33 gtr drifting? awesome documentary

gtrs in my understanding are fkin king of tracks (bathurst anyone?)

infact..

32gtr should have won due to OWNING bathurst and getting kicked out lol

but 34gtr is i reckon the hottest sexiest beast of the skylines

[ecentrix]

32 is fastest

[gersfan]

Honda jazz beats everything.

[NA_Goodness]

R32 GTR should have been in that documentary, because as a sports car, its the best one out of all of them. Having said that, I chose the 33 out of reliability (not as old), looks, and price. Still, would take a 33 GTR over a 32 GTR.

In the end, its personal opinion. Everyone's is different

[woggin]

cant believe some of the cars in the top 10, miata @ 2??? 911 in first?? funny how they said the skyline is tunable from the factory, it isnt, but they had a power FC in there, so it becomes adjustable!! wat a bunch of idiots!! i would of said GT40 for first, because of racing pedigree!!

[Dorigecko]

Sotiris, YOU would have said supra. Don't lie, you would have. Haha.

The 33 GTST is basically the 'drift' version of the 33 GTR.

total peices of crap. burn them alive I say.

I just can't seem to figure out why there are more on the roads then the god-like 32.

[SimonR32]

first of all, those facts are just great... turning circle 5.2m LOL

the reason there are more R33's is because they were a lot easier/cheaper to import under the old import scheme

[GODZ1LLA]

R33 is the better car....!!!!

Those facts are great.

The R33's turning circle is double the R32, and with its extra 500c and bigger turbo and more awesomez it only gets to 100 0.32 seconds faster, and down the quater mile 0.4 seconds ahead of the smaller, weaker, not as good, obsolete R32.

With all that aside, the list is a fail, not for the R33, just for the rest of the list.

Turning circle is crucial for Taxis.

Doesn't the RB20 run 10 psi boost vs 7 psi on the RB25?

[Niksmo]

as mentioned before 32's are getting old and outdated but its all about personal opinion.

that said i'd rather a r33. the value for money is just perfect.

[Swiper the Fox]

you sure you guys werent' watching a boating documentary rather than a sports car thing?

What do you call a carpark with more than 1 R33 parked in it?

Steering lock is also good for DRIFT, but hey, with 4 doors, you get LOOOOTS of lock, awesome for getting the cutomer to the airport on-time.

Don't you smoke crack?

Dunno what R32's run, Cefiro's run lower boost from the factory, so I dunno, somebody with a decent Skyline can answer that question for you.

Lack of boost is combatted by extra displacement, newer technology, oh, and those great turbo's and injectors and ECU and all the other goodies R33s have which R32s don't.

This thread is ammusing. Waves of brainless sheep praising their cars because some b-grade footage said they're awesome. Not exactly anything new though.
