All the talk of interiors being dated is amusing as it is all very easily rectified. These cars generally are for modifiers and things such as new seats, whether they be Recaros or Brides are relatively inexpensive.

Most people change their steering wheels, gear knobs and add new electronic monitoring equipment, new stereos and generally make the driving the car as enjoyable as possible. So the fact that people are saying the interior is dated is unimportant, in the end it's all pretty bad because it is all pretty much plastic anyway.

So the only difference is whether you buy plastic from the early 90s or the early 2000s.

The whole dash/carpet/seats/everything inside the 34 is nicer than the 33, which is 100 times better than the 32.

Your R32 with a dildo gearknob, 15 colourful gauges, shiney plastic pedals, interior neons, and fag racing steeringwheel still has a crap dash.

That is the whole point i am making everything in the f**kin thing can be changed, but the fact remains, its still a cheap plastic interior.

Dildo gear knobs are not required neither is the other shit but if you dont like the standard gearknob or pedals they can be easily changed with items from lovely companies like Nardi.

The interior of the car is the part where you spend most of your time so you may aswell make it suit you.

That doesn't even make sense, it's more outdated because it's more common wtf?

The original post asked for information about YOUR car not what looks better or comments on cars you haven't owned, so many dumb kunce on here.

of course it makes sense something you see more often you get bored of a bit like your misses , R33s are uggs :D

Irrelevant, still funny though.

:ermm:

Interior? I'm too busy watching the road.

I was comparing performance stock R33 for stock R32...

Some people like a decent interior mate, that's why they make luxury cars...

Mate, doesn't it come down to the drive at the end of the day, or what you want out of it?

My silvia has f**k all dash, its got a few gauges.. But its still fun as f**k to drive. It might not have the interior gadgetry from hell or 5 buttons to turn the engine on but it still has aircon and other basic human necessities inside it.

Too busy watching road ftw.

Lol this thread has gone to shit.

Why don't people just list the things they like about their car and the things they don't. Not the things they don't like about other cars, thats your own opinion, the guy can decide for himself what he likes about looks.

Like i think the 32 dash looks far better than the 33 dash. Incredibly irrelevant for me as far as choosing a car goes. But thats me, other people clearly think differently

I agree who cares about interiors ! Lets try again

I like the r32 because of the sleek low look of it ! :ermm:

r33 its buffed muscle look (fatness) !

r34 looks like a sleek wedge going quick even when its standing still !

The 32 seems to be lacking in decent bodykits...or at least that is my perception.

your not wrong thats because the R32s styling means that only some bodykits will suit it which is pretty much the same with R34s. you have to pick the right bodykit for these 2 or you will ruin the styling of the car. why do BN or similar Drift kits look good on R32s and R34s?, its because the kit is sharply styled with pointy ends and is a lot more straight than curves think NISMO Z-TUNE with its front fenders or any skyline drift cars. making a boxy bodykit to match the car's bodylines is a lot difficult than most think. R33 kits are easier to find because their rounded shape makes it easier for bodykit companies to make up one that matches the bodylines of the R33 where as for the R32 and R34, their boxy shape means that making a kit to match is a lot of trial and error that very few companies can get right. even the R32 GTR with a Veilside EVO 3 Widebodykit we have for sale looks weird because the lower half of the body is widened but the top half is left untouched so the proportion is uneven. curved cars are easier to work with thats what ive noticed

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
