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

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.

      Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
