Hello

My R32 GTS-T is dying and it is better for me to buy another one or buy a different car?

I was looking at the Silvias and was wondering what is the big difference between them and Skylines, mainly the R32 GTS-T.

Which should I buy?

Help please

Whats your budget? Planning on modding?

R32 is heavier than an S13 Sr20 silvia and a lil more expensive in price. Both respond well to mods but the power to weight ratio the silvia has it hands down.

R33's are pretty cheap these days too...

I'd go Sr20 Sil over an Rb20 R32

If you have the money you could drop an R33 Rb25 in you R32 :D

335 is asking R32 GTST vs S14/15, not S13.

R32 is 10 years older then S15, its still a bit bigger and heavier, but less power.

the good of R32 is front and rear double independent double wishbone suspension, 6 cylinder engine, and you can drop RB25 or RB26 or even RB30. This is what S15 require more work on it. If you are mod monster and don't mind the age of car, R32 is better, because you saved the price difference in your pocket for new gear.

If you like newer car, S15 no question on it(you can get R34 if you want newer and bigger).

might want to add if you get an s15 you might want to think a bout a trans. the 6 speed is weak sauce.

ur comparing apples and oranges.. the r32 is older and cheaper. s14/15 newer and more expensive.

s14 is probably the best bang for buck, can pick one up for only a couple grand more than a 32.

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
