I'll try and translate.

"Hey all,

I was recently in the market for an R34 or R32 GTR. I had a run in with the insurance company a lot because I was 19, so I went with the R34. ( :D ) So now I'm curious as to how a MY03 STI would go against the 34 GTR. My mates one is very fast, but I've never been in it. ( :banana: )

Cheers"

I still don't know what the second sentence was trying to say. :D

i ran this through babelfish and i got

"gday guys, i was gonna get a 32 or a 34 gtr (massive price difference) but the insurance companies wouldn't touch me with dog sh*t on a stick. I am now considering a My03 STI and wonder how much will it get bent over by a GTR. My mate has an MY03 STI and I think it is very fast but I wouldn't know because of the fact that he is my friend but he never lets me sit in his car because of a restraining order.

Cheers"

good old babelfish aye

Ok let me some this up, before you all start going ahead an do wat you have already done.

Wat i was saying was i am currently overseas, i was going to purchase a r32 gtr at 1 stage but thought it was a little to old so i stepped up to the r34 gtr. Recently i went home from being overseas for 4 months an asked the insurance company how much it would be to insure. (It was through the roof being 19, the "drop out" :banana: )

SO i went an had a look at some subarus my03 sti to be precise am became resonably interested because insurance was alot cheaper. SO i was wondering how they actually go?? My mate does own a MY02 sti but i have never been in it because (i got a restraing order slapped on me idiot) i left for overseas work last year in september so i never had the option to see wat it was like..

does that some it up, i was kinda in a rush last time so i cut it short.

"cheer"

A 19 yr old wanting to buy an R34 GTR....????Since when does working at McDonalds pay that sort of cash...?

He owns McDonalds! :laugh::glare:

Get the R34, not much of a fan of subies and if you where to get a STi I get an EVO IX / EVO X. But ehy if ya got the cash for the EVO go R34 GTR, they are getting cheaper in price.

Both are nice cars, STi will be easier to drive faster and won't cost as much to run/insure.

GTR is much easier to modify and are brilliant to drive hard... STi's are brilliant cars still. They have very different power deliveries. Go drive both and see what you prefer.

Dude, if you want to be taken seriously, it's a sad fact that these guys will tear you apart unless you use correct grammar and spelling. It hurts the head to try and read a poorly scrawled request and most people will just poke fun instead. Couple with that the fact that every other day someone is asking if this car will beat this one and "my mate's car does this" and you can understand where they are coming from. If you're not sure, just test drive both and decide after, someone else's opinion may not be your cup of tea anyway so it's best to find these things out for yourself.

my 2 cents.

Well said Zilch.

Cliffo - nearly every week there has been a "vs" thread started.

We are quite sick of it, so I guess this thread was looking like it was heading in that direction.

On topic, Id say drive both and go from there.

Theres most likely only 1 company to insure you, justcars cause of your age. get a quote from them before you buy to see if you really can afford, and justify buying that car.

My personal choice is the 34.

Mind you STi's are still a great car with great performance.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
