Hi guys just need some advice.

I used to own a R33 GTS-4 (non turbo) loved it but just got over it and changed to a diffrent car.

Now about to get off my Ps and want to go back to the skyline.

So my common question is R33 GTR or a R34 GTT?

Also does the GTR cost more to maintain as it is the premium car? sorta like a clubsport compared to an SS with maintenance costs?

What sort of power am i looking at with a R33GTR + 5k worth of mods? as apposed to R34 GTT + 5K of mods?

Any advice and comments would be great!

Thanks.

GTR is and always will be better than a GTT, Im kicking myself that I got a R33 GTS-T when in hindsight I should have got a R32 GTR, The 33 has cost me about 35k so far and I wont get rid of it yet as Ive invested to much and if I was to sell it its just another 33 which costs around 10_15k.

A very good R33 GTR can be had for <30k, Not sure on 34GTTs as Im not interested in them.

And yes Im still thinking about a R32 GTR to drive on the streets.

they both cost the same to service .

what do you want to do with your car?

do you want a 34 with big fag nuts wheels and gay interior and that shit to roll round the streets with the mad blow off noises or do you want a gtr to do track days in ?

find a really good nearly stock GTR R32 , but it really depends if you want a semi modern interior get the R34 gtt the R33, 32 is lame but the GTR performance will crush a R34 GTT, if i could have sex with mine i would , bought mine for 25k and spent another 8k changing timing belt , steel turbos to replace ceramic , 1 expensive knock sensor (biatch) ,replaced ALL suspension bushes , HKS exhaust to replace stock , track tyres and other little general things now its a solid unit , im gettin horny just talkin about it .

Agree with Mark.

Think of it this way...

If you buy an R33 GT-R and run it like an R34 GT-T, it won't cost any more to maintain than a GT-T.

If you upgrade, then it can be a different story. Talk to Satanic if you're thinking of a GT-T and want to upgrade good and proper.

The secret is to buy a great one in the first place. Preferably a GT-R.

At inspection, bring along your brains trust; with each person having a checklist.

At the other end of your time spectrum, the GT-R can reward you with less depreciation.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
