It really depends on what you want it for. Eg do you need back seats? If so don't even THINK about the RX7 :P The 2+2 3rd Gen RX7s have bum locators, I wouldn't even call them back seats. Basically you squat behind the driver/front passenger and the 'seats' stop you from falling over...

As with any car purchase, drive them all (not just around the block) and buy the one you'll still be happy with in a year.

I'm having the same dilemma. Your in the same boat as me mate. I love my GTR to bits, however, it IS getting a bit long in the tooth so I'm considering something newer with a factory waranty etc.

I just spent a shitload of money rebuilding my motor so it seems financially insane to sell it right after I have forked out so much money on it.

I suppose if I manage to sell the car, the new owner will be one lucky ****!

HCR32.... Grow up, I mean ppl here would prefer constructive comments...like, the V-spec II is pretty much 3 X the value of the most expensive car he's got in his list..... I say stick with the R32 or go the R33 V-spec... more down on earth i think.

By the way guys, I just heard some1 mentioned the 'W' word....'Warranty'. Well, I'm not getting paid for sayin this but any1 interested should check out 'JAPLINK' at Haberfield in Sydney, they import Skylines along with many others. I recently picked up a serII R33 with 3 years warranty and 1 yr rd-side assistance. I know the law in NSW says any commercial importers must provide a min 3 months, but try 3 YEARS @ JAPLINK !! When I picked up my '33, they had a Silver GTR V-spec sittin there..... real horny lookin'...

Plus most places instantly voids ya warranty as soon as they realise you've modified ya ride, well, JAPLINK modifies ya ride for ya and keeps ya warranty in one piece. GO TALK TO ROB !

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • 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.
