hmm a stock GTR? :D

but yeah, it does all come down to personal preference.

when deciding i opted for the 32 due to its aggressive racing looks as compared to the much larger and rounded (whale) of a 33. awesome car though, a few good improvemnts over the 32 such as a larger engine, something that will be going into the 32 soon hopefully :D

Well the reason i fell in love with the R33 is because of dare i say it the NISMO 400R body kit available for it.

definately nice!

Note

400R front bumper $595

Nismo Style rear wing $595

400R Side Skirts $450

400R Rear bumper and spats $495

400R style Carbon bonnet $1095

ie around $3K and you have a R33 GTSt that looks like a 400R!!!!

no offence but doing that is fairly ricey :D

Either way I think u misunderstand. I didn't mean to bag the 33. As stated they're both nice cars and have more in similar looks wise than they are dissimilar. Enuff said on this topic as there seems to be a very negative vibe brewing for no reason.:D

Could of got a 33, however newer is not always better in both the GTSt and GTR. although it depends what your looking for,the 32 is a much more throw-able, sports orientated car. If you want more of a family car the r33 is the go, as it has it's taxi heritage.

Nissan said them self they were trying to build the r34 to have spirit and throwablity of the 32 and the space of the 33. So it all comes down to, of course, personal preference and prioritys

If you want tuff, get a 70s Landcruiser. You want racey buy an ex rally car complete with exhaust shop decals from head to toe.:D

I cant say i prefer R32s over R33s simply because i own an R32. I have seen some shocka R32s, and some shocka R33s. If looking at stockas, ie wheels, body, ride height i then have a slight preference for R32s.

Go enjoy a sunny weekend kicking tyres getting a feel for what you like, by way of styling and driving. If Melb is anything like Syd, caryards can be like Nazis when you want to test drive, one place wanted 5k deposit. But you will soon find a place that you will only be too happy to give your maney to.

Maybe some Vic guys should get together and give you a raz in their respective cars, if you were in Sydney id only be too happy to.

Well the R33 was designed in a period where Nissan also released, the S14 silvia. It seemed the mid nineties nissan wanted to add a bit of luxo to their sports cars, which is probably why the R33 and S14 both got larger and better optioned than their respective earlier series.

Where as the R34 and S15 seemed to gravitate back towards a more pure sports styling (something the R32 always seems to be credited with).

I wont offer an opinion on R32 vs R33 because obviously im biased.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
