R32 Vs R33

[buckets]

hey SAUer's

Just thought id start a topic asking everyone which they believe is the better skyline.

I know overally the 34 is (newer, better parts etc) but as far the "oldies" go which is the better?

i was told (probably by a insecure source that the 32 is due to it being overall lighter, dispites

it's RB20 compared to the 33's RB25.

But the 33 was given more engine displacement due to more weight. so i ask the question,

Which overally (engine, maintenance, power and even fuel economy) is the best?

As in factory R32 vs factory R33.

Cheers

buckets out.

R32 with an RB25 + R33 5 Speed box

Which is better? That depends who's driving it and what its being used for. Looks are another thing.

the people who take personal stab at others are the problem.

im just curious, shouldnt matter what car i drive.

i wanted just genuine answers, for curiosity sake.

lol sorry mate new the skylines australia forum,

not many posts lol

hoping to have an r33 s2 under my belt in maybe about a month, hopefully less.

was just contemplating a 32, i love the shape of the 32 but the 33 is just newer and love

the interior.

just trying to find out peoples thoughts

[astrotristan]

ok mate,

this has been covered a few times - so itd b worth doing a search to hunt down other threads to get more info etc,

buuut my 2cents,

i have an r32 gtst with an rb20engine and box and a rb25turbo - and she goes sweet, slides easy

but if i had more cash i'd probs want an rb25engine and box,

so the bang for buck choice is probs the r33,

with the r33 u get the bigger engine, stronger box, bigger brakes, an anchor and a newer car

just depends what you are into buddy

32>33 imo

edit: heres one of the threads i was talking about buddy, have a read

clicky

ahh alright sweet

yeah man i love the 32's but the 33 just seems like an overall nicer car.

cheers for your thoughts man, if u got anymore keep them coming

can find a R33 Series B *boat* for less then 10g with all the fruits..

or a R32 with fruits for like 1.5x the price ?? :S

[scissored sil]

or... save yourself the hassle of a nissan that always breaks and buy something like a supra?

This coming from someone who has a s13, r32 and has had a good friend who had a 33 that constantly broke. *shakes fist*

[Skyrin3]

spend 13ish and get a 32 with a rb25 like i and otheres have said

[mitchy_]

31 with built 25 > 32 + 33

[maximumrpm]

r33 hands down

[Benzino33]

r33 hands down

+100

[Buzzn]

32 GTR is faster, R33's feel and look better.

Just pay a few more G's and buy my 34 GTT, fast smooth and sexy

31 with built 25 > 32 + 33

This thread makes baby jesus cry

I cant believe im going to reply in this... (cough)

Honestly, stock for stock, R32 GTS-t vs R33 GTS-t

The R33 is faster, smoother, stronger, better value for money, younger & better brakes

The R32 is more rigid, lighter & has a classic cult following

What im saying is they both have a place in the world for different reasons. Not all later models are better, but with Skylines they met what the market wanted in 1989 with the R32, then they met the market again in 1993 with the R33, cars are an evolution of what the target market wants... As such they met the market in 2007 with the R35GTR... Its all relivent...

Your choice, but for me it always comes down to age... Both are more than 10 years old now, some R32's are infact 20 years old this year...

But on a budget, id go for the youngest R33 you can afford (ie. Series 2) so your on the right track...
