T.

I had a R32 GTSt weighed by shipping company, it was 1250kg, but when I took it in to get it weighed (with another 40L of fuel) on a weighbridge it was 1340kg or so, so its slightly low. (Btw, thats without me in car)

i guess im abit biased but i would choose the s14 for performance as out of the factory (although the R33 may have better figures on paper) I think the 200sx is quicker than an r33. Im sure theres going to be some debate over this but I will leave that to you guys. I would choose the skyline for its roominess though as the s14 backseats cannot fit 2 people comfortably. Looks-wise both look just as good as each other in my opinion but other reasons why i would choose the s14 is for the fuel efficiency and insurance. Alot of power for less fuel :D

These forums are promoting Skylines too much! /me conveniently forgets the point that he's probably the newest Skyline owner on the forum.

just on your point of seeing too many skylines around, i usually see heaps of them when im in convoy :( but besides that I *rarely* see them on the roads however, I'll see a million S15's though :D

curb weight is usually with half tank of fuel, no passengers and no luggage. Basically empty street weight.

Gross weight can either be the car totally empty with no fuel oil or any options/accessories, but can sometime be total weight WITH fuel oil, 2-3 passengers etc.

go with the curb weight, it's what most magazines quote

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
