Hi guys just need some advice.

I used to own a R33 GTS-4 (non turbo) loved it but just got over it and changed to a diffrent car.

Now about to get off my Ps and want to go back to the skyline.

So my common question is R33 GTR or a R34 GTT?

Also does the GTR cost more to maintain as it is the premium car? sorta like a clubsport compared to an SS with maintenance costs?

What sort of power am i looking at with a R33GTR + 5k worth of mods? as apposed to R34 GTT + 5K of mods?

Any advice and comments would be great!

Thanks.

GTR is and always will be better than a GTT, Im kicking myself that I got a R33 GTS-T when in hindsight I should have got a R32 GTR, The 33 has cost me about 35k so far and I wont get rid of it yet as Ive invested to much and if I was to sell it its just another 33 which costs around 10_15k.

A very good R33 GTR can be had for <30k, Not sure on 34GTTs as Im not interested in them.

And yes Im still thinking about a R32 GTR to drive on the streets.

they both cost the same to service .

what do you want to do with your car?

do you want a 34 with big fag nuts wheels and gay interior and that shit to roll round the streets with the mad blow off noises or do you want a gtr to do track days in ?

find a really good nearly stock GTR R32 , but it really depends if you want a semi modern interior get the R34 gtt the R33, 32 is lame but the GTR performance will crush a R34 GTT, if i could have sex with mine i would , bought mine for 25k and spent another 8k changing timing belt , steel turbos to replace ceramic , 1 expensive knock sensor (biatch) ,replaced ALL suspension bushes , HKS exhaust to replace stock , track tyres and other little general things now its a solid unit , im gettin horny just talkin about it . Heres a pic

Agree with Mark.

Think of it this way...

If you buy an R33 GT-R and run it like an R34 GT-T, it won't cost any more to maintain than a GT-T.

If you upgrade, then it can be a different story. Talk to Satanic if you're thinking of a GT-T and want to upgrade good and proper.

The secret is to buy a great one in the first place. Preferably a GT-R.

At inspection, bring along your brains trust; with each person having a checklist.

At the other end of your time spectrum, the GT-R can reward you with less depreciation.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
