your a one lucky guy to have thas kind of options open !!!!!.....silly Q to ask in a skyline forum though....but i think above all the, GTR has that X factor about it......although i think in twisty stuff the evo will probably thump it...

I say have both then you have the best of both worlds, Plus investments are your friend if it was the ultimate descision it all comes to money but id go the r34 n e day over evo :P

Hey guys i own a 06 evo 9 at the moment, but i came across a really nice 02 R34 GTR V-soec for sale, and its at a awesome price and hasnt been comlianced yet. im confused if i should sell the evo and buy the gtr or what :P just wanna know what u guys and girls think. Would u own a evo or gtr, id really appriceted the help

I would go the gtr too but as eug said. Watch the money trap. I guess the problem stems from so many go fast and look good options in the market place for skylines Its hard to know where to stop. If you can discipline yourself to a certain level and just appreciate it for what it is I think you would enjoy it immensely.

Yeah thats very true, IF i did go the 34, id so simple things just like my 33 GTR

So given really there isnt THAT much difference between the 33 and 34 (other than newer and obviously looks). Why did you sell the R33 and get the evo?

For what your going to use the car for, maybe look at something compleatly different? Just a suggestion.

The EVO is an awesome car, they do very well on the track with little money spent on them. The fuel economy will be better in an EVO and its nice having a newer car because generally speaking they have less problems.

Having said all that, an EVO doesn't make me moist so I say GTR all the way!

    • Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.
    • Great work Duncan, any events local you will give it a test once all done? 
    • Sweet, yeah hoping stock gears will hold up. May use the transbrake feature on hill climb starts so that will test it.
    • Yeah, the thread is only nearly 20 years old.
    • Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!
