What are the differences btween R33 GTS25T Series 1 and 2??

[Ballistic]

Just wondering what the differences were between the 2 types of R33 GTS25T's both mechanically and visibly.

Thanks.

The r33 S1 front bar and wing are a the design of the devil, on valium. The R33 S2 looks mean as. Also the turbo is different.

These questions have been answered many many times.

the easiest way to tell is by looking at the rear where the skyline word is on .. on a series 1 its same colour as the signal and reverse lights .. but in the series 2, its same colour as the body .. if you look inside a series 2 .. it has 2 airbags .. when the series 1 doesnt have any ...

[Sir R33]

the differences are twin airbags, front bar with foglights, bonnet, interior trim is a lot better looking, better rear wing, switch for electric aerial, slightly different dash and the centre piece between the reverse lights are painted body colour. Overall they are a much better looking car:thumbsup:

Thats not Totally true,,,My S2 has the white or clear "Skyline" wording type centre beaver trim.

Mines Factory Fitted and is Illuminated......

So is the fact that I have no ABS(Thank God),no side skirts,,,but do have the Cool S2 front bar, extra lip with functioning fog lamps(also factory Fitted),,,dual air bags,,,factory fitted Remote central locking,,,I'm the 2nd owner. 1st owner optioned what he wanted,,,, Should I stop now,,,,.

R33 S2's could have just about any option the buyer wanted. I even have a switch in my centre console called "Light Reduce". Got no idea what it does,,,,I forget to get my mate in Japan to ask that question,,,,.

[NO_RSPECT]

No difference, people keep saying there is a difference. there is no plastic, the part numbers are the same through nissan. how can it be. anyone else want to clarify

fark know why they didnt bloody make it ball bearing for frigs sake.

do not quote me on this

but

S1 = Ceramic Inlet Wheel on turbo

S2= Plastic Inlet wheel on turbo

this has been said many many many many times before

and i have this funny feeling if not me but sumone will say it again

in sum other post

[ex-static]

I have also noticed from stock s1, to stock s2, that the s2 seems to spool alot quicker..

Maybe it was just me.. but ive heard this from a fewpeople as well

Overall they are a much better looking car

I TEND TO DISAGREE!!!!!!

I have a problem with the angularity of the s2 lights + the heavily ribbed bonnet and of course, the front bar.

Personal opinion of course.

[akeenan]

yeah i reckon the series 1 front looks totally better than the s2 for sure!

[Sir R33]

the s1 and s2 turbo are both the same!!!!

how the hell do you think the s1 front end looks better than the s2 the s1 is slow pain and dull they look like a manga

of course that is just my opinon :uh-huh:

[dojobi]

I also think the S1 looks better when it's kitted up. IMO the S1 and S2 stock kits both look like shit and should be immediately replaced by aftermarket ones. I prefer the GTR style headlights on the S1 too.

BTW my skyline word at the back is red, but I think the guy must have painted it or replaced it as mine is a 93 and there's no way that is one of the hybrid S1/S2 cars that they made in 95.

so when does your neon light turn on? is it when you turn on your lights or do you have a switch?

Sir R33,,,,No switch,,,it lights up when parkers or headlamps are on.
