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

:D

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.

    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha 
    • Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.
    • Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?
    • Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.
