Its a matter of opinion. But the facts R33 is roomer and has a better more powerful engine, r33 is 100kgs heavier but still quicker in a straight line. Ive heard R32s handle better but im unsure on that one.

I prefer the looks of the R33, inside and out. R32's are starting to look a bit dated.

yeah zactly it all comes down to personal preference, everyones biased towards the car they drive, so your gonna get alot of opinions that will end up confusing you, only way to determine is find one of the two YOU like and buy it. :)

personally, R33 all the way, updated ex/interior, and jst looks alot better. :D

I love the 32s with my heart. for me they are a much nicer looking car, I don't even mind the interior.

BUT my head loves the 33s. they are slightly newer, slightly better interior etc.

BTW, i'm talking GTRs. 33 GTSTs do not float my boat.

That is exactly what i thought when thinking about posting this thread but ended up doing it neways to hear what 33 drivers like over the 32 and vis versa.

Some intereting stuff has been said and helps.

Myself i like the 32 look over the 33 but again as another member said it comes down to what takes ya fancy.

Not sure about the 90's rolla though INASNT lol

32's are better.... In my opinion. Don't mention fuel economy on this forum! I don't bother checking anymore, it isnt that great. I don't know what has been done to my 32 besides zorst & pod, but it wastes my mates 33. His is stock as tho, but mine has had very little done to it as well. I prefer the look of the 32 GTSt. 33 GTR looks alright tho.

R32 My friend. I have one. Out of my group of friends, 8 of us have R32's and only one has an R33 (and for good reason) haha. I personaly don't like the look of the R33, not in stock form anyway.

R32's are cheaper for parts although due to their age, parts are a little harder to find (compared to R33)

It all comes down to personal opinion. If you want a boat, but have outright power, go the R33. If you want nimbleness and outright good looks, the R32 is the way to go (4 door especially hehe).

Don't get me wrong. R33's are great, especially when kit-ed up and NO WING! But I'll always be a 32 man... different strokes I guess.

      R33 general questions

      By Kaptain · Posted

      Im not entirely sure exactly what or where its leaking from, he started to pull the boots to swap to my new tie rods + ends and it just vomited fluid, so he closed em up up, swapped the rod ends to the old rods and let me know so I can figure a solution out, im guessing its all origional as as I passed 103k miles earlier this year im sure its just in need of a full overhual/rebuild anyways.    If i could just yank it off and be good it wouldn't be an issue to ship it out and wait for the turnaround but the guy I work with doesnt really have space to keep my car for a week or two at a time, would rather drop it off and have a replacement ready to drop in

      R33 general questions

      What do you mean by "seals"? Internal hydraulic seals (ie, is it leaking PS fluid?) or the rack boots that close the rack onto the tie-rods? Because the former is a rebuild, and the latter is trivial that you or any nearby mechanic could do. Dunno about the cowl. Just buy what you think is required and get anything else you find/break afterwards. Wing? Dunno. Don't like R33s enough to pay attention to them. Mirror glass is just glass (on the surface that you want to polish). Go for it.

      R33 general questions

      By Kaptain · Posted

      Hello! Long time lurker, been using the forums to address concerns and questions from afar for a while but I've struggled to find some answers so I guess its about time I made an account and formally asked some more knowledgeable people, since finding local skyline owners is hard (and shops that are knowledgeable or trustworthy to work on 'rare' cars are non existent out where im at, as skylines are quite uncommon to find in the wild around here). So the main 3 questions I have, 1: Steering rack has blown seals, well.. they kind of hold but they are not sealed properly anymore and as my R33 is my DD, i cant exactly rip the rack out and send it off or attempt to fix myself. As most refurb ones are around $1,100 or more shipped, and I have other things I need to work on around the car, I was seeking clarification on whether an S15 rack will more or less bolt right in, and whether a common mechanic could do any other required work to get it to fit. I ask, as I've found a supplier than can sell a manufactured as oem one for around 400, if not I'll likely order a used one from Jacks JDM, and take a risk on the seals there. The second question i have is that im replacing the front wiper cowl and have planned to buy 4 new clips and a new center clip but wasnt sure if there were any other clips that would also need to get replaced while I was at it. Given im sure any that are there now will simply break when I remove the old cowl... Last thing would be a fairly straight forward question, i think. If I manage (strong if, finding one has proven to be a pain) to find a R33 GTR spoiler/wing will it require much modification to bolt to a S2 R33 GTST? I've read the bolt patterns dont match but otherwise would bolt in, only options I have found with much luck is China stuff on ebay and carbonetics, which has a nice $650 shipping fee... so if anyone has any pointers where a US chap could locate one that would be great Random side question as well, the mirrors as I understand are mirror glass, and as im planning to polish my windows from water spots and surface scratches, i was hopeful cerium oxide would be fine for them too, as my research points to, but clarification is always nice. Any pointers would be appreciated, and while I have scoured the internet for answers if I missed a prior post somewhere that may answer these directly please point me towards it, as i must have simply missed it. I have seen a post here or there that has mentioned it, but I usually get 50-50 answers, or half answers... I dont have a lot of fab experience or mechanic experience, outside of hydraulic and pneumatic stuff I did in the military and with how hard it is to source stuff in the US, id rather not wing it and hemmoraghe money lol. Thanks guys! Sorry for the monumental first post haha

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!
