So was I... and I really wasn't trying to be flash, I was pointing out that I DO know what I am talking about.
Its the lack of torque that makes a Skyline feel Gutless.
MOST people I know that have had Skylines have engine problems.
They just have this aura of being bombproof when in reality they really aren't and have MORE inherent problems than a YB! not less!
Cossies engines are only unreliable when they get DIY'd badly or poorly modded or not maintained as they get old.
Same as Skylines engines that are now reaching that ages and having same bodges done!
I still REALLY like R33 GTR's and WOULD reccomend one. They have awesome presence, are big, comfy, fast and great handling cars and strong transmission.
But they are thirsty, can be unreliable and a 500bhp Porsche engine feels and pulls alot harder from anywhere in the rev range.
Me and Maria raced them a few times and the 911 would just WALK away from the Skyline.
As I said though I do still like R33 and think they offer fantastic value for money and would MUCH rather have one than a Saff..
You are in good hands with Ron at RKtuning. He won't rip you off and knows them very well.
