R33 series 1 gts/t = ugly

R33 GTR + series 2 gts/t = sexy shizz

R34 = fkin sexy

I personally think the r33's reputation of its looks was horrible because of the series 1 gts/t's, Other than that all the other r33s look fine to me. Matter of taste and opinion. In the end, you own a freakin skyline and thats pretty decent no matter what model it is. if anything im sick of those kents in their commys and falcons thinking their rides are all that, when infact its just an over powered tractor. I mean seriously we should be discussing why people think their commodores are so great, i mean who doesnt own one of them =='

Ive always loved Skylines, ever since I can remember and far far before the fast n furious mob decided to steal the show....my dream car is an r34 gtr vspec2....a beautiful looking car. I currently o

Not one damn thing wrong with the R33. When you have three people in a room, two tend to pair off and it makes the other guy feel like the odd one out. Or there's always a scapeboat 'er scapegoat. T

looking at that i would have to say the 33 is the smoothest, sleekest, SLIMEST car of the lot....

It also looks the lowest and is the nicest colour...

In fact i have just gained a whole new love for the 33 shape..

I always though it was a bit baulbous looking as well but beside its brothers its gotta be the sexiest of the bunch...

ok firstly...stageas? really ? those massive station-wagons? people actually thing they are good looking? i just assumed that whoever was driving it wanted a skyline but had kids...hence the shitty station-wagon version of the skyline. imo Bar the front(which is a skyline front anyway)...those things are ridiculously hideous......

secondly...duckwings are the shit....but the stock s2 spoiler has really grown on me and suits the car now that its been lowered...so im keeeping it.

Lastly , yes an s1 maroon skyline with that rounded spoiler looks almost as bad as a stagea.

For someone who is only very new to this forum, i'll just give you a heads up..

Stageas have a pretty huge following on here, so maybe not so much hate, save you getting off on the wrong foot..

You already started a thread about R33's being ugly, now stageas...

thanks for the heads up , but IMO(yeah O stands for opinion) stageas are butt ugly and I stand by it. Like another member on here said ..the only reason he got one is because he wanted to the haul the kids around and in spite of its looks a stagea is till better then any other station wagon out there. If I had kids..id buy a Stagea too.

You obviously dont get the point oif the thread...notice the inverted commas before and after the word "ugly"? I personally LOVE the r33 shape..as I have stated before...and cant seem to understand why the general car community consider it the worst looking of the Skylines...hence the start of this thread

Kids these days got no respect..

I'm sure his mum is fat and ugly too, but if someone didn't drive her he wouldn't be here ..

Id imagine someone with over 8000 posts would have some kind of civility as you've been on this forums for sometime....instead you choose to insult my mother....this has made you feel better/prove your point somehow? I'm not sure I quite understand this keyboard heroism, but you have succeeded in coming of as a massive douchebag- congratulations!

Nissan owners make the R33 ugly.

Especially now as they head into "old age" and the paint wears through and they cop dings etc... They need to be treated with TLC but a lot of the ones I see don't get that.

Have a look in your rear view mirror next time you have a 32 behind you and let me know if you can tell wether its an early 90's laser or a 32. I cant.

I have a supra...most R32s are so far behind I cant see them anymore...... :ph34r:

Everyone can have an opinion mate, did I overtake you at the track recently? Drag you off at the lights? Or are you just jelly?

Stagea's ftw. At least I don't get pulled up every second day, actually I never have in this. Plus it is a lot cheaper than a 34gtr and most of the running gear is the same.

Have you even seen the newer M35 stagea up close? Probably not...

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
