Your all time favorite R chassis

So with the new addition to the forums, I figured this would be a good way to break the ice for everyone.

I'm sure I already know the answer to this question....


What is your favorite R chassis?

Why?


Reminder: These are opinions. This is not an area for bashing each other for liking "the most stupid skyline ever made"

Fell in love with the r33 when I first saw it in a magazine back in the late 90s. Wanted one ever since.
But lately, I've been really wanting a r32 sedan.

Came for the r34 (like every other f&f fanboy), stayed for the r32. However I do have a soft spot for r33s in race trim, I think there are few cars out of Japan that looked this good on the track. My windshield banner is a tribute to this car in particular

R33 because the JGTC R33's were the best looking of them all.


I love the R33 for the boat that it is. It's my favorite black sheep.

Now that I'm in a more stable financial situation(making 25k more yearly than last year. Looking at another 25k bump in about another year), I'm seriously considering getting a r33 when they finally hit state side.

The R34 is it for me. I found the S-chassis due to looking up info on the R34.


My dream build is an R34 GTR Vspec II Nur with a built RB30

dream R chassis? the 500HP nismo r34 GTR! but Id have to sell body parts to get that car xD or win the lotto

I personally love R32's, something about them and their track history that I really love! way back when they killed it on the circuits.. that's when the altezza system really set the car apart from its competition!

R33 is my favorite, the smooth body style that just flows. I feel like the R33 improved upon the R32's looks then the R34 just got a bunch of hard edges that kill it for me.

I personally like the R32 the most, with the R34 a close second. A few bullet points why are below. Mostly my opinion though, lol.

R32:
- I prefer the body lines. It's a great looking car.
- It's the OG Godzilla, the car that made the legend for the 2.6 TT AWD monsters from Japan.
- It's a lot more affordable and obtainable than newer variants.
- It's a very raw mechanical driving experience vs the newer cars

R34:
- Front end is awesome aesthetically.
- Much better suspension design and chassis than previous gens.
- If going for a pure race car, better than the R32 hands down. Debatable against R35, but I'd prefer it over the R35 any day.
- All the bugs from the previous two generations were fixed (for the most part), and it's an iconic car.

Just cashed in on the Volkswagen "Dieselgate" scandal and picked up a GTS-4 from Japanese Classics, good guys, would buy another from them. Glad to see there is a R chassis sub now.

(not sure if I did the photo correctly lol)

I remember like most of us have. Seen the r34 in fast and furious, I fell in love with the car as a kid, just to find out years later that there is more before the r34. Found all and ended up liking the r33 the most. I got myself one now.
