Actually I find the gtt looks blend without kit. Sorta like S15. But I do agree they will look awesome with some money spent just on body kits.

Anyway, a GTR will provide a better platform for everything imo. You dont have to do much to get the power + its already fat enough.

You'll be surprised at the way a stock GTR handles. Ask Rohan or Russel (Or the guy who I sold my car to, that's after he fixes his jaw back into place)

On the twisted sister and rattlesnake cruises, no GTST could keep up through corners :)

Put in some decent monotube coilovers, whiteline sway bars, lower it a tad...really you won't go back.

It's like high class hookers. :D

Nic_A31, I completely disagree about seats. R33 GTR seats are a million times better than R34 GTT ones. Way more comfy and supportive imho.

Agree with Brandon, 34's look plain with no kit. I was with a mate and pointed out a spoilerless 34 on the road, and he was like, wtf, thats a skyline?

I don't see whats wrong with using a GTR as a daily.... Its not as if its hard to drive =\

Or you could go for a limited edition tommy kaira like me....

Its just a case of tracking one down.....

I was finding it hard to decide to which to go for until i saw the tommy kaira pop up for sale..!!!

The GTR is sorta like my only car but I dont drive to work. In terms of comfort, I think its actually quite good. And yes, the seats are very nice. I was told when a few of my friends sat on them,and not just the front, even the rear seats.

+1, aaaand you get tonnes of legroom in the back for R33 GTRs.

With the tommy kaira, theres a R33 GTR tommy kaira on carsales.... :)

Yea only if you've got short legs like me... Hahaha. But seriously, the legroom isnt bad at all when you're comparing to the likes of say, rx7?

My GTR could be a bit of a hassle as a daily. So i am buying a daily car to make up for it, but this goes for any relatively high horspower car. Heavy clutches and shit day to day fuel consumption make for an expensive daily.

Unless you've got aftermarket clutch (which you'll require after 300 - 400kw?), I find the stock 1 pretty soft and nice actually. FC really depends on how much you can control your right foot... it varies significantly.

R33 GTR is a better car, better value for money... but uglier

R34 GTT is still a very good car...

By your original post your getting a loan... DO NOT BUY A GTR unless you have enough money to double the asking price for maintenance and repairs!!!

Go the R33 GTR, imo they look way better than any 34, especially with 18in BBS and lowering, just looks so tougher. oh and they are way faster, probably a downside in your case because it converts into more fuel consumption. but if you earn enough who cares.

Thats only if you bought a lemon. If so, the same applies to the GTT too.

Since my ownership, I have spend less than 1.5k on servicing. Thats including the 1k aircon fitting I've got.

Doesnt matter which one you end up getting, just make sure you're getting one thats of high quality.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.

      Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
