Get the 33 if its the same price. It'll always be cheaper to buy a car already done than it is to do it yourself.

Then there's the argument "but you don't know what the car been doing".

Get it checked out to see if all is in good order.

You'll rather the torque of the rb25 anyway over the rb20.

If i had my chance again I'd buy a car thats already been done up.

I find it hard to afford to mods for my car.

But thats just me.

he was speaking of a 32 gtr, not a 32 gts-t

If it were me, I'd probably go the gts-t, mainly because I wouldn't want to fork out the money on repairing a broken rb26 should the need arise or maintaining it.

Hang on

this is R32 GTR Vs R33 GTST - that's a no brainer for me (GTR EVERY TIME)

but then - I own an R32 GTR

Agree - always cheeper to buy than modify yourself :(

What for those?

Track/street etc etc?

If i was going track and wanted a FUN car i would take the R33 GTS-t with 220-240rwkw and some good tyres.

Would be excellent fun to drive i reckon.

That said a GTR would also be a good drive but personal for me i light the car to feel light.

Having driven a 34 gtr (going back a while now), it just feels really heavy where my HR31 feels much more nimble and i get enjoyment there.

A GTS-t track car is going to be hella cheap to run even with relatively basic mods.

A GTR will cost a lot more to keep in good working order

This is an each to thier own topic. Thats just my thoughts

R33 GTS-t all the way for me.

Mainly why: Easier to get to hook up on the track in corners, and on a rolling run, capable of going past a GTR with equal power.

If it was for dragging, then a GTR, but I'm a corners person, and I just find that the GTR doesn't handle how I want in the bends.

Edit: Please note, I've only ran passenger in a GTR, but I love my GTS-t to bits (And yes, I've said before I wouldn't swap it for a GTR!)

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then today, I went to visit a man with an r33 hat Peter and Road and Race sorted the alignment. As it is being set up for general track/hillclimbs etc it has a heap of caster (7o), less camber than I am used to (1o front and 2o rear, as the caster looks after that in turns without the braking downsides), 3mm front toe out and 0 toe rear. Will see how that goes and track tyre wear to see if it does need more camber, but adjsustment is also limited with nismo arms and adjustable bushes at only 1 end. It does have a bent inner tie rod on the driver's side front but as it came up within spec I'll just leave that as is. So, that is getting close to my chapter of this story....could of tidy ups then a shakedown in early October before it finds a new home.

      So, it went to Unigroup for a run in and tune on Friday, everything went (generally) well. In terms of fixes, the engine was good and there were no leaks. It needed plugs (I hadn't checked them because the coil pack cover was on a new engine and I couldn't imagine they weren't new.....but turns out the temporary plugs to just keep it sealed up were in there.....new plugs gapped to 0.8 and it was fine from there. Also, there was a little preload on the clutch slave which caused some slip. I haven't had the box off so I don't know what the clutch looks like; my guess it is brand new and the pedal had not been adjusted....backed that off a bit and it held fine. Last thing will have Dose crying....the idle especially when cold is a bit difficult between the cams, forward plenum, atmo blow off valve and an 80s air management system. It is fine when hot but a little uneven when cold, will see if I can sort or at least improve that one cold morning. Other than that, tuning went fine. It made 245 but was pulled back to 227 which 2 opportunities to improve in future. 1. The factory CAS is not great and was jumping around at high RPM, so Mark took 2 degrees out up top (that is why it stops making power and lost 20kw). Very safe this way and the extra power is available but will require a more modern ECU and better cam (or even better crank) sensor 2. The 2871 in factory housings is very big for a low mount, and the internal wastegate is too small, so it was creeping from mid range all the way to redline....the duty cycle on the boost controller is turned down a little for safety. That is much harder to fix, it would need a large external gate and that would require a whole bunch of other changes, so it will go as it is for now. It feels nice and healthy and safe, so should be good for about a billion laps like this.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By Duncan · Posted

      what sort of caliper are they? If they are a slider and you gave everything a good clean, you might need to regrease the pins. My guess though is they will come good after some abuse as suggested above
