The only thing I have against them is the leg room in the back and in the boot. They are very shallow in the boot, but gives you a good excuse not to have more then two ppl in the car. I've never had any issues with mine and to me its always being a little different them others, even though they are now getting popular. The wife has a 33 4 door and they have a bit more room in them. Makes them a better practical 'family car'. Either way I love them.

I love mine. The only thing I regret is getting one with a sunroof. I'm 6 foot 5 and am a little cramped for head room as u lose 1 3/4 inchs with a sunroof. Otherwise it is so handy not having to get out to let rear passengers exit.

Oh, and finding body kits is hard aswell as new rear taillights. I love the LED taillights.

I've got a r33 four door, after owning one I find it better balanced for drifting an jus in general that a coupe, I think that the r32 is pretty much the same wheel base an has the same interior space, but I think they are mint.....go the four door"s !!!!

Yeah man, 4 doors are great. The one i had was extremely spacious and the only reason i got rid of it was to jump into a manual, and now i have a GTR.

@ Brendan. Your a lucky mofo man, id kill for one D:

needs rb26 love though.

Another up is you can pick up r32 4 doors cheaper then coupes generally ;)

only other reason i got a 4 door is because i didnt like the thought of having the put down the seat to let people out XD

they are extremely cramped in the back but thats not my problem haha :)

there is also alittle bit more head room, only like a cm or two but its better then nothing haha

parts are difficult to get sometimes but overall its a good car

on the up you see less 4 doors around so itll look abit more unique then skylines already are....

but good luck getting a manual haha

it basically comes down to taste

i personally like the tail lights but some dont

so go with whatever you think its your car :(

As above :(

Not much more leg room and you only get an extra 10mm headroom or so. Sunroof models + stock seats can be awkward for us non-Japanese people...I'm 5"8 and my head touches the roof on my Ceffy :)

Legroom is pretty much nil...with 2 people in the car you'll have the seats further back, but you can still sit comfortably with the seat forward and (just) enough legroom in the back for passengers.... again, Jap cars made for Jap people or similar sized people...they're practical if you're planning on having a second passenger semi-frequently...but if its a constant thing, you'd want a big comfy sedan, with stiff suspension and a pair of balls...like a Q45 ;)

4 doors are awesome i got a 34 4door, it is awesome apart from it being auto....but with teh tiptronic i can pretend to have a manual lololol. um yeah man get a 4 door, they just look different to the usual 2 doors u see all the time. not that thats a bad thing though :)

    • Had a go at the stuck crush tube this afternoon. Tried things like grips and a chain wrench first but wouldn't just twist straight off. So got to work with a drill. Started small and kept a depth stop on to make sure I didn't drill into the bolt. Made a line of drill holes all the way up and enlarged them. Then a combination of chisel and Dremel to split it all the way up. Levered the split to get oil in there and eventually it gave a bit while levering. Worked it back and forth with loads more oil till it was spinning freely, then with grips I could work it downwards and off. And no significant damage to the bolt (not by me anyway - just the 27 years of rust)
    • Well, I'm tired. I'm tired because about 4PM yesterday, before today's appointment someone immediately bought my bumper. They couldn't get it any other day as they're on the way back to NSW. So I had to do that big GTR conversion I had been planning. Unfortunately, the information on SAU about what you need and how this is done is incomplete. So what should be a simple bolt on affair, yeah, it's not. Did you know if you use all GTR items the bonnet won't close? This little manuever sent me into about 1am the night before trying to dodge a way to get it closed. I will have to revisit this in the next few days  - or maybe not, I may let a body shop figure it out. It all needs to come up and my motivation to pull the bumper off is low. It also seems to hit things in the bay where the GTT bonnet didn't. Yes I used 100% new OEM GTR items. Today, I had the joy of driving to the dyno looking like this: Given I had roughed in the fuel and given sensible but pretty conservative timing, I didn't really bet on having the car drive out any real difference than when it drove in. Sadly due to a miscommunication and laptop fun and games (and almost bricking the dongle, prayers and firmware updates indeed), I ended up using HP Tuner credits to licence the car that was already licenced. So in the end my laptop was used. It turns out my butt dyno is still well calibrated after all this time. The 325kw was on 74% Ethanol, the 313kw line was on 98. The other line is the 'before' line which was 281kw. While the numbers are pretty low, they're pretty in line with what you'd expect. Even if US dynos bump the whole result up about 50KW, gaining 10-15% is similar gains.  The curve of the cam is pretty much spot on with what was discussed as well. All this said, it still feels bad to not see the number you secretly want to see. Even if the car drove great beforehand, and I knew pretty confidently the car would drive out much the same way it drove in due to the nature of a wellish dialled in LS1 not gaining much if anything at all from being tuned from where it was. As expected, the car isn't particularly sensitive to running it at anywhere between 12.0 and 13.0 - And the initial timing at 20deg and 12.0 made 308KW. So 3 degrees of timing, and leaning it out to 12.7 for 5kw, anything above stopped giving any benefit until E85 (which has an additional 2 deg as before). Car itself behaved entirely fine. I found out that 100C = 1.15V! IAT at about 7pm was 19C. I might mess with the bonnet mounting.. but given the REO NEEDS TO BE CHOPPED TO FIT A GTR BAR this is possibly something I may leave gathering (more) dust until it returns to paint jail.
