well he could probably buy two GTS-t's for the price of a GT-R but of course its not quite the same!

R33 GT-R will be a collectors item and should hold their value, along with any GT-R.

With the GTS-T forget about it being any sort of money holder, its just a sink to play with and enjoy :P

imho get an r34 gt-t (99-2002?), these cars look awesome and go great, faster then an xr6t most likely, and they have alot of potential for extra mods extra. Resale value would be very good too as they are new. Can come in tip tronic auto too i think.

If not the r34 get an xr6t rather then an r33 :P

i walked in with a cheque to buy that n1gtr. drove it down to my mechanic, and placed it on the hoist. it had marks indicating that it had been on a jig. cars dont go on jigs unless they have been in something major. the gearbox mounts have also gone. the underbody is also soooooo clean..... you can put your tongue on it. you put the rest together......

i think ether a R33 GTR V-spec -or- R34 GT-T (tiptronic) that way your wife cant complain ether :)

R34 GT-T are coming way down in price and as some others have said "they make a refreshing look on the roads" i have a R34 GT and it gets looked at all the time and you just feel so good :D (sounds harsh but cant argue with the facts)

any way... yeh thats my opinion... byes

PS: Good luck with what ever you buy :)

you should go for the r34 gt-t.. mainlt because its newer.. and so..

yeah.. just pretty much on that idea.. the r34 should be preferred..

sure.. a series III r33 gtr would also be good.. but a r34 gt-t would be the ideal car to choose - if you have the money (of course)

As much as i love Skylines, i would at the drop of a hat swap with cash payment of balance aswell my R32 GTST for an XR6T or a new XR8.

Go with the new car option - im getting a bit frustrated with dealing with specialist mechanics etc and would give my right leg to have a warranty. Although new cars have teething problems at least repairs are under warranty and not as much will go wrong on a new car as opposed to a 10yr old import.

The new Falcons are awesome - esp the XRs so go out and get yourself a Blueprint or Phantom coloured XR6T or XR8 - you wont regret it. At times i regret buying my import (as much as i love it) because the costs are never ending.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
