Well most people who have R33s would say get an R33 and most with R32s would say get an R32. It really comes down to personal preferance. I would say get an R33 (not just because I own a R33), this is because they have more room then the R32s and also they a are newer vehicle with a larger motor.

At the end of the day it is your decision and you should shop around and make sure you buy what you want.

I've got a 34 so I won't be biased here. If your budget only allows for a 32 or 33 I would go for a 33. 32s are getting on with age and its harder to find a good example. Reliability is more my concern and hence the newer option. Tht doesn't mean the 33s won't give you any problems as well. Choose carefully and get it well inspected b4 u commit.

id definitely go with R32, but i am biased :ninja:

i just find they are lighter, and easier to work with.

Depends what you want to do with it also... whether it be for motor sport, cruising, or just daily fun...

definitely a personal preference, but the 32's (imo) just look a lot cleaner and tidier and they have a such a sexy bum lol (but id definitely agree with the R33 engine part :laugh: )

ive owned 2 33's one of them being a gtr.. however if i had a low budget id buy a clean 32 if you can find one.. if spending aroudn 17-22 id invest it for a 33 which you can buy decently now days .. only reason i sold the 33 was being old 97 model as opposed to the 34.. plus the looks personally 32's look tougher .. 33's are bigger and more floater ... 34s are much of a combination of both .. go 33 if u want room .. 32 if u want a car that you wont keep for long.. if i where in your shoes.. id buy a mid prices 32 .. simple mods and keep it for a few yrs.. only coz i havent owned a 32 .. (32 GTR's are nearly same price as some late S2 97+ model 33's) so thats another thing to consider.

Whichever you buy get it for your own reasons.. importantly take your time !..

33 for me. I looked around a bit and for me the 33 did it. there are some shit hot examples of 32s getting around but by and large i found too much of the boy racer deal attatched to them.

The 33 has a tad more conservative appearance but can be modded to freakin hawt if you want.

At the end of the day its your call. They are all good cars if you take care of them.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
