Hi all,

I decided i was going to buy a r34 a while ago and have been looking around, I found this guy advertising a r34 GTS but Ive never heard of an r34 GTS, so was asking if there is actually such a car?

as far as I knew there were these models: (excluding the GT-R's)

  • GT - 2.0 L , 140 hp (103 kW)
  • 25 GT, GT-X, GT-V - 2.5 L , 193 hp (142 kW)
  • GT-FOUR - 2.5 L , 193 hp (142 kW) 4WD
  • GT-T - 2.5 L , 280 hp (206 kW, 343 Nm)

thanks

No some thing as a GTS I believe, he must mean a GT-Four if it is 4wd and non turbs

thanks, another Q, What is a semi-automatic car? never seen one. Do you still have to change gears? or use the clutch?

thanks

semi-automatic can also be known as Selectronic or Tip tronic. It has no clutch and is basically an auto but you have the option to switch to "manual mode" up change the gears up or down (+ or -) Google it in images and you will get some pics. Had it in my old car and didn't really like it as you still get the lag in gear changes, just means you can hold in gear as long as you choose but still have the option of an auto car.

What happened to the 's' when they went onto the R34's? It has always been R32 'GTS' something and R33 'GTS' something (except GTR). Why did Nissan decide to get rid of the 's' for the R34's? Is it no longer a 'sports' type of car?

Cos the 34 is awesome and doesn't need the "S"

I really don't know but on my old car the "GT-t" badge looked horn. so much funkier than they old r33 sticker that said "GTS25T" or whatever

I have another question, I am set on buying an R33, and preferably a series II one as well (1996-97). So I found one car advertised as a 1996 GTST r33, and another as a 1996 GTST r33 M spec. Whats the diff between the M spec and the regular GTST?

thanks mate,

the pic of the cars I can buy are in the attachment, the second pic is the other skyline i can pick from. which one looks better you reckon? (i couldnt figure out how to just stick the image in the post :S They are both 1996 r33 GTST's, the blue one cost $11,500 with 100,000k's. the white one $13,500 with 70,000k's. i reckon the white looks better, and the blue cars wheels are pretty bad too.

If they were both of equal quality, I'd get the blue one. Wheels are easy to change, but the white one looks better. Buy the one with the things in better condition in my opinion.

yeah, was thinking about that. heres a pic of the two engines: the blue line's engine seems to be shinier :yes: now which one would you buy?

A question I would ask myself is, "Why is the engine so clean in the first place? What was it like before? Was it leaking oil everywhere and he just cleaned it up to make it look 'better'?" Those questions could be shit, but you never know, something could've gone wrong and he just cleaned the engine to hide that problem.

I would just purchase the car that's in better condition overall.

Goodluck with your purchase, I would still go for the white one. I just like white :)

    • Oh bugger ! Your right ! Good old hydrogen sulfide. Takes me back to the good old school days ! 
    • I've owned a few scooters over the years, a Vespa PX oil burner was my first scooter, followed by a few others, including a little 50cc BeeWee that I used as a barracks bike, and I've had a blast on all of them, they really are the cheapest for of city/suburb transport around The only issue with scooters in Australia is lots of people look down on them due to their size,  maybe they need a big bike to make up for something else where they are lacking, unlike Europe and Asia where every man an their dog owns one, and now that filtering is legal in NSW, local traffic is never a issue Not to say I haven't owned my share of big cc bikes over the years, but they were for more blasting through the hills or Hwy riding where it needed to sit on Hwy speeds Safety wise, I ride like everyone is always trying to kill me, everyone is running a red, or running stop/give way signs, or generally asleep at the wheel, which most people are duringtheir commute, I also ride really safe, and give myself, and everyone else enough room in case I need to pull some hasty evasive actions, I've done a few rider training days over the years, which has come in handy on more than a few occasions  As for mods, there's nothing really, and yes your right about aftermarket exhaust, all you get is loud and obnoxious noises from them, like every 250-300 cc you hear with a aftermarket muffler, in saying this I did put a rear muffler from a 125 Aprilla on one of my old 125 scooters, it was horrendous and no amount of full face helmet and ear plugs would dampen that noise As for coming from the Harley, and what a overpriced POS that was, I no longer do big rides as my poor old busted joints ache after about 1/2 an hour of riding, long cruises are so much more enjoyable now in a car, so a big bike would be pointless   
    • Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.
    • You need to know I am sorry for this.  
    • As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1
