Plus..yours is common gunmetal grey I think...I want sleeky silver. Don't worry you'll have a month or two to feel special..LOL.

Get a black un!!

R32's are nice, most of the ones on auctions now should be expensive though, coz they would have gone thru their 10 year rebuild, which would mean a pretty quality car, the downside being their price.

I'm not talking to anyone in particular in this thread but how many of you have actually driven an R34 GTT. How many have driven the GTR as well?

I you've driven an R34 GTT you'll realise how different it is to an R33 GTS-T. Also if you drive a GTR there is again a huge difference. This is stated by most people anyway because its an obvious fact.

The R34 GTT is in my opinion (and everyone has their own) a lot better to drive than an R33 GTS-T. As people know.. the R34 was based back on the R32 chasis to "bring the driver closer to the car" again. The R34 develops more power and torque and does this quite easily in most gears even before boost comes on. The steering is not light like an SS Commodore (although your comment about most new cars is valid... I think Nissan turbos are slightly different.... I would say for example an S13 is more raw than an S15 but thats not what I'd look for in a car) and you get good response, the throttle response is excellent and the power delivery is smooth (in standard form). Although heavier when I drove the R34 it felt lighter than an R33 and more nimble. If you haven't driven one... test drive one and compare it to your GTS-T and you'll notice differences.

If you have to live with the car everyday the interior is also nicer etc etc..... I'm not gonna say I don't care aout the looks of the car cos I do.... and I thnk the R34 looks nicer (in my opinion) than the previous GTS-Ts (but not an R33 GTR :D ). If everyone was pure sports car enthusiasts with no regard for looks why don't we see more GTi-R's on the street.

I wuld still consider the R34 GTT.... its also hard to find good examples of R32 GTRs....

Go and buy the R32 GTR......i wish they made an R34 GTR with a camira body on it....i would have bought it!Too many people worry about what looks good and not the shear mechanical brilliance of such an automobile.I have driven them all 32-33-34 gtrs and gts-gt-t.Supras with truckloads of HP ferraris and all the rest of it...I can say the nissan GTR is the best high volume manufactured vehicle ever made.100k for an R34 is half the price of what such a lovely car like that should be worth.people will also always talk about Big power figures they are going to achieve...i mean sure this can happen but try pullin the thing around a corner...or in the wet.Go the GTR

Get the GTR man. Alot more potential for mods and power etc.

Im kind of in the same boat as you. Im selling my R33 for want of a GTR.

I am a diehard nissan fan and couldnt settle for anything less than an R32 GTR. I think the shape of it looks really "tuff" and has the power to match. And like you said, it is a classic. Not many cars got banned from Bathurst for being too fast:D

I love Franks 34GTT...makes me really want one. But looking at his pictures (mind you, this is all I've seen, never got in one), is the interior of an R34 much different than 33 or even 32?

I know mine shares nearly the exact same lines, and shape. Besides newer seats and nicer dials. Is there much difference?

get the R32! for me it was always what i wanted - and within my price range! the next car i would ever go up to would definately be the R34 GTR (yeah! after a loooong time!)..

Go the r32 gtr. Peak like someone said earlier you do need to drive each car and find what suits you, eg. love the r33gtr looks wise but its such a daily driver no where near as much of a race car as the r32 or r34, what im getting at is there are alot of differences even though they are all badged "skyline"!!! Oh just to add something alot of you may be disregarding in this price range, the s15 silvia second hand are readily available for 35g so is the rx7 both absolutetly superb chassis'.:uh-huh:

s13 drifter... I partially disagree with your comment...

yes the 33 GTR isn't as fast as either the 32 or 34 (by 10ths of seconds on a quartermile) and in the experience of people who have driven it its not as 'pure' a car but I definitely wouldn't go as far as to say its a "daily driver car" no where near as much of a race car....

it definitely is still close enuf to a race car and given equal drivers for all three cars I reckon yes it probably would come last but not by much...

its still a GTR... it still has ATESSA... it still has an RB26DETT...

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
