other than all the obvious bs and my dislike for the look of wrx's the major question is what are you gunna do with it?

the gtr is a bigger stronger and heavier car that can seriously move while the wrx is a nimble Fing little thing that can do some serous cornering (tho id rather an evo)

me id pay off a serious chunk of the mortgage but ive got a track car in the shed so

if it has to be a 4 door, 2.0L, smallish car

FIXED, besides, some Cefiro's came in AWD too, if traction is what you want.

Please die! :)

Lets face it, apart from the GTR in mention, there are way too many R33s running around...theyre becoming the Commodore - something different?

No, IMO its no longer an import if you can walk out your front door and go find one in a non HPV car yard.

Reckon this guy is starting to get the feeling that the WRX isnt liked around here much ?

Yeah I know it LOOKS like that...it's just that we 33 owners drive around ALOT (because our cars are just SO great) so it just LOOKS like there are more 33's about than there really are. :)

Anyway at least it means parts are forthcoming etc.

BTW I see WAY more Imprezas about. Now they are common.

Does that mean Commodores are the greatest car ever? seing as there are more of them than any other car on the road ? :) no, it means theyre cheap, and for knuckleheads.

Hahah, just kidding. I dont exactly hate the R33, I just think theyre the least appealing, and too many of them...I reckon Japan would take some back if we offered.

So, you're comparing a NON-STI to... not only a GTR but a GTR V Spec...that make the battle even more unfair. Disregarding such obvious advantages is like being stubborn and insisting your Civic runs 11 seconds without NoS...only in the movies buddy :(

Other pro's / cons:

Probably just as cheap to insure and run the GTR

Better response from 6 cylinders, and displacement

AWD system is much better

You'll probably find more support (and social acceptance) for the GTR on forums

EDIT:

Of course, this is all assuming you want power and performance, not hair gel and nasal delivery....

true... i see shit loads of imprezas on the road.. and i drive around alot.... they are nothing special..

i think the OP should have got his answer by now...

4cyl 2.0L single turbo vs 6cyl 2.6L twin turbo

id pick the gtr .. its got more power...looks better... and u dont have to like it in the bum to own one.

To everyone saying WRX's are slow, did anyone see [GTR ETA] at powercruise? Because im sorry to say, but that was owning everything until it got engine knocks...

That said, WRX's are still gay and the GTR wins hands down :D

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all   
    • LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
