wow, 164rwkw from a natro. must've had a bit of work done to it.

as for what to go, well don't pay too much attention to the kms on the clock as there is a very good chance that they are not genuine and the actual car has done much more. secondly, there is no M spec r33. you are actually refering to the type M (M spec is a version of the r34 GTR). pretty much every r33 GTS-T is a type M (with the exception of one of the models of the sedan), so don't bother only looking at cars that say type M in the description. if it is a gts-t then you can assume it's a type M. i know i'm beaing picky but too many (in fact most) people get this info wrong.

as for things to know about the r34, well a lot of parts will be common to both r33 and r34. for the parts that are different you shouldn't really find it any more difficult to find parts for either car.

as for which car to get, it really comes down to what you like the look of the most.

rb25neo is a much better engine, solid lifters for starters, digital dash so I dont know if they are harder to wind back. much nicer interior, feels more nible from what ive experienced, I preffer 34 for looks but that part is personal taste

not a case of winding back, they simply just put in the instrument cluster out of a car that has done less kms. very few people bother with physically winding back the clock these days. so much easier just to get a second hand one from the wreckers.

r34, a r33 in my books is not a real skyline, just a mangled ugly UFO car, which just somehow managed to crash into the Nissan factory, and steal a rb25/20 engine to blend in.

Neo is more responsive and also feel smoother.

+ the usual, less fuel less co2 etc etc.

also a r34 is absolutely sexy.

R34 mate, its simply a newer car, nicer interior your getting a car that was realeased first in 98 not 1993 (yes i know your looking at a series 2, but really theres minor changes with the interior). As people have said, the neo engine is better and newer. PLus you have had the R33.... time to upgrade not side shift.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
