And this 32 vs 33 thing, we are really talking about the classic Elle McPherson vs Sophie Hawkins aren't we??

I mean Elle was damn good, still is OK, but she can't stay that way forever.......so along comes Sophie to continue the good work.

I can see parallels here.

sophie? dont u mean jennifer?

When you do get the chance to drive a GTR (properly) Leigh, you will realise why they are so much more appreciated than the GTST, I have driven a very serious R32 GTR before and since then I have lusted after one ever since (particularly an R32 GTR Vspec2... Hmmmm I wonder who has one of those?) but I simply cannot afford one, let alone the insurance price tag, but ONE DAY! I will have one!

Jayce..... If you happen to die of "natural" causes can I have your car pretty please? You know Ill take good care of it! :P

ive driven an r33 gtr vspec n got quite bored of it. only thing worthy of noting was launching. didnt get 2 try out cornering it on the edge but it was enough for me.

R32 [ 42 ] [56.00%]

R33 [ 33 ] [44.00%]

After I voted.

This is a silly conversation, the r33 was created in error much like the 2001 WRX... both pretty but wrong. The original WRX was a cult car like the CRX before it, even now it is appreciated more than its younger brother the 2001. Its much the same for the 32s and 33s, I had a guy just the other day come ask me if mine was a r34, ok he was out of the game but new a 34 was a newish car, surely no one would mistake a so called "aged" car for a new one, put simply they have aged very gracfully, as for looking better with a kit, yes the r33s look better with a kit much like a prossy with heaps of make up. You still dont want to wake next to it!

Looking at stat's, Jayce has clearly shown that the r32 GTR was the quickest and most known of the Skyline race, but lets also look at how many r33s you your self know that have been crashed. I can count close to 9 and I only know 1-2 r32s, Driver you may say, but these are a japanese family car = more crahing- bad design I say...

I would say my preference would be

- R34 GTR

- R32 GTR

- R33 GTR

- R32 Gtst

- R34 Gtst

- 2001 WRX

- R33 Gtst

hehehe

* the opionions in this post are mine and mine alone, no offence was intended to anyone (excpet R33 Gtst drivers, who claim on R32 GTR popularity).

your welcome... :)

All quiet on this topic...Looks like the 32 takes the prize,yes?!?

just because there are alot more poor people out there who cant afford 33's they figure they had better vote 32's as they may have a chance of being able to afford one :D

*starts up a fire and runs and hides*

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
