Was just flicking through a perforamce imports magazine.. Think a couple of issues back they had an R34 with a 2jz track car.. Haha

Skylines and 2JZ have been done quite a few times... I remember standing next to the drift 34 at WTAC and looking at the turbo then realising it was on the wrong side :P

Love the people whom say the Supra is a good looking car when most have already stated it's ugly as sin.

I'd go the R34 personally. The Supra has a better engine for deriving the maximum amount of power but that's about it.

Have you driven a car with 300kw as a daily? You wouldn't want a 400kw+ Supra as a daily, would just be an absolute dog to drive.

High powered cars dont have to be cops to drive! You can make nice responsive 350-400kw dailys out of either car i reckon!

Ha ha. I find the r34 fugly. R32 classic lines, r33 good taste plus classic lines (supra-like style), r34 wtf were they thinking. Just sharing :lol:

I own a R32 GT-R personally. But I can see your line of thinking - because the R33 is widely considered to be ugly too. Never heard the styling of the R33 and good taste mentioned in the same sentence.

If you care how old your car is, care if it creaks and rattles etc and want reliability that comes with a newer car (parts other than engine strength) get the r34. If you don't care about any of that stuff, and just want the best engine for power possible, supra. It will decimate all with about 15-20k of parts in it on the tab at Harry's.

R34's are the most aggressive looking out of the 3.

R32's have nice streamline looks + classic / original.

R33's just have a bulbous look up front.

Supra is f**king gorgeous. Damn skyline forum...

R34 GTT Vs Supra RZ

R34:
Tiny brakes
Good looks
More space inside for rear people

More "modern" interior
Deeper boot

400rwhp is about limit for internals (Give/take)

Bit lighter

Supra:
Beautiful to look at
Huge brakes
2JZ - need I say more?

6 speed getrag
Driver focused interior (love/hate, I love)
Shallow, wide-ish boot

FWIW, I had a supra with hks coilies and it handles so damn well.. Far better than my stupid S2K currently*.


*May be unfair cause S2k has stock suspension.. I hate it most cause of electric PS.

Every time I see a 34 I complain to God for giving me the gift of sight.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
