the 4 door doesnt have any more space than the a 2 door though. so your getting into the same space through a smaller door.

im around 6.2 and almost 100kg and i get in and out of my car just fine.

im just curious about the appeal. i understand the price cause they are rare, its just that they dont look anywhere near as tuff as a gtr cause they havent got the pumped guards. i am also curious as to whether nissan would officially recognise them as a GTR.

Ok, I am going to go out on a limb here and say that I don't like the R33 4-door, even if it is an Autech GT-R. I dunno, I think it accentuates the worst aspects of the R33 design and looks very plain: I also dislike the sedan light cluster.

The R34 four door I think is a vast improvement, and that Jun R32 that Funky posted is quite cool.

Not trying to rain on other peoples parade -- and it would seem I am in the minority anyway -- but it just doesn't do it for me.

LW.

The 4 door has way more room for my teenage son who is 6.1, there is no way I can get him in the back of a 2 door. The appeal to me is I can have a family car that is way better than anthing I can afford here, and it is exclusive.

About the pumped look, you may want to take a second look as the 4 door also has the wider front AND rear guards, as the running gear is exactly the same as a 2 door.

The Autech versions are officially sanctioned by Nissan - Autech is their special vehicles arm, they do all sorts of things from 4 door R33 GTR's to wheelchair lift versions of standard Nissans.

The Autech R33 4 door GTR has the pumped front and rear gaurds.

I saw a 33 4 door a few years back that was imported by some panel beater/compliancer out Brisbane's Capalaba way. Can't say it did much for me, I loved the thought of it, but it just didn't look quite right.

Maybe because the things roof was flat to the door sills, and the guy was repairing it to sell!

Apparently it fell off the top of a car transporter in Japan! I often wonder where that ended up?

I would love the 4 door 33 gtr. the fact that when u pull up with mates (assuming u have more than 1) u don't have to get out to let them out. rather embarassing i would think. oh and the coupe is based of the sedan. just thought i would put that in ;-) and anyone that i would know would much prefer to have their own door for accessing the rear seats. so much hassel getting out to let them in, just because its a bigger door dosn't mean it makes it easier. you have moor room to get in the car when its a seperate door. not rocket science.

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
