ive never driven a R33 but it does seem it has more torque at the start than a R32. however once the R32 hits 3revs and over it lets u know its a skyline!!! :D

same would apply for a R33... but in a straight line launch you wouldn't start from below 3,000rpm

R33's are faster.. have more room, and are more modern.

R32's are more compact, feel more sporty, and have more direct and better handling

I've owned both, and the R32 already feels much better. With an RB25 engine, it would clearly be the fastest and better handling car.

I have both an R33 & R32 sedan with FMIC,3" from turbo, T/s plumbback, on both, the 33 is quicker and feels alot more refined but for those sideways adventures and tight corners the 32 feels much more responsive.

The 33 is now running lowered spings and both have camber & caster adj. bushes set up for sport and the 33 only just comes close to the feel of the 32.

Never raced them together(can't drive 2 cars at once)so I'm going by speed and feel on same stretch of road.

stock the 33 won hands down for being quicker.

Yeah i totally agree, the R32 makes up for its sportyness feel. Here in the NT we have no speed limits on the main highway and i pushed my R32 all the way and its got superb handling, all 4's stick to the road.

My experience in the past

My R32 used to run 12.5psi and made ~150rwkw with only an exhaust.

A friend with an R33 was running 11psi with a pod and exhaust.

The R32 used to pull away from the R33. Not by much but it was slightly quicker.

My R32 also used to sit dead smack even with another friends dead stock R33 GTR (Stock exhaust and all)

BUT... Once you begin to fiddle with the ecu on the R33's they leave the R32's for dead.

Dead stock R32 vs dead stock R33, the R33 is quicker.

Very mild exhaust and boost R32 vs very mild exhaust and boost R33, the R32 is quicker.

I put this down to the ECU in the R32 handling the mods a little better than the R33 as the R33's tend to have slight power dips and run very much rich!

Your R33 was manual, and your R32 is auto.. You can't compare them really Gordo.

My R32 vs unknown R33 I found on a *private straight part of road* I won by a half car length. I only made 140rwkw as well.

I’ll admit once you start and play with the R33 more, it’s a quicker car, but with the normal basic bolt on’s – The R32 is quicker IMHO.

ive got a r32 gtst and my bro has a s2 r33 gtst

overall id easily rather do up an r33 ... its just soo much nicer on the inside plus dual airbags... havent driven a stock r32 for handling but mines on teins and it handles like a gun the steering on my brothers feels a bit airy but i think we aftermarket suspension it would handle fine

we are both putting out about 190rwkw and when we raced he beat me on the start got a lot of wheelspin but after shifting to 2nd the r32 took off ahead but mines pretty heavily modded

but if your cashed up go a late model r33

I was mainly getting at how they are to drive, the handling, the "feel" of driving and sitting in one, not necessairly the straight line performance. Through the mountains the other night, the R32 was much better totally stock, and crappy auto as well.. than the handling of my old R33 ever was.

anyhow, the r32 will be manual soon enough..

I'm going to stick the RB25 turbo on the r32 in a month or so.. that will be interesting.. as the stock 32 turbo is a bit too undersized for the engine.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.

      So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
