So if you had the option of either for the same price. what would you choose and why? i can't decide which looks the best and i also like drifting and never drove an awd so i don't know how they go about drifting lol.

But a GTR is a dam GTR!!!!!!

Kit of choice personally for either is the doLuck kit.

Quick link:

Same car??? Yeah... right!!!!

chassis stiffness

width of wheelbase (about 11cm wider)

ability to produce 260rwkw on the stock computer

better seats/driving position

brakes

10 min to drop the front shaft for RWD fun but it will slide fine with the right driver in AWD

put the shaft back in for AWD

Feeling stoopid yet or do I have to continue?

personally i think the 33GTR looks horrible...great perfomance car, but yeh, i think they look hell shit.

id get a 34gt-t and chuk on a gtr kit.

Yer but you like 32's.. nuff said.. (just joking :) )

33GTR is a far superior car to the 34gtt..

but if all you're going on is looks.. i think you need to do more research into what each car is capable of

as to the 33gtr and 34gtt are basically the same car... not even going to dignify with a response

Looks aside, no actually, the only people who think a 32 looks better than a 33 are only compensating for the fact they can't afford the newer model. I only have 3 R33 coupes and 5 cars all up so it isn't a matter of what I can afford.

My outboard on my 6m boat produces more than most RB20's.

hmm, thats interesting, cause both myself and my mate had enuf money for a 33, and we still purchased 32's :)

...but if ur happy with how the 33 looks thats all that matters.

why oh why do these threads continue to pop up.....

First ask yourself what you want from the car....if its for a show-pony or drifter go the 34gtt as it'll be a lot cheaper....if you want motorsport go the gtr....

Fair enough ask peoples opinion (but this has been done before) but at the end of the day its personal choice :)

Chassis rigidity of a R34 GTT is greater than that of a R33 GTR according to Nissans Sales Brochure.

You just popped up one of the nagging stats about this decision. Because i' read the 34's chassis was made 53% stiffer than the R33. And R33's are already stiffened up from the 32 so i'm not really sure if all that added stiffness will make much difference.

plus i know the GTR of ANY model is stiffer than that of a GTS T/ GTT. I was talking to a comp drifter last night about this and he rekons the GTT simply because it's cheaper to mod and less things can go wrong etc etc.... but i'm still thinking GTR!! (he currently uses an R33 for his drifting)

Can anyone clarify about the 33 GTR stiffness? people who have experience in driving GTR's would be the best reply!! cheers.

You should get the GT-T. I would hate to see another GTR ruined with a horrible body kit. Woops i mean "fully sick" body kit...

Seriously what do you care if the GTR is stiffer than a GT-T if you're main focus is what pieces of plastic you can glue on to a perfectly decent looking already car.

Likewise, and I opted for a RWD car :) it's not so much about being quick (although it will get there eventually :)), it's about having fun! Personally, I prefer RWD 32's :P

Anyway you have to really decide what you want to do, which is why I have the GTR33 as a daily driver, the GTS25t with 26/30 for track, the auto GTS25t for zapping around the city, the Soarer for cruising long distances and towing the boat and the Lynx for a workhorse to cart and carry. That way there are no compromises.

Anyone want to buy a car? :D

Seriously what do you care if the GTR is stiffer than a GT-T if you're main focus is what pieces of plastic you can glue on to a perfectly decent looking already car.

The looks of the car are at the bottom of my priorities (both look awsome and have there strongpoints imo). i'm more intersted in finding out which has the best base for performance/fun/daily driver. and if the 34 has a better designed chassis the 33 can never match up to that (i will not be fitting roll cages).

At this stage i think a top performance factory built car will always win. i do not believe the 54% stiffness increase could of been warranted so much.

Also is the fact that to get a GTT/GTS-T moving at better performance, major mods need to be carried out. this isn't a problem untill the boys in blue decide to check your car out and send you to regency...

At least a GTR comes stock with basically all the performance mods that you would add to a GTT.

As for the 'fully sick' bodykits, i think a good bodykit fitted correctly doesn't ruin any skyline it's when you dump the suspension down so low that your wheel sinks under the fenders that it looks fked.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
