go a r34 just newer with a more modern interior newer engine etc if you can afford it. But like the guys said if you wanna drift or just have a turbo to strap around in get the 32 over a 33 anyday

hmmm hard choice r32's are all hot i have one myself, s14s i only liked the series two's they look mean but now after watch the drift bible i really like his S14 S1 its nice, and in the r33 it can only be series 2

but depends on the use

Work out what you need from a car, then choose based on that. If you regularly have more than one passenger, then maybe the S14 is a bit too small. If you do a lot of highway kms, the larger R33 body may be a little more comfortable. The R33 would probably hold the cards over the other two in a straight line too, despite the extra weight (25% more capacity will do that :) ). If you want to drive like a nutcase, buy the S14 (and go join NS.com :rofl:). The R32 is probably between the two in character IMO.

Don't work your lifestyle around your car - get a car to fit your lifestyle!! :(

S1 S14s are shockingly ugly. They look like the front lights of a Camry. You’re never going to turn heads in that thing.

Don’t get this unless you plan on giving it a strawberry face (S15) latter.

33 is great if you want to do 0 - 25 knots in under ten seconds

32 is a 15 year old car.

just as a guide, my S14 had 175rwkw using exhaust, FMIC, pod, 1 bar boost, SAFC.

ran a best of 13.8 with all stereo, heavy 17's, full tank of fuel.

best 60" time I got was 1.9

my options would be

1.) S14

2.) R33

3.) R32

Oddly enough, the current car I have is an R32 4 door GTS4.

which ever one i get it's gonna be used as an everyday car so no track use at all.

but ofcourse there will be some cash spent on both cosmetics and engine. unfortunately i can only afford series 1 s14 and early model R33.

thanks

if it's just a daily car and no track use i say go the 33 GTST. cushy seats, newer, roomier (slightly) car and more torquey engine. that's if you dont mind driving a whale of course.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
