its a downgrade in model, theres no denying that. So for you 33 haters, SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

+1 for 33 haters... some people prefer the OLDER shape... so what! Is it newer? no. did it come out after the R33 shape? no. is it an upgrade? no. there ARE those of us that prefer the R33 shape out there peoples!

..............Am I in a Skyline enthusiast forum or an "I hate R33's" forum? :(

i dont understand your reasoning kahli,you said it just gets damaged too much at school by jelous people,yet you have bought another skyline....and running costs,lol minimal difference if any between them.

is it just me or does this not make sence to anyone else ether? good on you for buying another one tho but i just dont understand the reasoning behind it.

I'd just say, an opinionated skyline enthusiast forum!

I like all Skylines (even the R30!) but I preffer the 32/34 shape... and so did Nissan! :P jk jk

Stagea's are heaps cheap now, like 10k for a series 1 rb25det auto awd.

awesome upgrade from a 33-32-s15.

I'll too have a pod to go to a new home next week, a K&N pod filter for a RB25det either stock or z32 afm

lol yes very openly opinionated

I definitely wouldnt mind removing my K&N pod too - less psh psh but the intercooler pipe is in the way of the snorkel for the stock air box dang it :(

no, a downgrade would be going the turbo model down to a NA model.

this is a change in year of car so the term "downgrade" is invalid, especially when your moving to a lighter better performing car :(

You tell em Vu.

Damn 33 haters.

Incorrect, if i went from a 32 to a 33, you'd say "nice upgrade". She has downgraded in years, theres no argument about it.

lol i would say "ahhhh why would you do such a thing!??"

downgraded in years yes, but you didnt say that at the start :(

lol u guys are trippers.

gernerally 33's are better.. and not because of age, they got better brakes, suspension, larger engine (i wouldnt say better than RB20, but if u like less revs and more torque), upgraded interior, generally newer and longer lasting parts. only thing the 33 has going against it is the looks, looks very out dated.

anywho after all of that, i would still go a 32 :blink:

oh.. and just coz a car is newer doesnt make it better. thought some of u guys were smarter than that lol. i mean why get a 32 gtr.. get a vx commo, its newer and must be better right :P

Edited by steveP

LOL at steve :blink:

And +1 Jack...it doesn't make sense. If it was me i guess i'd just keep it till i could get the S15 right? And anyways. People at school are just jealous and they always will be whether its a 33, 32 or an S15. Just cos all they can afford is a commonwhore :P

i have a hks mushroom pod and with a few more psi than standard i feel it's pulling more air in than the apexi i had on! getting a flutter can also be done with an aftermarket bov, just tighten the spring a bit and you get the flutter at the same time a bit of air escaping! but even now i'm running the standard plumb back on my intercooler pipe because quite frankly it's been better than any bov's i've put on!

how come so much hatred for 33's? yes it's a whale but it still managed to lap the nurbuurgring 20 seconds faster than a r32! :blink:

ohh god

this arguement is going nowhere

it comes to personal preference

going from 32 to a 33 is an upgrade

going from 33 to a 32 is a downgrade

simple as that

Here we go!

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
