tossing up whether to buy a 34 gtr or 33 gtr

i love the 33 shape but i have heard the 34's are better?

i dont know much about gtr's. whats the go?

this car wont be modified much apart from a ecu and exhaust and some mild boost.

Definitely the 34. Nothing wrong with the 33 but after how many years of driving one do you want to step into the seat of yet another 33. It will be a completely different car, but most of the interior will be the same. A 34 will look and feel different and new, plus it'll look nicer to a lot of your car ignorant friends. Besides, apart from the recent R35, the R34 has been the ultimate car for so many Skyline (and other car) drivers, you'll be the envy of everyone on the road.

I like the R34 better, looks wise.

Better as in... All depends, handling / power / overall refinement.

Things are inproved in the R34 at the same time more buttons to push. Overall same car, engine, but depending on which level of model.

Ok Stock R33 GTR vs Stock R34 GTR = Same with a few extra inbuilt features.

R34 got electronic LCD multifuntion display unit / R33 got analog gauges.

The LCD can show the G-Force the car is pulling and there is a lap timer, a rev light, all the Oil Temp / Oil Pressure / Boost Gauge / Water Temp Gauge / Fuel Injector Gauge / Exhaust Temp Gauge etc... Do you need all these? Its all just inbuilt accessories. Not complaining if I had it but just more things to look out for.

Unitll you get to the V-Spec II N1 / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec, there will be slight differences in engine, suspension and revisions on the car.

I drove a 303kw GTR R33 then went for a ride in a 450 kw GTR R33 with all the sweet bolt on parts... Yeah its faster / better than a R34, but I could do the same and bolt on all the seet mods in the GTR R34 then that will / could be better... All depends on whats done on the car and personal prefferance.

But I must say sitting in the R34 I was very impressive. The Dashboard and the whole interiour is very refined as aposed to the R33.

Personaly I like the R34 with its TUFF Killer looks but it just cost more than my GTR R32.

GO THE GTR R34!!! :)

no dout BNR34 is a awesome car, from stock it has the looks and performance. it's a beast!!!

current mods to my car is:

Highflow cat

Nismo exhaust

Cam Gears

Nismo panel filter(factory box)

1 bar boost

exedy clutch

Dyno tuned with 98 octane fuel

Pumps out 278kw to the ground, which with a proper launch beats a F430 by 3 car lengths and a gallardo by 3.5 car lengths by 3rd gear. car runs perfect and reliable.

get the BNR34 well worth the extra dosh.

BNR34 = R34 GTR. oops left it out i'm using a Apexi Power FC. Yeah it was pretty cool running those 2 cars, my friend was shadered that he lost to me in both his cars. both cost about half mil each on the road. bloody deafening with both cars redlining every gear.

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
