the great debate...

[noise]

Ok so I’m still in the process of selling my 97 gts-t, but once that is done I want one of three cars. I can not decide between these cars and I hope you guys will help me out. I will point out my ideas for each car.

96-98 Supra (i think its the rz model) twin turbo - ok I have always liked supra's the shape and style and i have heard the twin turbos are very quick. I am just not sure if i want to move away from skylines.

98-99 r34 gt-t skyline I really like the idea of a newer cars and don’t mind a little less power for a much newer car and shape. Yeah I really do like the neo engine and the r34 shape. one problem with buying a gt-t is i think that the value would drop a lot more and a lot quicker then the supra or gtr. I don’t like the idea of having a car that is common in a few years and worth half the money.

95-96 r33 vspec gtr skyline what do i need to say gtr's are the shit much respect... I just don’t think it would be in as good condition in-side or out as the gt-t or supra having a car that looks and feels new is important to me... if it wasn’t i would be looking at r32 gtr's...

Before I started this thread i felt like i had a lot more to say... but now that it’s down I can’t think of much...

Thoughts?

cheers

Has anyone metioned teh GTR can nevar lose?

[Goon]

r34 gtt - meh

supra - nice looks with plenty of power-ups

gtr - king of dem all

[aybee]

whether or not the 34 becomes common depends on the Governments attitude.

either way, it wont be like 33s because heaps of them were imported under the old rules. so in general there will be fewer grey imports across the board in the future

[seraphyn_r33]

if i had the choice, i would get the r34, because in my encounters they seem to be the least common on the road in my area (dont know about the cities) and its the newer car of the three. i guess the downfall would be that it is the least powerful out of the choices. but i reckon the very best option would be to give me the money instead lol. good luck to ya in your choice, no doubt you will be over the moon with any of those 3 cars!!

if you want more performance for you money go the gtr, its a fair bit quicker than the gt-t and awd is a bonus. I havent seen many r33 gtrs in bad condition, alot of them are in immaculate condition.

TT supras are nice, plenty of potential but i think the back seats are a very tight fit.

I cant really say much about the GT-T.

If i were you i would be getting the GTR, after all its a gtr - Nissan's ultimate. but thats just me...

[pentae]

Supras are for posers.

[Serious-Seven]

with your price limit! ( looks like 35-40k) you couldnt get a nice supra ... possibly stock (YUCK!).

Just go around and get yourself a GT-R.

ever thought of importing a really really clean R32 GT-R? spending 35k will get you something awsome!

thats abit expensive isnt it?

you could import a 95 - 97 gtr for that

[Serious-Seven]

yeh its expensive but most R32's for that come with n1 spec's.

[seraphyn_r33]

true, the gtr is an icon, and you can say you own a gtr, lol. but the r33 seems to be very common these days, and its only gonna get older. it would definitely be a toss up between the r34 and r33, the r34 is less common, but the gtr would have the better performance, and you have already owned a 33 gtst, so it might be a good change for a different looking skyline?? really depends on wat u are looking for in the car. in my opinion-

performance, icon status of car = r33

newer car, less common = r34

[pentae]

That would be making the wild and crazy assumption that the r33 is a superior car.

Why do you think r32 gtr's in immaculate condition cost MORE than immac. r33 gtrs in japan?

There is a reason.

[Laurence]

Yeah, the same reason AE86's go for stupid money, nostalgia!!!

[Bax]

35-40k for a nice supra, should be fairly easy, most of the ones I see going are around 30k, and they don't look too bad..

I say the Supra, nice looking car so long as you don't have a wing and keep it low with nice rims, a shitload of power to boot.

[slamm]

If I had 35-40 for a car and had NEVER owned a skyline Then the GTR would be it. But owning a gtst like you do now, I'd go for something different in the next car, apart from power etc. the targa top supra would be it i reckon. very nice and I don't see that many of them around.

[Maxx]

supra / R33 GTR

won't go for R34, they are pretty similar to yr previous R33, why pay more for something VERY similar? try something new!

[Serious-Seven]

Slamn is also correct.

why not get a Targa top RZ supra ? imagin modifieng one of those ?

[noise]

thanks for all the replies ...keep em coming..

I have heard twin turbo 3 litre supras are as quick as the gtr's... is this true?

[INASNT]

Slamn is also correct.

Most of the targe top supras are NA, its very hard to find a TT

oops yeah thats right, and auto for that matter.
