First post so G'DAY TO ALL!!

Ok, I am looking at these two skylines can anybody tell me which they think is the better of the two? in terms of performance, reliability, cost, efficiency, cost to repair, part availability ect.

1.R32 1993 Gts25T - has the RB25DET engine

2.R33 1996 GTS-T

I can pick up the gts25t for approx 10K and the GTS-T for about 15K, so any thoughts, they both drive well just want to know what the general feel is for these two models.

Cheers,

FYI: R32s never had 2.5L Turbo from the factory so that R32 has had some work done to it.

That i know ;) thats why i said it had the 2.5Turbo, not the standard 2.5

so that woud be a bad thing? could a 1993 gts25t be an R33 not R32?

Edited by shireskyline

The R32 could just be so named because it has an RB25DET engine transplant from a later model, or even dodgily had a turbo thrown onto the side of a normal RB25DE.

Also, technically speaking the model numbers are around the wrong way - there was no R32 GTS25-t released by Nissan, and all R33 GTS-t's are GTS25-t's but are often called just GTS-t for short.

Hmm...was abit confused for a moment there. I thought GTS-Ts ARE GTS25T? 1996 GTST for 15k is quite a good deal..go for the 96 one...

But if you wanna import one :):):)

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
