[chock]

Hey guyz,

Was wondering u anyone felt tat the r33 doesn't give good feedback to the driver?

i mean..there's no variable power steering..and i can't "feel" the road..

anyone has the same issue as me? and any good suggestions so i can

"control" my car...

lol

I have the totally opposite opinion...........

Each to their own

I among others on here seem able to peddle a GTS25t reasonably fast, at least as fast on track as new XR8's and HSV's on Semi-comp rubber with a blown shock absorber but since I've put the effort into maintenance and handling setup. Certainly they aren't as naturally gifted as GTR is out of the box, but they have potential.

They do have variable weight power steering, but it changes at 80kmh.

Remember that the car is now probably a few years old and my old 94 models need occasional work to sort out the fatigue problems. The auto is a road car so crisp handling is not as important, but my track car is pretty lineball with the GTR for outright handling and certainly has crisper turn in and a brake feel that I much prefer to the GTR (for now) until I sort the GTR brakes.

Ageing bushes, shocks and all around fatigue can detract significantly from the ride and handling so put some effort in there and see how it performs. There is a guy on here that tested a 96 M3 and found it pretty doughy with 200000km on the clock so they all suffer some weariness.
