I like all of them. R32 is cheapest and lightest (And I think best looking)

R34 Looks hot as and is the newest

R33 Is the easiest to use as a daily driver

I really belevie that The R33 offers the best value, Easier to find a good condition one than a R32 (For not that much more these days) and about half the price of a R34!!

i love any genuine GTR...

Although i am biased towards the R34 GTR as i feel its the ultimate (gotta love that MFD, along with the rest of the bits that make it a GTR of course)

However, whenever i think the r34 is the king i see a tough example of the the r32 and 33 models...

R34 GTR is God himself scaled down into drivable form.

Big rizza you really have no idea about cars, we all know the potential of the gtr/rb26, but do you even know what rz supras are capable of, in my opinion they shit all over any gtr, as with a few boltons they are able to make 550hp+@ the wheels and run 10's on stock internals. As for traction you can always run nittos 555r's :huh:

meh.

Traction is the main issue.

If they were AWD then we WOULD be in trouble. But till that happens (ain't gonna happen :D ) ......The GTR can never loose.

The inside of the car is where you spend 100% of your time whilst driving it! So, the newer the better I say!! Unless you are an 'U'ber track-master, where an extra 50kg's is actually going to make a difference, they shouldnt be much more to it than that.

I can notice an extra 50-60kg in my car (i.e. carrying a passenger) when I take it for a spirited drive on a country road, let alone when I'm carrying one on the track.

I'm not exactly an uber track master, but even in my 1.5 ton car its noticable.

If your only concern is how much power it makes and how fast it goes down the econobox interval, then you really have no idea what the GT-R is about.

Light-tune daily driver: R34 GT-R M-Spec Nur

Heavy-tune semi-track machine: R32 GT-R

The M-Spec is the comfiest of the GT-Rs, which is more important than a couple of tenths on the track for a daily driver.

But if I could afford to have a "toy" GT-R and be allowed to modify it properly (and not to a set of regulations for racing) I'd get the lightest GT-R and bolt on the good bits from the later ones or aftermarket (like the faster ATTESSA from an R34).

In order I prefer 34, 32, 33. I've bought two 32 GTRs. Want a 34 but might hold off any new car purchases until the 2007 GTR is available.

But if I won lotto in the meantime I'd buy the Mines R34 GTR M-Spec Nur. The one on carsales has dropped from $195,000 to $165,000. I'm still a fair way off though.

power is NOT everything mate, and 1/4 doesnt prove how fast your car goes. put a 550hp rz supra and a mildly tuned GTR on a track then see who the winner is. GTRs are not built to drag although there are quick ones.

yer this is most likely turning into another series bashing thread (old vs whale vs pricey)

What how dare you call the R33 a Whale! I cut you!

hahah jj

Personally I dunno.........I've never been in a GTR, but the one thing that sticks in the back of my mind when choosing is that they all just about share the same components, but the 32 GTR, you can remove the fuse and have RWD fun.........you cant do that in the 33 and 34.......so I dunno.

Is there a cheap way to do this in the 33 and 34?

I couldn't of said it better my self "GTR's are not built to drag", as for a 550hp supra on the track it'll munch any mildly gtr for sure, e.g. Amuse single turbo supra with stock engine pushing aroung 550hp vs mines r34 gtr fully built engine, obviously the supra lost but not by much, but that's a fully built gtr :P search for the vid if you haven't seen it.

I personally own a r33 but my mate owns a 32.

I think the 32 is more of a drivers car if modded well cause it has that chuckable lighter chasis like a s13.

But a r33 is all round a more usable car as it has more room inside and isnt so laggy and slugish in low revs so it makes a better daily driver.

I am a surfer so putting boards in a 33 is a bit easier then his 32, and no i wont listion to my other mates with 4wds and conform! i love my sports car. I know who gets hit up first on the wknd when we are going out!

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
