Look at all the menacing, stylish and beautiful R33 GTRs. How can anyone say they're not the best looking GTR.

The front looks amazing. The rear looks too much like our late 90’s Chevy impalas which is why I don’t like it

You know what’s funny, in terms of the front I think it’s a close tie between the R34 & R33 GTRs for looks but the rear the R33 & R32 GTRs takes the cake as the rear of the R34 is just hideous in all aspects.

Robocop, love the video mate we are the true R33 GTR enthusiasts on this forum. They are a showstopper and in years to come when R33 GTR values are through the roof and USA"ers are fighting tooth and nail for the true race bred king (33R) people can look back and say "they were right".

Obviously, the cars clearly at the top of the food chain in the Top 5 are the 33 GTR, NSX, FD3S S8 RX-7, Supra and the Nissan S15 Silvia (Paul walker has been interviewed saying this is his favourite car - amazing comment given all the supercars he has driven). I can also vouch for the S15 being a f**king thoroughbred hence why Im in the process of a full house build to unleash its GT potential, the handling is pure and it is the true definition of an all-round RWD road & track warrior.

I know this is stated the obvious...but I freaken totally agree with you...again...! LOL

As for RWD Nissans, I also love the s15 best. Lovely nimble shape and with proper mods and suspension, handles like a dream around corners and it doesn't get enough recognition in my opinion. I think you should definitely build it into a road and track weapon as s15's are way under powered from factory.

This is freaken stuff...has R33 GTR looks in my opinion:

Now I know you are on drugs.  Yes, it looks awesome*.  No, it has nothing R33 GTR about it.

*Awesome as in a 12 year old boy would stiffy up over it.  It is a very childish/hotwheels car sort of concept to smash a Corvette and S20 together.

I can’t agree more. The 32 rear end is phenomenal. The 34 seems kinda over dramatic. Like the tail lights seem twice that of the 32

It's like a couple of kids discovering bro love and kool aid.

"True racebred king" = R32

The 33 and 34 are riding on its coat tails, IMO 

 

Keep up the good work, and......go

MLR, Please explain how the R32 is the racebred king when it's far SLOWER than the R33 & R34....

Not too mention a lot less rigid, I mean.... it's like trying to plough a chick with a semi-flacid schlong, where as the 33 and 34 would be like ploughing with viagra!!!!!!!!! I know what I'd rather!!!

Exactly. The R33’s rear is evidently the evolution of the R32’s.

Robocop, I'm definitely with you on that one mate.

f**k, we are definitely on the same page.

And the Nissan engineers would of thought..... let's make the 33 ass-end phatter, badder and sexier....akin to a beautiful voluptuous latina woman with curves in all the right places.

Because the 32 was the car that owned the mountain, the reporters called it "Godzilla" because it was a giant (V8) killer.

What has the 33 or 34 done that equates to that.

Why is a XY GT HO worth the money it gets, Bathurst  history.

I could name a heap of other cars with mototsport history that bring in the dollars, but I won't.

Yes the 33 and 34 are famous because of F&F, yes the yanks love that shit, but long term, IMO the cars are topping out, some, like that low Klm GTR may hold some value if they are stored, but, IMO from following the car scene and what brings in the dollars, the average 33 and 34 will take a fall.

People buying up average condition cars thinking they are an investment are, again, from watching the market over the last 20 odd years, dreaming.

As for how they look, they are all dated, but I like the 32 the best, that's my opinion, you like the 33, thats your opinion, some people only like the 34, some people, like me, think the 35 looks like the boss and walks over everything before it.

Am I wrong, is my opinion wrong?

From reading your previous replies, I would hazard to guess that you would tell me my opinion is wrong.

Anyways, it's always a pleasure reading your replies

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
