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

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.

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.

      Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?

      Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS

      Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
