Hey Guys

The time has come! I finally have enough funds to buy what I've always wanted - a GTR.

Was going to put in a high flow turbo down the track etc but Ive decided Im going to give my brother the gtst as he gets of his p's soon and Im going to get either a 33 or 34 gtr

Question is , which one?

I know for a fact a 34 is better but also twice as expensive.

I can easily afford a good condition 33gtr now (selling for around $25k) but I was wondering whether I should save up for another 7 months or so and get a 34 instead.

I've driven a 33GTR and loved it but have never driven a 34GTR before.

Is it worth being twice as much?

Thoughts? Opinions?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

PS: Merry xmas!

It kinda comes down to which one you like more,

If you like the 34s twice as much, then it's probably worth it.

34 hands Down

33 nice for the price still but 34 is more refined and a panty dropper haha

This.

That's why these questions are useless.

What do you want?

i want a 34gtr , but they are really expensive and wanted to know if its THAT much better then the 33 to justify spending twice as much. ive driven a 33gtr but havnt been in or driven a 34gtr before so im not able to judge

You only just got the GTST I thought?

Anyway, 33>everything.

no got the gtst about 6 months ago ,just finished fitting intercooler and boost controller. going to put in a fuel pump and possibly tune and then give it to my bro whose almost of his p's

if im gonna wait to save up for the 34 then il keep the gtst until i get that or if im getting the 33gtr then il give it to my bro straight away.

hmm thanks for the responses guys

ive always LOVED the 34gtr but twice as much as the 33...? i dont know.

wont go with a 32 as they are a bit to old now and im planning on keeping my next car for a long long time.

If a 34 is what you want then just save and get one.

If you plan on keeping it for a long time then the r33 will be as old as the r32's you are currently thinking are too old in a shorter time than the r34.

As barney says...."new is always better"

this thread is absolutely stupid

Ah... Should see what he's doing on boostcrusing

Op stick with ur GTS-T upgrade turbo and stuff maybe manual conversion if p-platers are shaming you lol.

If you love Gtr's you best leave it until you can do it 100% right. Well thats what I reckon

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
