tossing up whether to buy a 34 gtr or 33 gtr

i love the 33 shape but i have heard the 34's are better?

i dont know much about gtr's. whats the go?

this car wont be modified much apart from a ecu and exhaust and some mild boost.

Definitely the 34. Nothing wrong with the 33 but after how many years of driving one do you want to step into the seat of yet another 33. It will be a completely different car, but most of the interior will be the same. A 34 will look and feel different and new, plus it'll look nicer to a lot of your car ignorant friends. Besides, apart from the recent R35, the R34 has been the ultimate car for so many Skyline (and other car) drivers, you'll be the envy of everyone on the road.

I like the R34 better, looks wise.

Better as in... All depends, handling / power / overall refinement.

Things are inproved in the R34 at the same time more buttons to push. Overall same car, engine, but depending on which level of model.

Ok Stock R33 GTR vs Stock R34 GTR = Same with a few extra inbuilt features.

R34 got electronic LCD multifuntion display unit / R33 got analog gauges.

The LCD can show the G-Force the car is pulling and there is a lap timer, a rev light, all the Oil Temp / Oil Pressure / Boost Gauge / Water Temp Gauge / Fuel Injector Gauge / Exhaust Temp Gauge etc... Do you need all these? Its all just inbuilt accessories. Not complaining if I had it but just more things to look out for.

Unitll you get to the V-Spec II N1 / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec, there will be slight differences in engine, suspension and revisions on the car.

I drove a 303kw GTR R33 then went for a ride in a 450 kw GTR R33 with all the sweet bolt on parts... Yeah its faster / better than a R34, but I could do the same and bolt on all the seet mods in the GTR R34 then that will / could be better... All depends on whats done on the car and personal prefferance.

But I must say sitting in the R34 I was very impressive. The Dashboard and the whole interiour is very refined as aposed to the R33.

Personaly I like the R34 with its TUFF Killer looks but it just cost more than my GTR R32.

GO THE GTR R34!!! :)

no dout BNR34 is a awesome car, from stock it has the looks and performance. it's a beast!!!

current mods to my car is:

Highflow cat

Nismo exhaust

Cam Gears

Nismo panel filter(factory box)

1 bar boost

exedy clutch

Dyno tuned with 98 octane fuel

Pumps out 278kw to the ground, which with a proper launch beats a F430 by 3 car lengths and a gallardo by 3.5 car lengths by 3rd gear. car runs perfect and reliable.

get the BNR34 well worth the extra dosh.

BNR34 = R34 GTR. oops left it out i'm using a Apexi Power FC. Yeah it was pretty cool running those 2 cars, my friend was shadered that he lost to me in both his cars. both cost about half mil each on the road. bloody deafening with both cars redlining every gear.

    • Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult
    • Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 馃槀  So what's the plan for the exhaust? 
    • The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.  
    • Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
    • Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
