Mods...both

Performance...GT-t mainly cause engine will be newer lol

Handelling...not sure

General performance...not much in it lol stock wise

Im selling up at the end of year to buy a 34, 33's are nice but they are getting old man. and they are as common as dog shit now

34 stockies go for low 30's...

33's range from shit ones...mid 10's to nice stockies high 10's and reasonably modded low 20's depending on whats on it

From being in both type of cars. Depends how much money you want to spend. In those budgets I would only consider a "late" series 2 in the r33 gtst range at a minimum if you wanted a r33 otherwise I would say get a r34 gtt all the features, added options, cosmetic looks, performance etc all add up to the price of the R34 gtt and is worth every penny.

My 2 cents. Rob

BTW Your the one who will be sitting in the car most of the time (unless someone else uses it) try a seat in each car and which one your are more comfortable with.

I looked at both when buying my skyline and the 34 is definitely worth the extra price.

Whilst fundamentally the same, the extra refinement and newer age are a big plus. And also as previously mentioned 33s are getting very common, whilst there are a few 34s out there, nowhere near as many.

the neo motor has solid lifters and it's factory power rating is higher than the 33.

the only bad thing is 2nd hand parts is hard to come by with things such as suspension parts, body parts, interior dress up stuff etc...

but i thought it wasn't as easy to tune and doesn't take mods as well

I think I will end up saving for a R34, the do produce a nice torque band stock and are modify-able.. Just a little more pricey at the moment, but I'm sure they'll go down as time goes on, I'd love to do one like the one in your avatar torreto, or perhaps a black one..

33 -> cheap, everywhere

34 -> newer, better and more torque engine, cool styling (at least in my opinion anyway), not as common as 33s, nice dash, more boot space and also more backseat room :D The only downside is the price.

Ultimately the choice is yours, I have test driven a few 33s (modified and unmodified) and a few 34s. At the end the 34 is what I did purchased, I would go so far as to say that the 34s can be used for a family car quite nicely. :(

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
