GTR

R32 - boxy looking thing with shite rims, easily fixed however. lighter/smaller than the others and more hardcore in its purpose, and of course the original. the cult hero. long live godzilla!

R34 - looks the best by far, interior + technology much better. a bit too pricey for me still, but def worth it if i could afford it.

R33 - average in every department compared to the other two. still a mean car, but doesnt stand out.

GTST

R33 - sleek, stylish (with a kit). IMO the best shape GTST, easily modified, lots of aftermarket support, best bang for your buck.

R34 - not a fan, less aftermarket support, my choice if i wanted to keep one stock.

R32 - hate the styling, but great handling. poxy RB20 lets it down a lot, not as tough as R33. drop a RB25 in and it might go hard, but it still looks like a bag of ass.

how can you guys NOT love the R33 GTR??!

sorry i think they're one of the better looking gt-r's

they're big, hulky, nice wing... then again i'm a fan of eclectic styling

my other favourite gt-r is the kenmerri skyline

how can you HONESTLY say that these are not beautiful cars??

Ultimately I wanted a R34 GTR. Looks the most bad ass and tuff out of all.

Latest technology and a lot more refined car.

But I am very impressed with the R32 GTR. It too can look very tuff and hold an aggressive stance and is the orginal Godzilla.

Raw power performance.

R33 GTR, bit on the chubby side LOL! But still capable of performing very well and looking good.

R35 gtr> R31 Silouette>R33gtr>r32gtr>r32gtst>r33gtst>r34gtt>R35 (those non turbo things)>r34gtr......

I think the r34 gtr was one of the more uglier looking lines from the outside, sure there good cars performance and interior, but id rather the look of a black r34gtt instead, ultimately i love the gtr r35 and the old skool r31 gts.......

but im still happy with the look of my r33 gtst series 2 with gtr front.... just took this pic now

The gtr range is all good to me: it brings out the best in some people.

Stop at a traffic light or pertrol station or maccas and you may end up having a conversation with a complete stranger.

Many times ive had a smile, a chat bout cars, even dedicated v8 crowd will wanna have a chat about turbo engines.

Alot of people dont like the r33 gtr but i like it, its kinda more grown up. Jst like a conservatively dressed female that bends over and you notice her lower back tattoo; might as well be a bullseye

R35 is not a skyline.

while it may be an a stonkingly good car, it doesnt have an RB, doesnt have manual box, is designed to be difficult to modify, and looks hideous. im glad its as fast as it is, no doubt due to the paddle shift etc, but im sorry i just dont like it.

+1 to R34 z-tune. best car EVER.

You overlooked the main reason we don't like it......

can't afford one :D

Lets be honest here. all the skylines/GTR's are bashed with an ugly stick compared to the true beauties of the car design world.

Z-tune is a good car to drive no doubt but when it comes to it's looks.. what is it they keep saying at the moment ?

Lipstick on a pig :)

I've owned a few GTR's GTST's of differing types and I've also owned a 1977 Volvo station wagon with a V8 in it at the same time. So I am afraid with tastes like mine the skyline/gtr is guilty by association. ;)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
