This is the R33 info, can't imagine there's that much difference

Curb Weight 1390 Kg
Length 4640 mm
Width 1720 mm
Height 1340 mm
Wheelbase 2720 mm
Turning Circle 10.4 m



And if you want a nice cheap R33 N/A runabout, do a search under my name in the Cars For Sale section

33 is the biggest and best looking in my opinion True 5 seaters... my 34 doesn't have alot of room in the back!

Got a middle seat belt, but unless you're under 4 stone I can't imagine sitting in the middle

I personally much prefer the look of your R34 the R33's look too much like a 200sx tourer from the front, not that it's a bad thing but not as unique as the 34

Home come you ended up with a 34 not a 33 then Porkie? Yours is a stunner but if you like the 33 more why not have one!?

Good 34's are more than double the price of 33's.... so they are more exclusive and flash

I could have lied I suppose

Also alot newer and therefore ALOT less to go wrong. Mine has FULL service history for example and has been very well looked after. I do LOVE the look of my one... but without the Nismo kit I think 34's look a bit weak. I just like 33 GTR's and they are awesome value now.

nope!

Few better things on R34 like a 6 speed box... nicer interior. It is a better car, but certainly not really double the price better if you are watching the pennies.

They are FAR more bling though and alot cooler I suppose.

32s are smaller than mondeos, no longer than a saff actually IIRC.
Wider tho, due to the big GTR arches.

33s and 34s are noticably longer than 32s

Black one is SOOOOOOO sexy. Its mental spec as well

For sale in Aus I think. About Ł80k I think.

Its perfect apart from from front bumper... it needs the Nismo bumper like mine I think. Much nicer in my opinon. Grill looks sleeker as it follows the line of bonnet with this bumper as well.
