thanks for the responses guys, i think i can rule out the 33 and the m3....

link got me thinking- what about the jz powered cars? supra?

anyways, looks like i got some test driving to do!

i used to have a supra, but dont waste your time on a non turbo one. go the tt for sure if thats want u want. id take my old supra over my gtr any day mate. but make sure that u get at least a 95 model and the upgrade the front and rear head lamps to the us spec clear glass shit. much better look imo

TT supra. decent powered s15. 34gtt. IMO...

32gtr would be great.. however unless you are absolutly obsessed with them, then changing from a 32 gtst to the 32gtr wouldnt be a completely different change in a sense. (obviously its different but.. yeah, u know), for the amount your spending i would get a nice newer car. just a few options that im sure you prob seen.

R34 GT-T all the way! Definately my favourite of all the cars I've driven.

My motto is: always buy the newest car out of your options list. It will last you longer, be more practical, and be cheaper to maintain.

The only reason why id prefer the 32gtr over the 34gtt is because i would be spending upwards of 25k, the 32 its is going to be fairly well-modded compared to the 34 which will probably only have a few mods ie - exhaust, fmic, pod.

Obviously its more cost beneficial to have bought a car with mods done than without and having to buy and get them installed yourself...

So yeah, still unsure, im going to set-up a few test drives and see what feels best. Then if i still like both the 32 and 34 equally, ill just wait till i find a really good example of either one, then buy it! :P

personally i'd pick the 33 gtr but considering u dont like the 33's shape and the 32 is too old (and smelly)..uve been in it for 5 damn long years, why would u want to go back in it.. GTR or not :laughing-smiley-014:

34 GTT is the one imo

new car ftw!

sorry just clarifying ive had my license for 5 years but only had my 32 for 1 and a half

ive owned all the cars mentioned other than the m3.

in my opinion if your after pure performance/daily driver I would go the R33 gtr..they have a smoother power delivery than the 32r, look much newer inside, quicker responding altessa, more room, stiffer chassis, brembo brakes, better seats, airbag/s...

R34 is nice, feels refined, nice and smooth....but you will want a gtr (I did).

I preferred my s15 (jap spec) over the 34.. looked better IMO and went harder/handled better than the gtt (although not a fan of the sr20 sound).

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
