uhmm what about insurance. If most are saying chasers are rare they must cost a fair bit to insure?

My pic would be the chaser because it's a nice cruiser with performance.

The r34 is a great car too but in my opinion attracts the wrong kind of attention.

A skyline will have every bogan out there trying to drag you off at the lights while the chaser will be a bit of a sleeper that only enthusiests will notice.

R34 sedan looks great to my eyes, I do admit a certain bias though hehe

I can't really see how 2 door variants perform better at the track anyway.

Sure if they weigh more but the difference between my car and a manual

coupe is 40kg. Not that much and can be offset by the size of a driver.

Suspension? Is it softer? Most who are track regulars change stock susp

anyway.... Seen a few 34 sedan drifting in Jap also... Seems like a

misconception to me. I mean do rear doors increases chassis flexing or

something :confused:

Well if we're going to compare the bottom models, here's 2 pics for you to compare :D

Just to be fair though, here's why I think the Chaser is more of a Magna than a Camry (the headlights just aren't similar at all on the Camry). The headlights on the Magna are very similar.

Just something to wet your apetite.

I know of your Altezza, nice ride, but i hopefully will be getting my JZX100 Chaser by the end of the year.

As michael and some of the guys said earlier, performance wise they are pretty much on par, looks, i much prefer the jzx100, cleaner smoother lines, r34 4 doors are much to boxy for me. Interior is really just a personal taste, but i like the carbon fibre trim the JZX100 has stock, and defi style cluster.

For mods i mean heaps of parts available for both engines, 1JZ's have been proven to be a bit stronger than the RB25's in general and the manual 5 speed that comes with the 100's is abo****ely bullet proof (once you change the thrust washer in the 1st gear with a decent strength item) and is good for a hell of a lot more power than the r34 5 speed.

Id say take them both for a drive, see which one you like the feel of better and go for that because they really are so similar for working on, just need to choose what tickles your fancy.

Insurance should be marginally cheaper for a JZX100 as well, plus less attention from the police orrificers while it remains stock.

1JZ 4 lyfe :werd:

Good luck!

anyone know what ya looking for a JZX100 Chaser in manual these days? low thirtys/high twentys?

jake32 i hope ya didnt paste a whole bunch of jzx90 prices seing as it said twin-turbo which as the 100's are single turbo doesnt seem like them, or a company that doesnt know the difference betweent he two =|

:D

thats what they call em where i buy em and of course they know the difference between 100 and 90 ....

Id defiantly go the JZX100 over the R34, damn, I was about to buy one! I just got lazy and couldnt take the wait for one to come over..

Body parts would become hard to get for them I would imagine for quite a while, I just hope that interest in them picks up very soon..

And on the subject of them looking like a camry, Ive always thought the chaser series to look quite like the equivalent year almost camrys over there, the jzx90 can certainly look like some camry models as well. But hey, they are practically the camry for over there so theres no reason why they wouldnt copy the design for over here!

I wasn't really going to say anything (due to the natural bias) and admittedly, the done up Chasers look quite hot - FROM THE OUTSIDE!

Once the photos of the interior were posted up, I couldn't stop gaggin! And did someone say it'll end up costing more? Man, 99% of your time with your car is spent INSIDE it, so it pays to have a good interior~

OMG seeing those photos and then trying to draw a connection with that nice red exterior... just don't work!

then they should know that a JZX100 is single turbo ;-)

on a side not the manuals are significantly more expensive for a reason, with a decent tranny cooler on the auto u mite be able 2 get around 350-370rwhp or so before maybe running into problems, whereas the 5 speed box is happy to go to insane levels many people on toymods have cars running these boxes with cars that are makin 400rwkw+
