like it has been said before 33 are only being called common because you notice them a lot more than other cars. if your purpose in buying a car is so it not common in your eyes buy a Maybach (speeling?) for a cool million dollars.

but my opinion is go the 34 as it a newer car and it shape really does look lovely imo with its sharper more aggressive lines compared to the 33 with its more subtle smooth sexy type lines

The thing that made me choose the 33 over the 34 was that for the price I was paying I would get a bone standard 34 that had done about 170,000km, whereas I was able to get a '98 33 that had done less km's and already had a lot of mods done.

170,000kms? On an R34 :confused:. Got mine for a little over $30k and it had only 15,000 on the clock. Great car!!

Yeah the R34 is nice, but if u didnt realise from the R32 R33 R34 they are losing the "Mean" look. The R32 looks mean as and so does the R33. But the R34 dont look like it means business. Lets not tork about the V35 which is a total piece of shit. I would say go for a Series 2 R33 or a R34.

My personal opinion in this: if you want outright moddability, the R33 is the way to go. Not only is it the most common model on Australian roads, but its pretty much the best supported Skyline in both Australia and Japan.

I personally prefer the stock R33 GTS-t looks over the stock R34 GT-T looks: something about the GT-Ts doesn't quite float my boat. Having said that, I think the R34 GT-R is the nicest design of all, and some of the GT-T kits do wonders for its appearance.

Taking into consideration its a newer car with improvements, I think the R34 GT-T is the best compromise between price, (stock) performance, moddability, and 'new-ness'. I would only have one priviso: buy a manual if you buy a GT-T so you don't have issues with aftermarket ECUs.

LW.

are you serious?

the 34 looks the meanest with its angry headlights. 32 comes in second. 33 comes in a very very distant third on the "mean" scale, with its headlights that curve down on the outsides. doesnt give a purposeful look at all!

similar to the s14. series one looks girly with the rounded headlights, while the series 2 is mean with the angular lights.

get a 34 if you can afford it

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all
