ok here's the thing.

i've already made a few decisions on what car i want to get.

here they are:

1. nissan

2. skyline

3. R32

4. manual turbo.

5. 2 or 4 door? <_<

i'm not gonna use the car for drift or track but it's going to be used as a daily driver.

get me to uni everyday, work,etc..... and also an at the lights drag every now and then.

:P:P B)

now i've never driven these cars before so is there any difference at all other than the two extra doors?

thanks.

your opinions are much appreciated

personally i'm a 2 door man... ive got a 2 door 32 that i use as a daily driver and i couldnt be happier with it,

theres not too much difference performance-wise between the two, the 4 door being a tiny bit heavier i think.

the main differences are cosmetic, are u intending this car to be a people mover (all ur mates) as well as the way to get to and from work/uni? if so then maybe the 4 door is more practical.

the rear lights are the major reason why im not a big fan of 4 door 32s, i prefer the 2 door rear lights.

hope this helps a bit

I quite like the 4 doors, but it might be a little harder to get a manual. Before i got my R33 (2 door) i was close to buying a R32 GTS4 4 door just cos they're a little different and also having driven and been in a 4 door R33 theres a hell of alot more room inside. the whole cabin feels less claustrophobic, and the advantages of getting passengers in and out are also pretty convenient. In any case im sure you'll be happy... unless the time arises where u need to use the back seat for some lovin' then you'll wish u got the 4 door :wink:

I have owned both a 2 door and a 4 door (current)

I prefer my 4 door over the 2 door i used to have.

It looks tougher for some reason. (and is heaps faster:)

There is no difference in interior room in the 32's though ( they share the same wheel base) . all the extra doors do is make it easier to get in and out of the back seat.

Four doors all the way. Overall shape looks a lot more cleaner IMO. No sharp inclines off the the rear window like the 2 doors. I think the four doors look sporty, especially ones with the factory aero kit. Like mine :P

Me biased? Never....

Go the 4 Dr ive had mine 6 months now, and sure they look a lil plain stock but coilovers give it a tought stance will and make a hole difference, its all the same shit really performance wise, but i dont have to worry about my mates draggin in and out of the 2 door,

the 2 and 4 doors have the same wheel base, therefore same drive train. slightly more room in the back but still not really much room at all. 4 door has a bigger boot. personally go the 2 door after its a sports car not a people mover.

WOOOW! im felling good :O B)

I just got a 4 door. I wanted a 4dr for a while, not many around. It may have rear doors but the leg room in the back is stuff all when a 6ft3 person is driving.

Yep something about it. Put a mild kit on one and the front catches up to the tough rear.

4 door all the way man there the best and if you have noticed a foor door is about as fat as a gtr at the back so bolt on wide front gards and your laughing ill get photos of mine up soon you will see that they are f-ing rad

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
