I took a Nissan R33 1994 GTST for a test drive, was an Auto and I didnt think an Auto would be that great at all.. Little did I know it totaly kicked ass$ss, Turbo kicked in at the normal 3500rpm and I almost wet myself, torque, gear changes in the Auto everything was awesome. I joined this forum the very next day.

Mods it had = 3" exaust + Filter

Im now about to get a GTST R33 within the next week.

Hmm, well my first was a stock standard R33 Gts-t, was not modified...the guy bought a lemon basically, was in really bad condition, anyway, he let me take it for a spin...

i really like the way it sat on the road, it seems to be a very predictable chassis, controllable oversteer and great "bum feel" hehe...i diddn't mind it, just not enough usable power band IHMO...so as for power and torque, it wasnt very surprising...

Second, however was a really sckmik orange with gold pearl R32 Gts-t in QLD, hmm nice, was high flowed and suspension work, upped boost, now that was a nice machine, liked the torque and power of that let me assure you...

Orange R32

...speaking of which, does any1 know this car or the owner may be on the forum???

so now i have stepped up once again, and am soon to have my 32 GTR :( i just love the thrust back you get in the seat of a skyline :) hehe, why would you want to drive anything else...

Firsy time(w/turbocharged skyline) was about 3-4 months ago....

- R32 GTS-t w/RB25DET, stock boost, only mods were exhaust & POD Filter

- I couldnt believe how quick and stable this thing was! Biggest supprise! The feeling of boost coming on was awesome! So stable, even with stock suspension tramlined around tight turns fast.....I was smiling all day after that...hehe :( (Now gonna be on the lookout for an R32 GTS-t end of year/start of next yr - SO BEAUTIFUL)

my first ride in a skyline, was in an R32 GTS-t, totally stock exept for an exhaust and 12psi boost. It was raining that day so we had the tail out everywhere! I was previously looking for a 180SX after a mate took me for a ride in one, but the skyline changed my mind instantly. So yeah, the power and torque really blew me away. The stability and handling was very impressive too. I was hooked and within 2 months i'd bought my own!

thats excellent to hear champ, my mate bought a stock 180, which is now heavily modded, its awesome, but im super happy with my skyline, they are awesome cars. just take care of it and yourself and you'll get along fine.

cheers

The first time I drove a skyline was a mates he had and Red 95 GTST, before this I new of skylines but hadn’t really payed attention to them until this night. We had like 4 people in the car, and when I put the foot down and felt myself being pushed into the seat and could hear the turbo spooling up, I was buzzing, I loved it. Then again after driving a telstar for 5 years anything would seam quick. It was only running about 10psi and exhaust was a little bigger then standard. When I jumped out I said to my self I’m getting a skyline my mind was made up. My mates kept on telling me “get a VP SS or VS SS”. But how much can you do to a commodore.

Have never looked back. Go the SKYS

my first was a stock 33gtst and i was so disappointed its was guttless because it was a fresh import from the car yard.

my mate convinced me to try a few more the next was 33gtst with exhaust pod and 10 pounds then i was impressed....

now i own 2........ mmm skylines

oh-ho-yeah... the first was my GT-R32... such fun.

what can i say... im addicted to boost. its almost stock, but on a cold night, it feals like an F1 racecar...

one of the first times i opend it up, i remember like it was a week ago... hang on a sec, it was... i know it was stupid, but i just had to. i was fanging it, and i got up to about 170 and realized what i am doing, then backed off. the G.O. and the WHO are amazing

In 2001 I was introduced to full throttle on a 750hp midnight purple r33 GTR, which the owner paid a cool $130,000 for.. It was a nutcase, and also the first r33 skyline i'd ever seen, i knew nothing about skylines and had no idea Nissan could make something so bonkers! That was then.. :(

first one i drove was an R33 auto (didn't want an auto, but they were shoving the keys at me so i thought, why not) and it felt good but i couldn't really give it bit..

second one was a manual R33 and he let me take it out on a back road - and this was the first time i actually put my foot down in a turbo skyline and OMG!! I knew I'd made the right choice :(:D

ordered one thru an importer soon after ;)

First time was back in 2001ish in an R33 GTST with front mount, huge exhaust, hi-flow/aftermarket turbo and boost controller. The thing hammered, and I knew I definately had to have a skyline after.

About a year later I still didnt have my skyline and went for a ride in an R32 GTR with N1 turbos, exhaust, front mount. That thing scared me sh!tless and 12 months later I had my own R32 GTR sitting in the garage (now running ~330kw at the wheels).

first time was in JETT R32 GTR That ran a 10.8!! FARKKK./.. i think it went by me.. arr fark $hit... and grabbing the door handle.. im sure mirko could confirm that hehe .. hsit myself.. i got abit of whiplash! well shock mostly.. makes me want a big single but i went for the n1s for the street... big single on drag though.. slams you back...

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
