Ok so I’m still in the process of selling my 97 gts-t, but once that is done I want one of three cars. I can not decide between these cars and I hope you guys will help me out. I will point out my ideas for each car.

96-98 Supra (i think its the rz model) twin turbo - ok I have always liked supra's the shape and style and i have heard the twin turbos are very quick. I am just not sure if i want to move away from skylines.

98-99 r34 gt-t skyline I really like the idea of a newer cars and don’t mind a little less power for a much newer car and shape. Yeah I really do like the neo engine and the r34 shape. one problem with buying a gt-t is i think that the value would drop a lot more and a lot quicker then the supra or gtr. I don’t like the idea of having a car that is common in a few years and worth half the money.

95-96 r33 vspec gtr skyline what do i need to say gtr's are the shit much respect... I just don’t think it would be in as good condition in-side or out as the gt-t or supra having a car that looks and feels new is important to me... if it wasn’t i would be looking at r32 gtr's...

Before I started this thread i felt like i had a lot more to say... but now that it’s down I can’t think of much... :)

Thoughts?

cheers

if i had the choice, i would get the r34, because in my encounters they seem to be the least common on the road in my area (dont know about the cities) and its the newer car of the three. i guess the downfall would be that it is the least powerful out of the choices. but i reckon the very best option would be to give me the money instead :P lol. good luck to ya in your choice, no doubt you will be over the moon with any of those 3 cars!!

if you want more performance for you money go the gtr, its a fair bit quicker than the gt-t and awd is a bonus. I havent seen many r33 gtrs in bad condition, alot of them are in immaculate condition.

TT supras are nice, plenty of potential but i think the back seats are a very tight fit.

I cant really say much about the GT-T.

If i were you i would be getting the GTR, after all its a gtr - Nissan's ultimate. but thats just me...

true, the gtr is an icon, and you can say you own a gtr, lol. but the r33 seems to be very common these days, and its only gonna get older. it would definitely be a toss up between the r34 and r33, the r34 is less common, but the gtr would have the better performance, and you have already owned a 33 gtst, so it might be a good change for a different looking skyline?? really depends on wat u are looking for in the car. in my opinion-

performance, icon status of car = r33

newer car, less common = r34

thats abit expensive isnt it?

you could import a 95 - 97 gtr for that

That would be making the wild and crazy assumption that the r33 is a superior car.

Why do you think r32 gtr's in immaculate condition cost MORE than immac. r33 gtrs in japan?

There is a reason. :P

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
