32 is the best looking no doubt. and it will not 'date' as badly as the 33 and 34 will. I mean it's already 20 years old and still looks beautiful.

i rkn the r32 has a pretty ugly rear richard....wat about u?

nah, I love the 32 shape. from all angles. I have owned a few different GTRs now but still love the 32 GTR. I guess that's why I have 2 of them now.

I respect the 34 has lots of lots of advantages over the 32 (better wheels, better brakes, better interior, better seats, better chassis, better electronics, etc etc) but we are just talking about looks here, and I think that classic coke bottle shape of the 32 will be considered beautiful long after the 34 is considered dated and '90s'.

I ask people all around japan which is their favourite GTR. and I'm talking people like hayashi-san (owner of Garage Saurus) he loves the 32, owner of HKS kansai? prefers the 32. tets, owner of prime garage? prefers the 32 (in fact he said the only GTR he was so moved buy that he bought one brand new was the R32). I would say 90% of the GTR tuners I spoke to in Japan love the 32. everything the 33 and 34 have they owe to the 32 which pioneered all of their gear and forged that reputation.

I agree with Baron, it was way ahead of its time (lots of ways including style :D ) and was the original and still the best. I like it more because it is a classic and created a reputation. But i still love the road presents of the r34 gtr and hope i can have one of them soon to :O.

but the lights richard.......the lights

I've always had a thing for the 33. Maybe because that's what i was exposed to most when i first became interested in Skylines (also think how cool the YouTube videos are of the Top Secret 33 doing 200mph, also when Clarkson tested the Jun Super Lemon).

But the 32 has really grown on me, as with the 34. I guess they're all great individually- the more time you spend around one the more attached you become. This wouldn't happen if they weren't awesome cars. One of my mates has a hard looking 32. It has really convinced me it's a classic.

But still, i'd take a 33 over the rest. It's simple lines can really be complimented with a good kit (even the stocker), a Nismo bonnet and dropped a couple of inches with a set of bronze TE37's it just makes me drool the way any Euro exotic makes me drool.

Love em all!

32 - Classic, almost ageless, looking at phenlines first pic... that is beautiful.

33 - Big and tough looking, phat and fat.

34 - Love the flashback to the pronounced lines, and also the toughest looking of the lot. Something to really compete on the world stage in the looks dept.

In reality though, the R35 does make them all look dated whether you like the new shape or not.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
