Of course they are not the exact same and i never said that, and obviously people will pay more for a newer model, but i would have thought, that the basic engine is very similar and to say that a 33 gtr will always respond better to mods than a 32 gtr (especially when you consider the weight of the cars) i would not have agreed with.

Also I would consider the fact that the 32gtr in straight line was quicker than the 33 to start with.

Read HPI issue 51 and all will be revealed.

32gtr's are faster than 33's in "stock" form. Wack an exhaust on the 33 and it would be even.

ill see if I can scan it for you champ and post it up. What im saying is mod for mod the newer model will always make more gains due to things being slightly more revised.

Cheers

Kool, yeah i get where your comming from and that makes sense, all i was sorta saying was starting with a car that is the quickest and lighest, if you looked at the mods in terms of how much faster they make the car rather than how much more power they give, then the r32 may come out on top, depending on the mods

I'm a R33 lover but i can see where your coming from, stock for stock 32 is quicker, mod for mod wouldn't the 32 still be quicker then??? ohh and the 32 is only quicker in a straight line, not around a track and we all know thats what a GTR does best!!

Not really :)

Face it, the 32 has a few more years under it's belt. If today, you were to line up a STOCK 32 with a STOCK 33, i'll put my money on the 33. From Factory, when new, they were a "bee's prick" faster in the 1/4 mile, but today they are more worn and will stuggle to bet the newer models.

Before you reply all defensive and make more statements like; "the mighty 32 gtr, blah, blah, blah", just remember, i too would buy a 32gtr over the 33gtr, but it has nothing to do with the illussion of them being faster.

I would take a 32 gtr over a 33 as well but I would be heavily swayed towards a 33 if it were a series 3 in midnight purple.........

Chris

Ditto...

MNP S3 R33 GT-R is sure one sexy beast, but that's me...

If you want good GT-R, just find one that is in good condition throughtfully whether if it's R32 or R33.

If you want to run on rwd, you could get 2WD/4WD switch thingy, it should work on all model of GT-R (correct me wrong if so).

It's your money, choice and taste, you decide which 1 to choose for, just do what everyone suggested for the ownership of the mighty GT-R.

Cheers

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
