So I sold my Stagea drifter and bought a beater R33.

Here's how it looked a week ago:

Plans are to paint the P1's the grey 2 tone colour, run 16/17 stagger with rim to guard on le rear. I've got a nice subtle kit coming together and a few other things. Mainly just setup to be a basic street/drift car.

Ill be really honest, the two dont even compare to each other even driving around the streets.

The GTR just feels so much more rugged, sports car orientated. Poor turning circle, sit low, and harsh ride, feels so much wider etc

And as soon as you give it some stick, and corning the gap widens greatly!

The GTST feels more like a everyday car that is sporty if that makes sense.

Sit higher, easier to cruise around in, more comfy etc.

Still love driving around in both tho! would never swap either for a holden or ford!! lol

Hahaha good on you. Wow I wouldn't have guessed that. How about the evo 7 compared to the gtr? I'm guessing the 33 wins out if you have that now and sold the lancer? ;)

I only ask because I'm considering getting an evo 7/8 as my next car and when I was younger all the SPEED magazines and Best Motoring videos compared the evo 7 to the r34 gtr. So I gather it must be good. :)

Loved the Evo 7! LOVED it! Very practical as my daily, having 4 doors and never seemed to get pulled over in it. Comfortable, clean, easy to drive...

Easier to find a good nic Evo 7/8 then it is to find a decent 32/33 GTR.

I just missed the rugged feeling of the GTR over the Evo. Loved the straight line speed, of the GTR and the overall feel of it. But kw for kw the evo would have smashed the gtr if the road was stupidly twistie but apart from that GTR hands down for me.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
