here is s14 kouki http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/imag...mp;fr=yfp-t-501

s14 zenki http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/imag...;js=1&x=wrt

Zenki means before kouki means after.Just like the r33 gtst's you have type 1 Zenki and type 2 Kouki

will probably be years away yet and here's hoping they put more thought into how it looks as it will have to be something special for a comeback....much like the new GTR

I hope they don't turn it into a heavy lunker like they have with the new skylines and z.

The Skyline and FairladyZ, as grand tourers, been heavy (for Japanese sports cars of their time period) for quite some time. Ironically the S30 240Z is lighter than the S10 Silvia but, as the cars were positioned in the model line up, the FairladyZ grew up.

The Z33 weighs as much as the Z32 2 seater does, which given the decade between them and OEMs' tendency to make newer cars bigger and heavier than their predecessors isn't a bad thing. And 1500kg for a GT back in 2003 wasn't that bad. It weighed more than the S15, DC5R and T230 but it's also a lot more comfortable and well appointed.

The Skyline was in the same vein, but with even more of a touring and less of a sports focus than the Z it picked up more weight to accommodate the better sound dampening and rear seats.

The Z34 is meant to be lighter again, with a smaller overall size as well as more aluminium in it's construction. I've had a look at the V36 and while it has picked up weight over the V37 it also feels a lot more solid and quality.

i think the s16 in the first link looks alright... the one in the magazine...

the concept one of the last link is from 2006 and it looks super ugly, its completely different to the first link with the pick on a magazine and the second link that is the drawing....

the car will sell for 20K in japan but will be private import to aus for about 40k llol

I don't see why not.

The NA 2.0L powering the old Sport Clio was a gem. It pulled pretty hard below 5500RPM, until whatever cam magic it does kicks in and has the thing scream all the way to redline. It's a full production engine that shits all over the SR20DE powering a limited edition Autech S15.

The FI 2.0L powering the Sport Megane is a pretty nice engine too. 165kW isn't much by modern standards but it a very light tune and will easily make more power.

yea i read about the possible renault engine. because In 1999, Nissan entered an alliance with Renault S.A. of France, which owns 44.4% of Nissan as of 2008. Nissan is among the top three Asian (also known as the Japanese Big 3 Automakers) rivals of the "Big Three" in the U.S. Currently they are the third largest Japanese car manufacturer. It also manufactures the Infiniti luxury brand.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
