Yea looked at both of them and the first one is proper mint, ive seen the second one and although nice is set up for drifting locked diffs and all!!
might see if i can go and look at the first one as you said i can add what i want with the extra , cant belive i was going to pay 4k for a car that looks the part and has all the gear but still needs work. i still like it but will look about a bit more i think

A lot of the bits that are added to the car you posted you can get quite cheap mate, But if it was me i'd go for one thats road worthy for the money? Then things like the hydro handbrake can be added for not a lot of money after if needed?
My R33 RB25DET GTS-T will drift very easy with the 300+ brake it has now and its so easy to get the back end round when you want to? and the control of the car under tail out action is amazing, as it goes where you point it! If you can get the R32 with the rb25det you'll find the extra power a great idea for when you go for the 400+bhp level your after? Big Grin

Think the thing to do mate, is take both models for a drive the r32 and the r33 to see what you think? you might love how the r32 drives and hate the r33 or the other way round? Drive as many as you can as they all drive different, due to mods that have been done? mines at around 310bhp at the fly and 258 at the hubs and does shift :thumbup1:
