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.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
