How you going.

I just have a few questions as i'm looking to buy a r33 gtst early next year.

a) What is the difference (if any) between the r33 gtst and gts25t?
b) What comes standard in the r33 gtst? For example hicas, abs things like that.

I don't want to go out and buy what i believe to be a fully optioned skyline and it all turns out to be standard. :rolleyes:

Thanks for your help

"gtst" is just what our Australian cousins call the GTS25t :p :D The R32 gtst was 2L, the R33 is 2.5L, hence GTS25t.

Standard, they all have an LSD (no matter what that dirty bizkit said :p ), and a driver's airbag. Series II (mid/late 1996 on) have 2 airbags. All have HICAS

Options were ABS (though apparently the majority of them have this - mine doesn't), and an active LSD like in the GTR (very rare). I don't know what other options there were.

in 1998 xenon headlights were added.

G'day,
There is no such thing as a R33 GTSt it is called a R33 GTS25t because it has a 2.5 lt engine. And if were called a gtst there would be no difference anyway.

I own a R32 but I'll have a guess at the options
Climate Control
Hicas
16in wheels
Power windows, mirrors, steering
Maybe a factory CD player
Airbags
ABS
750 hp engine

I don't know about the lat one, come to think about it I don't know about any of them in a R33. This should give you a rough idea anyway.

Doc

With regards to the climate control, it is digital isn't it.

I had one dealer telling me that this was an added extra abd therefore charging more. But for a 95 model car, you would have to expect that it would be digital and not some crappy lever like i have now.

750HP engine, what the hell? :rolleyes:

As far as I'm concerned he's shitten ya. I'm 99% sure that all skylines w/ AC come with digital climate control. Print up some specs from the R33, take it to the dealer, light it then shove it up his arse.

Cheers,
Doc

G'day Ben,

By the way, it was a pathetic effort to be funny.
Have you ever noticed we share the same car, the same name, spooky ah. But your probably a bit uglier than I am!!:bandit:

All of these (except the last, unfortunately - as you point out :p ) are standard. oops wait, had a second look - CD player is an option, but some sort of stereo is standard. (I got cassete and CD woohoo. Now I just have to try to remember what a cassette looks like :p :silly: )

My 1993 R33 25T has the following:

16" alloys
HICAS
Power-steering
Climate control (digital)
LSD
Electric windows, mirrors (anyone ever seen a R33 with window winders?)
Normal radio / tape deck
Air purifier

No ABS
No airbag

The option list is long and varied for Skylines.

Nah I am better looking, and my car is faster :rolleyes: :D

moondog: ABS and Drivers airbag are Options on the R33GTS25t......not standard.....
.....apart from that, spot on....

...oh yeah, don't forget the retractable front splitter, and the illuminated rear panel options.....(those crazy Japanese)

laters

Jon.

For God Sake, Doctor and Gts-4 Ben, we all have the same car.

But I am far better looking than both of you.
And have a faster car (Shut up anyone that knows better, they don't know)

And can read at an upper school level.

Greg.

I know ABS is optional... I don't have it. :) Driver's airbag is standard in the series II 25t, and twin airbags optional (I think); I thought one airbag was standard in series I also. Guess maybe not.

LOL, upper school. What Pre-school :rolleyes: hehe

Anyway, got some time slips big boy? :D

Tango GTS-4 -

we forgot to settle our sign off name issue. As I recall, you trade marked your name - hehe (good call). Maybe we should make it a age thing, who ever has had the name 'Greg' for the longest can use it.

I got mine in may 1975.

I'll use Greggles for now (seeing some people call me that) :rolleyes: :p

Greggles - hehe :alien2:

Tango GTS4, your mum probably says that your good looking, no one else does. I can't see how a head like a monkeys arse could be good for ones self esteem, you must be pretty disappionted with yourself
:finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger:
And thats to you too Ben

Jokes,
Doc

My face may resemble a Wobats backside, but I am blessed with the charm and wit to pick up the ladies (kinda :alien2: )

hehe Just jokes, you can't be too bad Dr because you have excellent taste in cars.

And GSR I guess the name is cool enough to share. I have used Greg since 1983, but on message board I have used it since 1999 on SDU.

Thanks again fella's, especially Doctor for the kind remarks.

Greg.

Yeah man...

The name is ok, the car is ok......but where's the chicks....damn it!!!

Must be my looks....I must be the one that looks like a monkeys arse :(

But then, who cares, man CAN live without women. oh o (GSr32 prepares himself for the female point of view)
