Yes... top gear or 5th gear... I don't remember. They reviewed the R32 GTR definately, and i'm sure they did the R34 at some stage.

I also have a file called "1000hp Nissan Skyline GT-R R33 Tuned by JUN Tested by Jeremy Clarkson.avi" which was quite good. Not much info on the specs, but he was amazed.

There have been several that I can remember.

Jeremy Clarkson reviewed the R32 on an episode of Motorworld once. The Japan episode (obviously). It's not top gear, but it's the same guy so who cares. Some fat guy from Top Gear had a buyers guide on the R32, R33 and R34 skylines. Jeremy Clarkson reviewed the R34 on Top Gear. Tiff Needel reviewed the R34 on Fifth Gear. Jeremy Clarkson drove a 1000hp R33 on one of his DVDs. CAn't think of any others off the top of my head. All of these are available on file sharing programs such as Kazaa, Emule etc. and they are highly likely able to be found as torrents. Also try Google videos.

THere will be something to do with an R34 at some point in the current season as there was footage of one in the preview at the start of the first episode.

The R32 GTR was reviewed in Top Gear Magazine back in 92. I know because it was my dad's GTR that Jeremy Clarkson reviewed. It was the first R32 GTR to be imported and reviewed in the UK and was imported by Middlehurst motorsport of which Andy Middlehurst raced an R32 GTR in the Saloon car championships and received major sponsership by Oracle because my dad was working for Oracle in the UK at the time....Just some useless information for you :)

      Shockabsorber 101

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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?

      By benl1981 · Posted

      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

      LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
