Hey guys,

I am thining of buying a Skyline R32 Gts-t, and just found your site....Very cool site by the way. Most impressed. Anyway, Just wondering what sort of car are they to drive?

I know it seems stupid, but I always like the look and performace of them, but I would rather here if you guys have had problems. Are they easy to modify? Are they easy to drive. You know. Since you never find these things out till after we buy one and hand over our cash after a 10 minute test drive.

I am 35 with 60% NCb so insurance shouldn't be too high I hope.

But i am after a car thats fast straigh outta the blocks, but one that I can play with later on and upgrade without a shitload of hassles.

Thanks guys

:bat: :sadam: :bat: :ufo:

Mate I love your ICONs too...so cool......glad I found this place

The R32 GTS-t isn't very fast "straight outta the blocks"... But with a few modifications it can definitely hold it's own...

What cars have you previously owned? By that, I'm trying to get a feel of what kind of power you've experienced before and better point you into the right direction. I have a feeling an R32 GTR would be better suited for you... They have a lot more torque and come on boost a lot harder (but later) than the GTS-t.

Some people might not agree with me on this one, but if i were buying a gtst i'd take an R33. Sure they're as common as muck, but for the little bit extra cash you get a slightly newer car with roughly the same power. If your set on a 32 tho, i agree with merli, get a GTR, it will cost you a few grand more than a r33 gtst, but its lighter and faster. Plus with yr insurance it shouldnt be too pricey.

Plus add 1500 to your purchase price for your new exhaust from the turbo back, if it doesnt have one already and you have a nice base you can drive on for a bit until you get some cash together for the expensive bits.

Problems with skylines

1.Insurance but I dotn see problem with you

2.too Many of them out there...

3.Expensive parts it can be costly to fix... some insurance company take write off option for minor accidnets that are fixable(is that a word)

4.break in/ theift Pron especially when you have some mods

5.HICAS is damm bitch!!!

6.if you are buying for modd its Money drainer but like eveything else how much you put in you will get out of skylines

7.Aircon probs with R33 damm wind accurator makes tick tick tick sounds when car starts up

8.ENGINE IS VERY GOOD regualr maintance and TLC will go long way!

9. end of the day its your money and there are many skyklines out there so do some STUDY on the car before you flash $$$$

Hey thanks for the quick responses guys, i see you are real fans.

To answer Merli's questio, I haven't had many cars due to work but have a EF falcon V6 at the moment and have driven My brothers 400+ hp XB falcon UTE. Plus others cars I had were GTI swift and 74 929 mazda (yuck - non rotary).

But I am serious about my next car being a Import 4 and the Skyline is top of the list.

I would love the GT-R but I am limitied with a budget of about $17500-$20000 to spend so I thought I might start with a GTS-t. There are 2 other cars on my shopping list but you might want to skip reading this bit. They are the Nissan Pulsar GTi-R and the MR 2 Turbo. All in my limite.

Thanks again guys

and gals. :devfu:

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
