[pear]

Hi,

I see on one of the other links there is a change the R34 GTT in Aug 2000.

Is there a Series I and II like the R33?

If so, does anyone know what the changes are?

Thanks

the S2 had an increase in torque from 343Nm @ 4000 RPM of the S1 to around 360NM

some info on the interior and exterior.

R34 S1 & S2

Yep increase in torque, also..

Viscous to Helical LSD

Different front bar

Two tone colour steering wheel and gear knob

Aluminum pedals

Darker rims (more GTR colour)

And i think that's about, altho i always forget something when i list the differences

cheers.

also has different material on the seats from the series I

[eharrald]

The Series II’s also have a different turbo, Garret with metal compressor and steel turbine. Boost is set at about 900kpa and I believe the ECU is different as well.

Instruments have silver faces that light up orange, oil press and boost read in kpa vice kg/cm.

Center console is painted a bronze color and has the same radio options as the later GT-R. Shift boot is different and the shifter has about 10% shorter throws.

A good upgrade for Series I GT-t’s is to put a Series II shifter in as it is almost identical to the NISMO one and costs less.

Also the cover for the three gauges in the center has a better finish on it, more like the rest of the dash as does the center vent assy with the hazard button.

The power mirror controls are different as well. And the glove box does not lock.

ummmm

isn't 900kpa like 9bar?? that isn't right,,

on mine , car boosts up till 0.75-0.8 bar approx (10-11psi) (car is stock standard),,

also found out i "used" to have fog lights!!!! but they were removed because a c-west front bar was fitted in japan,!!! doh!!!!

also!!! there was a factory option of "cup holders" at the rear of the center console!! under the ash tray,,,

i don't have an ash tray or cup holders,,, just a plastic cover,, for both... hehe,,,

is ur engine bay bayside blue or is it a really dark navy blue (almost black)??, mine is painted the dark colour, ( so is demon dave's r34) ,, i can't see y nissan didn't just paint the engine bay blue,,,

Sorry about that I meant 90kPa .......extra zero in there.

My engine bay is dark blue/black. I think the 2001 cars got body-color engine bays.

Funny thing is all the white, yellow and red cars I have seen have body-color engine bays, but the silver and light colored cars had the light grey engine bays regardless of year.

[AFRO]

ya its really annoying having the dark coloured engine bay,, you wouldn't believe how many times i've had to say "the car was NOT black before!, the engine bay is Meant to be black!"

lots of people think that the car has been re-sprayed blue....

have u compared ur car against a series I?? is there any difference in performance? (acceleration/power etc etc)?

Not many R34 GT-t's (only 3 I think) on Okinawa so I have not had a chance to "compare" mine against any others.

hey eharrald

can u confirm that the series II r34 has the metal compressor wheel??

is there a way of telling from the outside of the turbo???

do you know if there is a different clutch kit used from the series I??,,, since there is more torque in the series II (i know 20Nm isn't much,, but still u never know),,

i need to change my clutch and need to confirm,,,

thanks

I though that all the R34s had the helical LSD

And I also though that the turbo retained the ceramic and nylon exhaust and compressor wheels.....

[Abo Bob]

I know I have a viscous LSD. That's why it's so shit!

Also, my pearl white series one has a whitish tending towards grey in some areas engine bay.

I'll tell you one thing, it's definitely not pearl white under there.

[Firefrog]

My series 1 has the cup holders for the back seats

[Bass Junky]

I don't have any of those bit, but I DO hve a fog light in the rear bumper.

Hey Afro.

If you wanted to be certain your turbo had the metal compressor wheel you could do 1 of 2 things.

1. Take out the turbo and physically have a look or

2. Pull of the heat shields and look for the stamp on the turbo. If it says Garrett then it is metal wheel, if it says Nissan then it is nylon.

As for clutch, I'm not too certain as I have the tiptronic box.

[AFRO]

My series 1 has the cup holders for the back seats

coz urs is a four door,1

i was talking about 2 door r34's

[AFRO]

oh ya just remembered,,

the series II instrument cluster ,, i.e speedo, tacho, the 3 guages etc all light up an amber/orange colour,, where as the series I lights up white,,

the A/C display still lights ups white on mine

[RyanN]

were the sedans given all factory options (like a Holden calais equivalant)? i notice alot of people asking wheather or not they have a S1 or S2, did nissan actually call them S1 and S2 or is it just factory options? Also, why are there alot of variations of the skylines. ie: the 1998 r34 GTT sedan i have has 'skyline' in individual letters across the middle part of the boot where as some had skyline intergrated into the lower bumper. Another thing is that the sedans only GT shields on the front fenders, some have a GT-T badge on the back boot - below the right light. The interior instrument cluster and optional 3 gauge pod has amber lights (from what people are saying, its S2 that had them that colour but 1998 is an early r34 year so when did S2 skylines start to come out?), the rear seats have there drink holders and ashtrays and the driver/passenger have there own drinkholders. Does the vehicle ID plate state if its S1 or S2?

[Bass Junky]

There a website which details all the differences between the series in teh R34s.

Right down to the little rubber flaps under the bonnet.

But do you think I can find it right now????

[n15m0]

would a S2 turbo be a straight bolt on for S1?? Hearing about nylon compressor wheel just gives me the shivers! Man nylon is what you make clothing with!!??
