That leaves you several thousand for those "wear and tear" issues.

believe u me its not ....thats what most people think it is but its not ...

its like when u get the exhaust with the butterfly in it for the r34 it has two modes sport and normal driving ...its actually not nismo either its a nissan sports exhaust as well.

LOL, 10 years old being old.  Most Skyline imports are around that age or older.

hence my car is 1999/2000 model dude

currently 4-5 yrs old, keeping it for another 3 yrs and it'll still be under 10

the 93 supra i was looking at would be approaching 12 yrs old

big difference

thats why my car is a 1999/2000 model

currently only around 5 yrs old and after another 3 years, it'll still be under 10 yrs old

the 93/94 supra i was looking at back then would now be approaching 12 yrs old already, great car, definately better than the gtt in power but not what i was looking for due to age

like i said, if it was a 97+, then i'd wouldve definately went for it

Hey I'm not bagging you (sorry if you thought that), it's just that a lot of people (me included) could not afford a R34 GTT so we go for the older cars.

N/A Supras are fast for what they are. Stock to stock, my S1 33 Gts-t is a little faster than my mates 96 n/a Supra which is damn good on behalf of the fact the Supra has no turbo.

If I had have had more money when I went car shopping, would have gone the TT Supra for sure though. Much more of a beast than 33's, 34's, and n/a Sup's.

i think it will never has an answer

most people will say GTR is better, include me

but a guy i know, who owned MANY cars (SL600, R32 GTR, TT supra, costworth, FD & more)

and all of them are mildly mod (bigger turbo)

he told me he love his supra most.

I would definately go a series 2 or 3 R33 GTR (96-97). You should be able to pick up a good clean example for approx 45 with a few mods and IMHO I think its a better option than the tt supra, especially if you decide to modify and enjoy the traction advantage that the GTR has.

Hi mate,

I was pretty much on the same boat when I changed my R33 GTR for a TT Supra about a year ago, but after listening to my mechanic of how great the Supra was so I had to get one to try out, and still loving it.

There is no comparison between the GTT or GTST to the TT Supra, as the sups is a far better built machine with lots of potential.

Dont get either mate. For thirty grand you have so many opions. But think about what you want and want it for. Performance , drifting , luxury etc and got from there. But for around 25G you can pick up a GTR probably a R32, but then your talking 4WS 4WD, Twin turbo or a monster m/f#@cker. But if you want performance dont go the N/A Supra big disappointment. Plus the Skyline doesnt stand out to police, whereas the supra does more.

supra looks beautiful stock, GT-T need a bit of facework. Personal choice really.

Another question, why would you get auto? they cost around the same.

Any second hand car you get will have problems, so you might as well throw the money at something with a manual gearbox.

Don't go N/A as its alot slower and still just as heavy.

30,000 Id get a 33gt-r or an RX7 series VII or VIII or maybe even a WRX

    • 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/
