lwells Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 makes u Sick when u look inside way outa date I have to say this really doesn't bother me about the R32 GT-R. Sure it looks sparse, but when you actually drive the car you realise why its sparse: you're meant to be concentrating on driving. With the exception of the centre gauges (bad idea IMHO, too hard to see) all the vital controls and important info is at hand/in eye shot. On a different tangent, you've given a purchase budget, but what's you're ongoing commitment like (ie. how much do you mind spending in maintainence)? Is this for a daily driver?

IOWNU Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I've had an R34 GT-T, got bored of the power, plus it wasn't a GTR. So i go an R32 GTR (don't like R33s.) Anyways, they still look pretty good on the outside, but yeah, the interior looks pretty crap as compared to the R34, but not too bad. Seats are great, just the dashboard is annoying (i recently saw this carbon fibre look paint stuff that can make ur dash look heaps newer!) Also agree about the 3 tachos in the middle, they are pretty hard to look at while driving, also, they can reflect some pretty nice sunlight into your eyes at times. Power wise, GTR owns it, as expected, 34 has looks, outside and inside. It will feel a hell of a lot like your R33 GTST, actually, it is your R33 GTST with a few major upgrades. So it depends do you want newer looks etc, or more power. At the end of the day, I might sell my GTR and get a GT-T again, then sell the GT-T and get a GTR! LoL. Flip a coin?

chch34 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Yeap ive owned an R34 GTT and got bord of the power. much more reliable and easier on the eye, got respect from old people, RWD, but nothing on my R32 GTR i have now. So much more power, much more fun to drive with the 4WD and gains more respect from skyline fans a like. It all depends on what you want out of a car, if you want a styley powerful reliable sports car get a GTT, but if you want a tough classic super car get a GTR. When i had my gtt i was happy with it, but i knew it wasnt a gtr, and i wanted a weapon, so got a gtr. good luck man!

Gtr Glafche Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 R32 Gtr anyday, look at the difference in performance? Gtr is a rare car, and i agree its getting old but you will find good examples out there, i wouldnt bother with a R34.

R31Nismoid Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 One thing to note is that ive seen and lately hearing of an ever increasing number of R32 GTR's that not too long after landing the motors have let go varying reasons. They come out of Japan nice and cheap, there is a reason for that. People think they are getting a good deal and then it lets go a big end or the turbo(s) die/blowby increases casue the rings have had it. The 32 motor isnt the most reliable thing on the earth either in stock form and it is 12+ years old on average, for a car that you arent going to drive like a nanna, its hardly something you wanna deal with. If you drag/track it, or mod it and stick bigger turbos on then your definately going to sh|t it sooner. Get the 34-t. It might be slower and it wont make as much power as easily, but it wont cost you a fortune in maintainance. If you cant afford the cost of a rebuild and a set of turbos from the get-go, then dont get the GTR IMO. In saying that im probably opening the door for a grilling, but i see too many die and people just shattered Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95442-gtr-r32-vs-gt-t-r34-not-race-just-compairing/#findComment-1748871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangles Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Easy, grab a 260RS Stagea wagon. Weapon of a car being GTR based, and practical as well being a wagon. Look half decent and can get it landed and on road for under 40k.

mad34 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 i have gtt. i love it it definately feels alot more nimble than the 33 and definately more powerful. Why have you ruled out the 33 gtr. They are great cars easy to get heaps of power out of and still look phat. R32 are old and will need money spent on them to get them back up to a powerful daily driver condition Id say gtt or 97/98 s2 33gtr Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95442-gtr-r32-vs-gt-t-r34-not-race-just-compairing/#findComment-1748997 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKTECH Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 If it's a daily then go with the R34 GTT. GTR's should not be daily drivers..

smurf80 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 You will find the 34GTT will behave similar to your 33. Its essentily the same car with a cosmetic upgrade and minor drivetrain tweaks. To be honest you cant really compare the GTT and GTR there different horses for different courses.

SS8_Gohan Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 i was under the impression the suspension on the 34 was quite different to the 33... 34 is shorter to i think. NEO is something significantly different. Styling can hardly been seen as an 'upgrade', looks markedly different Haven't driven both but i still think the 33 and 34 (Gtst/GTT) are quite distinctly different cars Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95442-gtr-r32-vs-gt-t-r34-not-race-just-compairing/#findComment-1754592 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFC05 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 R32 GTR maintance & Repair cost are high BUT once u have driven it u get addicted to the power and drive other cars and think it slow pieces of shit Get R32 GTR u will need to be prepared to spend money on like you said it old cars now and most of them are thrashed but i gotta say they are very well built cars worth every cent !!! if u want a reliable car without high maintance & repair costs go ther R34 GTT thats how i would look at it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95442-gtr-r32-vs-gt-t-r34-not-race-just-compairing/#findComment-1754620 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you drove both, like within 5 mins of each other, you'd know. Peace.

smurf80 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Yeah I agree I have a 97 R33 and I have driven a 98 R34 and it just felt like a newer version of the same car. You are right it is a tiny bit shorter but nothing major. Not sure about suspension but the Neo has full valve timing where as the 33 only has valve timing on the intake...someone correct me if im wrong???

Amaru Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Why only spend $25k on a GTR if you have $30k availible? Use the extra $5k and you should be able to pick up a 1992/1993/1994 GTR fairly stock in good condition. You get what you pay for... Im not saying the $25k ones are bombs, but yould get a markedly better car for $30k (just as you would get even better at $35k). Despite some people who dont want to believe it, you get what you pay for.
