Ive decided thats its time I start getting serious about purchasing my long desired GTR, ive had all kinds of cars in my time except a GTR. Looking at whats for sale right now there is a range of 32 and 33 GTR's for sale all around the same price as eachother depending on how clean and unmolested they are.

My dilema:

BNR32 is a legend and an icon but dated

BNCR33 is the sucessor to the 32 - newer, lower k's, alot nicer as a car being more modern and comfortable (aircon etc) and i would assume improved.

Curious to know what everyone thinks about this...similar price 32 or 33 GTR and why? Opinions and technical reasons..

Cheers,

Ray

I went through the same thing a year or so ago.

I ended up getting a BNR32 due to racing heritage in Aus. and I actually prefer the look of the R32 over the R33. I believe the R33 has superior rear leg room, but the R32 has sufficient rear leg room for my kids.

both the BNR32 and BCNR33 have air con!!

R32 all the way!

1: racing heritage.

2: nimble and stylish.

R33.

1: more leg room.

2: require a yacht club membership and boat license.

IMO.

Have you driven either?

Lol. I always have problems turning to port for some reason.

Personal preferance dude. If it were a dedicated track car then you woukd have a problem choosing. Seeing as its not. You can just go look at them all and drive them all. Gotta catch em all?

Been discussed a million times, I have an R32, but the 33 is a better car (have a fair bit of experience on the road with one) and they are heaps better value IMO.

I drove a '32 GTR on the road.

And a '33 GTR on the road.

As a road car - I like the '32 more.

As a track car - I have no clue how a '33 handles at speed.

And I own a 32 GTS-T, and have driven several '33 GTS-T's.

And the '32 looks sexier.

lol

I'd get the GTR with the best brakes, the best Attessa, the lowest Kms, the most complete history, the highest quality mods and given the most care.

The outcome hopefully might be a series 2 R33 GTR V-Spec or an ADM R32 GTR - now the latter one is a real dream & budget destroyer isn't it?

if your going to listen to anyone with a bit of common sense then listen to Terry

What he has said above is spot on.

Its not about the most mods but the quality and how well its looked after

Ive got an r33 gtr and i love it, yeh everyone carries on about how big they are but have you ever looked at one compared to an r35?

They realy are not that big of a car at all

      Big Brake Kit for ECR33

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Really comes down to user requirements, I have found my 324mm 350Z Brembo front set up more than sufficient for track use, especially for Wakefield Park with good brake pads. At Sydney Motorsport Park the GP Circuit can be a bit taxing on the braking system, I find by the 3rd hot lap there's rapid degradation in braking performance but at that point non semi slick tyres are about to give up anyway. And yes, the brakes are effective, slowing me down from 230km/h+ each time going into turn 1. Street use, it's more than enough for street activities. Most of the time people complain their brakes aren't sufficient, it's due to incorrect bleeding, poor choice of friction material, or faulty master cylinders.

      I'm about to sell my Attakd kit actually, so if you want a budget 2nd hand kit they definitely do work, though make sure you update your BMC when/if you do. Just keep in mind that buying pads (for any aftermarket kit) can be a bit more complicated when you have an aftermarket caliper. Not all brands make pads in the shapes and sizes you may want, no matter what you end up with.

      Wiring loom difference between A31 A/T RB20DET and R32 M/T RB20DET?

      By deuceforty2 · Posted

      Hey guys, I had an R32 M/T RB20DET in my S13 quite a while ago, however I have replaced the chassis harness on the S13 and picked up a new motor (A31 A/T RB20DET according to the ECU) and I am having a hell of a time trying to figure out the dash wiring (specifically the black/pink wire for the fuel pump).  It seems this A31 loom is quite different at the dash connector and there is not even a black/pink wire anywhere on the engine loom (on one of the 5 dash plugs that are there), or on the ECU for that matter.  Every pinout I have seen is totally different from the actual wires on my ECU and i'm at a loss on how to wire this thing into my S13....     Any ideas?   In summary : A31 A/T engine loom/ecu pinouts are different than any pinouts i have seen online (specifically around pin 18 Fuel Pump Relay)

      What are you doing with the car? Drags, sprints, racing? A decent upgrade of dba 4000 rotors, good quality pads (endless, project mu, intima are all I have used), quality fluid and braided lines. All have held up to multiple big track days and street duties. No need for big fancy kits as some also require significant energy to come upto operating temp. Look at 350z caliper and rotor upgrade too.  @Dose Pipe Sutututu comment on them and did a good write up.

      I've driven that one and it's a great deal and drives nice. The owner definitely treats it right on track. You would have gotten it for what you paid for this one too.   Keen to see what you do to this one.
