Not sure which way to go. I'm interested in both of these

R34GT + Late model car etc (rare version available)

R34GT - non I can think or am aware of.

R33GTR V-Spec + well it's a GTR & V-Spec! already modified

R33GTR V-Spec - modified, possible issues later on & insurance. Older car

Both similar price, both similar K's

Without being to specific or negative in respect to relevant members, I would appreciate any sugestions or opinions.

Thanks

I chose the 34 GTT myself, wanted something 'newer' in all respects of the word. I am paying 1,200 full comp with shannons. 33 GTR was a bit more expensive when I bought mine

newer engine, looks, styling, etc.

As Straight6 said "drive them both" :D and also look at them both inside and out!

Have fun.

if you're looking for a Skyline for the sake of it being new, get the R34 GTt, if you're more inclined to performance, go the R33 GT-R cos at the end of the day you still got the RB26 under the hood.

.......or better yet the R34 GT-R:burnout:

i would go the R33 GT-R VSPEC.:D i might be the only one saying this...but i prefer the R33 shape to the R34 shape(considering both are GT-Rs). Especially a S2 R33 GT-R VSPEC in midnight purple with white RAYS TE37s:p

I did the same - R34 GTT vs R33 GTR. At the end of the day - I chose the GTR. Why? A GTT, although newer and very nice - will never be a GTR. I didn't want to spend lots of money on a car that I wish was something better.

Just my 2c :D

Either way - you can't loose.

Oh - Aerograce: Like this?

I've seen 33 GTST's in Midnight Purple but not sure if they are authentic factory coloured or R customs. There is like a 40th Anniversary Edition (might B Tommy Kaira) of the R33 that i've only seen in White and the purple so maybe it isnt a GTR exclusive........Oh and just to reinterate - GTR all the way baby!!!!!!!

:drooling: :) Beautiful, beautiful car...

hey james, were u driving down St. Kilda rd towards flinders st and like 4pm Fri arvo, heard a nice exhaust walking down Dorcas, turn around and see an awesome midnight purple R33 with what looked like bronze rims cruising along. Def GTR too, i assum that was urself??

so is ur pride and joy (no, not the Lada :D) all back in working order?? been quite a while hasn't it?

anyways, i'm sure a R34 GT-T would be cheaper too, whilst i'd prob go with the R33 GTR V-Spec if the price wasn't a problem, but if it was i'd prob go with the GT-T

cheers.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
