I was reading some of the rice vs non rice threads and i have come to the conclusion that all r33s are rice, Because if they actually wanted a real performance car, they would have bought an r32. Insted of just a car that looks like a performance car.

hehe

oh well just a little dig just trying to start some feeling for the 4 6s and rotory day, rb20 vs rb25, let the fun begin

Mine isn't.

It's an 'all aussi' nationalised migrant (minus the roo-bar, open roof for shooting, offroad tyres and spotties).

I've got dents that are over 2years old red dust all underneath (from driving on unsealed roads) and stock appearance.

Like the pintara style, nothing like bringing down the rev-head posers with a 'sleeper' family car. :D

ive got nothing against 32's, i quite like em actually, but dont they improve things with each model change?? thats what impression i was under anyway, learn from old mistakes, well not necassarily mistakes but just to better things, if they didnt think it was better why would they change it??

Good theory but not always true. U have to admit the 33 is more of a tourer while the 32 is a 'true' sports car.

hasn't the 2002 bug eyed wrx got less power than the ones before???

and agree'd about the 32 being more of a sports car, and the 33, well could class as a sports/tourer :lol:

What's the definition of a true sports car?

Therefore is an MX5 a True,True sports car?

Nissan in there wildest dreams would not claim any Skyline as a "True Sports Car" ....Sporting yes.

Nissan badge their Skylines GT's translated from italian is Grand tourer so if the 33 is more of a tourer it is the better car than the 32 in your opinion boostzor ?

In my opinion car makers must improve each successive model overall or go out of business

Cheers

Note i said " 'true' sports car" not "true sports car" i reckon there is a difference.

IMHO a 'true sports car' is light, powerful (good power to weight), RWD or 4wd and has a wide/low wheelbase.

Left wing being sports and right wing being tourer i would have to say while the 33 is left of centre the 32 is more so. Well thats what i reckon anyhow.

I'm not too sure about that dude... i do recall crashtzors cruise (the night of his demise!) some time ago where i had a small run againt the pintara (RB20LagWagon0 i was in front by a bit but only marginally... since then i have had a few mods done... even if RB20Lagwagon has done mods then he will have to spend a few $$$ giving Killer T ago, i know Killer T could whip me even now that i have spent a few $$$ on mine...

I dunno your list of mods RB20Lagwagon but they would have to be a lot to give Killer T a go.

I have no doubt that RB20Lagwagon is quick skyzer but it would take a bit to beat Killer T

thats exactly what i thought, they wouldn't change something if it didn't need improving, they would try new things and test new things and implement the changes on the newer models.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
