Word.

I went looking at R33 GTS-t’s yesterday for a mates little brother. First one we looked at was a little strange…

Its condition seemed pretty fair for a 1993 GTS-t.

First thing I noticed…Wow, its got one of those Japaneseeee Air Purifiers on the parcel shelf!

Second thing. A Factory drop down lip under the M-Spec bumper….WTF ? Operated by up/down buttons on the dash board.

This was 100% factory install….

Has anyone seen/know anything about R33GTS-t’s with these options ???

They were both factory options. I've got the drop down lip you're talking about. I think it's proper name is a "GT autospoiler"(?)

it activates automatically when you drive but you can also use it when parked if you have the handbrake up.(probably so you can wash it when you wash your car)

As Poombah said, they're factory options. They're not an adapted R31 system, but it is a native R33 options available when purchasing the car new in Japan.

THere's probably lots of other weird factory options that you would never think of, like raising parking pole on the far side (LH) of the front bumper to aid in parking manouver, I have this on my r33, but it's not working as I'm sure it's been disable due to not meeting ADR requirements during compliance.

hey, just curious about your setup...

do you have a FMIC on your car? my drop down spoiler might have to go if I get an aftermarket frontbar & FMIC

cheers :D

SW20-GT: I believe that R32's came with this option aswell. A guy on these forums with an r32 posted a pic of his when I posted a topic about my drop down spoiler, he called it a GT autospoiler if I remember correctly

    • Good to see your rotors appear as rusty as mine 🤪
    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, I’m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, I’ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmation  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4   idle video from that day just because 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
