visually it's gonna take a little getting used to. The post still don't fill up my screen (where's my magnifying glass? )

and the poor smilies are looking rather pale too :)

everything looks very cluttered - with posts sandwiched between users avatars and sigs it's difficult to actually read what's being said. No worries though, I'm sure Prank is sorting it out...

Nope, everythings still on the narrow side! It's gonna take some getting used to this new style, I have to admit I quite like things the way they were!

I have to agree - the forum is using about half my actual screen space... everyones shrunk!

nice one. Think I'll have to dust of my copy of Photoshop and have a go...

I had an N/A R33 GTS (RB20E) for 2 years. Great car, never missed a beat. Only downside was a lack of power (130 PS standard in a car that weighs quite a bit). Still, it was a skyline. I'd definitely recommend them for anyone on a budget, young drivers and so forth. If you want power, I'd got for the GTS25 (2.5 litre) it's twin cam and the tuning potential is better.

Nothing wrong with N/A! Less trouble Cheaper to buy and run:) Non existant turbo lag less power though

Yeah...for that price I imagine you'd get a mint R32 GTR and probably have enough change to get a POS runabout for day to day, shopping trips and the like... or spend it on mods...

that's one vote at least for the GTT Predator has a valid point. I wouldn't want to use a GTR for a daily driver, especially if it involved parking in crowded car parks, outside shopping malls and the like. There's no denying the GTR is the better car, but the GTT shouldn't be overlooked either...

Rezz, sorry missed you call earlier. I was in a meeting. See you tomorrow!! :D:D

^^^^^ hehe I knew you guys would say that ^^^^^ They're right though. The GTR has the street cred and the instant respect that the GTT lacks. Re-sale is always going to be better for the GTR. The GTT is an absolutely fantastic car in every way, but the GTR is better. I'd be happy to own either.

Just an after thought: if you have 35K now and sell your current car, wouldn't that give you enough money to be in R34 GTR territory?

Tough call that one. Everyones got their preferences and as far as looks are concerned that's something you've got to decide for yourself. On "paper" both the R33 GTR and the R34 GTT put out the same power, so there's not a lot between them in the power department. Most people are gonna say go the GTR because, well - it's a GTR! With the GTR's you'll get what is considered a stronger engine, plus the ATTESSA torque split system. You'll also be getting an older car, with higher KM's and an older design. Personally I like the feel of the R34's - they seem much smaller than the R33 series, particularly inside. R34's have the more modern interior and the updated RB engines with improved torque output over earlier RB's. Handling, well my R34 handles pretty well but I've never driven an R33 GTR at speed so I can't really compare. Both cars have HICAS, LSD's, sway bars etc and both have 17inch alloys as standard. If drifting is what you're wanting to do, then perhaps the RWD GTT would be the wiser choice. Probably the best advice is to test drive both and see what you think! Dave

but I don't have any to sell at the mo... For reference size is 17x7.5 +40

stock R34 GTT wheels look like this:

I think maybe you'll be the first

ditto... Those Do Luck Double Six's look awesome... It'll be a tough decision when I (finally) get enough money to get some new wheels... TE37's...LM-GT4's...Do Luck Double 6's... nismo kit...do luck...top secret... so many good aftermarket parts and so little money! :D

Do Luck Japanese? I never knew... You're right though, should have know the yanks couldn't have come up with a kit as tasteful as that They must have an american affiliate of something...

Nah, I don't mean the the bits covering the brake lights (they look pretty cool IMO), I meant the rectangular reflectors they've stuck on the sides, just behind the wheel arches! What do they think it is, a bus or something! Do Luck is an American Brand I believe...that's probably why it says Do Luck USA on the rear windscreen!

The Do Luck kit is seriously Only thing I don't like about it is the red reflecters stuck on the rear panels - why? :confused: Nice kit though. Get the front indicators changed to clear ones and it'd be nigh on perfect.

I think you're right - I recall reading that diffusers are used in formula 1 for that very purpose...

No need to apologize - you've just given me my new wallpaper!

hehe - they're not all good as my mate Dino (who drives an R34 GTR) can attest - he's always scraping it on parking "stops" and the like... They do make the car look lower though...

here's a top secret upgrade diffuser for the R34 GTR...
