Japanese Muscle Car

All Aggressive!

Stream line with a tough look!

IMO The shape of the head lights made it loose it's "Angry" look and went an all rounder everywhere else.

Yet the R33 GTR can still pull off a strong stance.

Just got to do it right.

they all look great!

i prefer the 33 interior/dash over the 32 by far. and thats a deal breaker for me.

back when i had little knowledge of skylines, and no bias, i looked inside a 32 and went 'eeew dude, no way'.

but........ now i appreciate them all.

Owned a R34 GTR VSPEC gunmetal grey with garrett gt2860-5 turbos, power FC....greatest car ever.

Sold that and after a year....got a R33GTR VSPEC. Great in it's own way.....R32GTR maybe a little dated now.

And came with twin hi mounts....HKS To4R. HKS forged internals.

All are nice and most people end up buying 33 over 32 mainly because of age. Like someone mentioned before the interior of the 32 is a huge turn off. And 33 is seriously the best value for money with the brembos, revised gearbox etc.

Anyway I'm not a huge fan of the 33 to begin with but it grew in me after owning one.

Never owned a 33, but in the end, there is nothing wrong with the 33GTR.

I've seen some beauties, just have to be careful what wheels you fit due to there being so much room in there!lol.

yes it was GOD_Speed

i dunno if it's terry's son though. no clue!!!

but yes - that IS the GTR i was talking about! good spotting... that is probably up there with being one of my favves on this site!

If we take the GTR guise out of all of these models. Does it change your views?

The most common comment in here is "it's still a GTR" the differences in styling, performance and features greatly differs when you consider the GTS-T etc platforms.

well ive owned a 33 gtst and now a 32 gtst... and for me.. the 33 was the better "car". i used it on the weekends... and it was a nicer place to be and the nicer car to drive than the 32.. everything was much cleaner and tighter.. and i felt less embarassed driving it places.. it was epic clean, sounded great and looked great and i didnt have to worry about it, reliablity wise.. all the buttons worked.. all the lights lit up.. it was great.

r34 gtt's look rubbish... hate everything about them... love the 34 gtr's though.

i have a 32 now to make a track car.. but if i was going to have a weekend car again i would be going the 33 route.. gtr or gtst.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
