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That doesn't even make sense, it's more outdated because it's more common wtf?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

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
