Hi guys, i just joined the forums here, cos i'm looking to buy a u13 attesa and wanted to know something.
What's the difference between the models that have different front bumpers?
For example, a lot of them have the lower fog lamps on the outside and a different looking area in front of the intercooler.
The other ones look very similar to the u13 LX, whereby the lower lights aren't there and the whole front area looks very LX ish.
Can someone please tell me what the differences are likely to be, between these cars?

Are looking to buy the one in Lara, Geelong?

Thats a SSS-G (originally SR20DE) that was converted with a U12 SR20DET motor.

Don't worry too much about the bumpers, I've seen alot of aussie KA24DE FWD Bluebirds with import ATTESA bumpers.

Afaik there are only two types of attesa bumpers:

Series 1 (1991-93/94):


and Series 2(94+):


The series 2's also come with an ugly ass grill:


If you have any more questions drop me a pm (or post em here) :)

There may have been interior trim differences between the SSS-G attesa and the SSS-Attesa limited.

That lara car seems quite good, but most of the JDM U13's don't have the aussie SSS luxurious like cruise control, heads us display... etc
