Do you know what I'm really annoyed about? :angry:

I can find a 1/18 Model of an

R32 GT-R +

R34 GT-R +

R35 GT-R...

But for the life of me, I cannot find a (metal) model of an R33 GT-R !

Only Tamiya (plastic)

AND THAT STINKS!!!!!!!!!!! :down:

NO JUSTICE!!!!!!!!!!! :D

yeah i voted: for the skyline that has the best balance between curves and straight lines = R33

R32 GTR all the way. You could dangle the keys to any other car in front of me,and I will grab the 32 everytime. Theres just something about that late 80's shape and feel that has won me. I appreciate all the others....but R32 GTR is my Dream car

Ive always loved the sexy curves of the R33 GTR.. but im a series 3 kinda guy - they have to have the lower front lip and the series 3 xenons. :angry:

34 GTR comes a close second, i was recently considering buying a sexy looking bayside blue R34 GTR but couldnt get my head around the slight boxyness of its ass, still considering if its the next car for me. But other than that, damn are they sexy or what! :D

Very tough choice indeed. I love the shape of every model ranging from the 32-34, but I had to go with the 34. Regardless to say, any tough line i see on the street will drop my jaw :D

i like the r33's with a gtr or 400r front bar and an intercooler behind it, looks mean. However i dont like the standard r33's with the standard front bars, their ugly.

where are the dr30 and v35 and v36?

f**k them.

Where's the Hako?

Heres a little something to sway you guys just that little bit further in my direction.. hahah :down:

Yours is one of the tidiest I've seen, and one of the few that I don't instantly dislike (Wilch's being one of the others) but I'd still take an R32 or R34 over them.

I just wouldn't be emo about the looks if I did own yours.

    • Good tips, will get on those tomorrow. When doing the maintenance I did move a few of those connectors around, and things that are old tend to not like moving around. (Like me).
    • Don't try it. It will be shit. Better chance of damaging the engine than gaining any knowledge about the old one. Maybe, but unlikely, especially if the O2 sensor is working. You can use NissDataScan to look at the stock ECU.   Cleaning the AFM is seldom necessary and seldom helps. The R35 coil & loom conversion should eliminate dud coils or plugs. But as you still have misses - look to the plug where the coil loom connects to the engine loom, and the CAS plug. Need quality connections there. Also look to injector plugs. And the AFM plug while you're at it. Also look to whether your injectors are clean and flowing evenly. Get them out and onto a testbench.
    • Good to know, I feel like I am in for a rollercoaster ride that looks like a sine wave. 
    • You'll fit right in. Acceptance is the first step.
    • Hey folks. I've been lurking and browsing the forum for a while, since I got into my head that I wanted a skyline. Having purchased an overpriced completely stock GTT, (only "mods" it has is HKS pod filter and catback) now that it became legal in the US, it was all glorious and sututu noises here and there. But then I wanted to do things right and went to do basic maintenance. After all the fluids, filters done, I did the spark plugs, that's when the problems started.. First the car started spluttering at around 4.5k RPM. Which I gapped down the new plugs and that solved the sputter there, but the car now always misfires at idle with pops when lifting off and shifting 2nd to 3rd. Similar to the issues in this recent thread. I've been banging my head against the wall, reading the threads here and trying suggestions for a couple months now, so decided to start this one to explain exactly what I tried and what is going on. The symptoms of the issue: Idle and low revs misfiring intermittently. You can hear the exhaust tone change and the shakes on the shifter knob. It happens frequently, but doesn't seem to have a rhythm to it. Pops when backing off throttle. It pops and or burbles almost feels like it spits fire when it pops. (Happens mostly in 3rd gear at around 2k RPM). When under load and after 6k RPM, it also pops when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. There's a ticking noise at around 2k RPM in 2nd gear going downhill, seems unrelated though but I am out of educated and downright dumb guesses. Not noticeable lack of power when putting the car into load. The attempted diagnosis and solutions: Unplugging coils when the car is running This did nothing to change the idling and tone shift for every cylinder. Checking the exhaust headers with thermometer They all are within what I'd say it is margin of error of the laser thermometer New spark plugs Tossed two new sets, copper, iridium and using the old ones, still misfiring, even re gapped to 0.8mm, still same thing. MAF cleaned with the "specific" spray cleaner No changes in the issues what so ever. Brand new loom and r35 coil conversion (was going to add the r35 coils anyway) car runs arguably better, still misfires, but seems like does less frequently. Placebo? Code 21 now being thrown, thanks nissan gods. Removed the CAS to check the shaft for play or anything. CAS seems all fine, nothing that indicates any issue, visually speaking. Things to attempted next: Ordered a new MAF (chinesium from Amazon, to be able to return regardless of result). Fuel with proper gas, maybe it is this California water that they sell as gas that is to blame? Plugin the link ECU and check the info using the built in base map. Go back to BMW and eat my rob bearing breakfast without milky oil mixture.   Do any of you have experienced anything like this or have any suggestion?
