33 gtr drifting? awesome documentary :D

gtrs in my understanding are fkin king of tracks (bathurst anyone?)

infact..

32gtr should have won due to OWNING bathurst and getting kicked out lol

but 34gtr is i reckon the hottest sexiest beast of the skylines

R32 GTR should have been in that documentary, because as a sports car, its the best one out of all of them. Having said that, I chose the 33 out of reliability (not as old), looks, and price. Still, would take a 33 GTR over a 32 GTR.

In the end, its personal opinion. Everyone's is different

cant believe some of the cars in the top 10, miata @ 2??? 911 in first?? funny how they said the skyline is tunable from the factory, it isnt, but they had a power FC in there, so it becomes adjustable!! wat a bunch of idiots!! i would of said GT40 for first, because of racing pedigree!!

yeah r33 totally suck

i mean,

who would want 500cc more engine capacity

larger standard turbo

tougher gearbox

bigger brakes

battery in boot

total peices of crap. burn them alive I say.

I just can't seem to figure out why there are more on the roads then the god-like 32. :)

Those facts are great.

The R33's turning circle is double the R32, and with its extra 500c and bigger turbo and more awesomez it only gets to 100 0.32 seconds faster, and down the quater mile 0.4 seconds ahead of the smaller, weaker, not as good, obsolete R32.

With all that aside, the list is a fail, not for the R33, just for the rest of the list.

Doesn't the RB20 run 10 psi boost vs 7 psi on the RB25?

The 33 GTST is basically the 'drift' version of the 33 GTR. :D

Turning circle is crucial for Taxis. :P

Steering lock is also good for DRIFT, but hey, with 4 doors, you get LOOOOTS of lock, awesome for getting the cutomer to the airport on-time.

Don't you smoke crack?

Dunno what R32's run, Cefiro's run lower boost from the factory, so I dunno, somebody with a decent Skyline can answer that question for you.

Lack of boost is combatted by extra displacement, newer technology, oh, and those great turbo's and injectors and ECU and all the other goodies R33s have which R32s don't.

This thread is ammusing. Waves of brainless sheep praising their cars because some b-grade footage said they're awesome. Not exactly anything new though.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
