the reason why u dont see 32's on the road is because there too good to be driven everyday. if they were driven everyday theyd be like the r33, common and un-special :(

the only reason why i like 32's dayne is cause they crap all over 33's any day :lol:

you say 32 owners hide, i saw 2 r32's at summernats both GTR's, Both fine as. i saw one 33 and that was gtst. if there so embarrased then why would they rock up to a muscle car event? :rofl::):P :P

.....?

What are YOU up to?

Bluprint,

Its a secret :unsure: I need more power.

Anyhow, as we all know R32's are lighter, more nimble, and certainly faster than the fat old 33. Mind you, the 33's extra tourque and comfort make up for....... well nothing really.

The r32 may be cheaper than the 33, and feels like twice the bargan. Amazing!

Anyhow who wants to argue the point is more than welcome to line me up :D

Besides, we are all just sad we don't have R34 GTR VSpec II's sitting around in bayside blue. Maybe with a HKS 2.8 in it..... *goes to find a tissue*

oscar ill give you a run, mine is still stock turbo and i only managed a 13.4 on street tyres, i have done some more little exst mods since, plus next run i want slicks... I vote 33

32 lighter hey by what 100kg maybe 50kg how does an r33 with only 1260 sound to you....... lets run

R32's are OK, its good to see old cars that are looked after by their senile owners.

R33's are better, they fixed up all the mistakes they made with the 32.

1 for the money, 2 for the show, 3 to get ready and 4 to go..................

And that is about the truth until the ?R35? appears [if ever].

a point that hasnt been raised yet is that milk and juice only comes in 2 litres!!! :P

lets face it, if you want to pretend that you own a sports/performance car, buy an R32 or a Remote Control car! i know which would go quicker..... (the RC!!!) :(:):)

I drive a 32 and proud of it!

I aint embarrased to drive one at all. Ill take it everywhere and anywhere... (besides dirt)

And someone mentioned taht 32's are cheaper than 33's

Funny that, when i was buying mine, 32's were goin for more than 33's.

32's may hava an older shape.. but the 33's are to round.. like a lil bubble.. haha bubble..

yea.. i vote 32's.. there just a tougher car.

13.4 is a pretty good time on a stocker turbo! I'd be happy with that. If the cars were fully Stocker versus stocker I'd back the R32 though.

I havn't seen Tridents beast since all those juicy parts when in, I imagine that it'd go just fine...

MMMM Mira goodness. Oh yeah, 3 cylinder 650cc love baby :( Love it, 155 tyres, sexy faded paint, clutch squeals in each gear.

Frink!! Only really nasty, cheap old recycled juice comes in 2.5 litres, so there!!!!

Once mods come in, I'll back the car with the most money spent , or spent clever. Mods kinda change the whole thing. :) Besdies, is going fast the only part of the car being "better".

For looks, the 32 is classic, elegant, well thought out. The R33 looks like it needs a diet and some refining - say refinment all the way to a 34...

No one is arguing that a bit of capcity is a good thing, that said - boost is more important :)

MMMMM Tomei 2.4 stroker mmmmm.

2.8 hks..... *more tissues for me*

I really like the look of the R32’s and stock for stock I think they look maybe a little nicer than an R33 (although my opinion sways on this from time to time). However even with the simplest kits the R33’s seem to look nicer than both kitted or non-kitted R32’s IMO. Because of this the R33 is the choice for me, as with only a little bit of external modifications up they look amazing! Just my 2c :(

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
