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 MBS206 · Posted

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

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

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
