did not build the cars.. perhaps he just looked up the one model variant (later series 2) and gave you that info.

How do you suggest that there are so many series 2's without ABS? Are people removing it or what?

I hardly think 50% of them have gone out and done a series 2 conversion on their series 1 .. and changed the interior too? =)

ok people, the truth has come out, I've got the original skyline series II japanese catalogue right here in front of me and its says quite clearly (well its in japanese but you could work out) that the gts25t type M with active LSD (which is a seperate model by itself) and the gts-4 are the only ones with standard ABS. the rest which include the type M specII and the spec I and all the nonturbo versions have it as an option

I guess the guy at Nissan is a idiot, I was unlucky to get such an incompitant fool, I will get him to ring you for any information he needs. or maybe he can call your suppliers direct, it will make it so easy for Nissan japan to source such accurate information ,

I am sorry to have questioned your experience in Skylines.

Can your suppliers get me some of these genuine cars too, all these years Ive been relying on Nissan , I should have listened to all those aussie, kiwi, canadian, paki, indian,and shri lankin car brokers living in Japan, all hanging around the scrap yards and auctions, Over the past 9 years I've lost so many honest genuine deals. I should have just purchased over the net like most here,

I'm crushed , I won't sleep tonight.

Well I've been back to Nissan again, series 2 was released in Oct 95 officially, as from 2/96 all series 2 33 turbo skylines were fitted standard with ABS.

Prior to 2/96 it was a option on all 33 version cars.

like I said from my first input on this

from 2/96 all 33 skylines were fitted with ABS, the brochure was printed prior to 2/96. this is official from Nissan

Yes your correct I suppose, it was you instant who said 33 all had ABS standard, I agree with you as I personally have never seen a Turbo series 2 without ABS, I contacted Nissan to find out the truth from them , I guess some people don't want to find the truth.

But this I do know for sure !!!!! there are a lot of non genuine supposibly "genuine" cars out there, give me your chassis no and model number and I'll find the truth for you. IF YOUR NOT AFFRAID OF THE TRUTH. I can also find how many owners its had and where it was sold and where it lived in japan , also 80% of Skyline imports are purchased from the "accident repair section" of the auctions.

in the end I guess as long as your happy with it then thats what counts.

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      By Degzy · Posted

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
