Nah... mate of mine got an S15, and seriously you'd be happy with either cars - they're both very good cars. But I find the 34 more of a livable day to day... I often carry alot of gear, and passengers, plus I prefer a 6 cylinder.

Has the S15 got harder suspension? I do believe they are a more 'fun' car than a Skyline. Just not as roomy. If you can call any Skyline coupe roomy.

Probably a little bit firmer, but both were an equally soggy stock set up. Might be a little more fun to throw around the S15 I must admit, the seating position is also lower on the S15. But the Skyline is does feel alot roomier - the S15 felt a little claustrophobic to me, the interior space was probably on par or less than my previous car which was an N13 Exa.

I'd have to agree with andz69 though. If i were in your position, i'd keep the 05 wrx - they're nice rides and you won't see much performance advantages going to either the S15 or the R34 gtt. Get a GTR if you really wanna trade up.

If you like AWD keep the rex, you will probably be quicker in it because of this. If you want RWD (or IMO a real sports car) test drive the two and then decide. I use to have an JDM s15 and picked up a 33 4 days ago, i'm still deciding which one i like better. The skyline is better day to day though for sure, but the great ocean road will be the test.

Also the JDM s15 had extra 30kw, factory boost gauge, digital climate control, rear wiper, folding mirrors, different badging, different colored interior trim, no gay reflectors on the rear bar, different tail lights, xenon headlights, and a 180km/h speedo. There may be some other minor ones.

I'm sick of it...

i might regret it in the future, but meh...i wanna do what my heart tells me to do.

And do all S15's come with xenons? I thought the GTT comes with Xenons as well.

Does he GTT have climate control or is it just AC?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
