Thanks a lot for your responses :happy:

I have another question now.... When the time comes I will buy another R33, but the other day I was brousing the J-SPEC Imports website and came across some really nice cheapish r32 GTR's with around 60,000kms. Do you guys have any reasons why you would choose one over the other given the chance?? 32 is older but it's a GTR and I really like 33's so not sure.....

Cheers

haha i still have no idea what that sticker is, half the people i ask say its when you should and the other half say its when its done.

As for 32 gtr or 33 i'd say 33 just for the fact that despite the sheer sex of a 32 gtr, they are old cars. Get a 33 GTR, best of both worlds and then some :happy:

my sticker has the kms when the belt was changed written on it, not when it is going to need to be changed

the silver sticker is like a proper printed factory sticker with a line of Jap then underneath it has 100,000kms and more Jap...

are you saying yours has like 96,842kms or something like that instead? Or do you mean there's a different handwritten sticker there?

the sticker is simply there so to be written on when the car has had it's timing belt changed/100,000km service. I would not be buying a car that has no sticker on there as why would you remove it unless it has done >100,000km's/had it's timing belt already replaced...

Steve,

If you get a bad example of an R32 GTR it will cost you large amounts of money for repairs... GTR's are always going to be more expensive to modify, repair and maintain than GTST's as they have more to go wrong eg: 2 turbo's, 2 diffs, 4 axles, transfer case... etc.

GTST's arent as good as a race / drag car though for obvious reasons, also they are a lot more common than GTR's.

Bottom line... GTR is a better all round car, but its easy to get in way over your head money wise if you get a bad one.

GTST is cheaper, more common but still a great car for the price you pay.

Of all the R32's I see getting around I reckon it's 90% GT-R versus 10% everything else R32.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
