Tell us about the GTO driving: how does it compare to a period Skyline or Supra?
Stock vs stock, the R33-GTR is a bit more darty and I always treat it as if it was RWD, where as the GTO's perma-4WD has a slightly softer ride, but lower and a more planted feel on the road. Both cars are easy to launch hard, and have similar straight line performance in their standard form.

My old R32-GTR was less forgiving than my R33, but felt a bit more raw.

I can't comment on the MK4 Supra as missed the boat on getting one of those!

Cheers.

The Supras I drove were effortless hipo cruisers.

Fantastic on high speed highway trips.

R32 in my book is the top of the crop.

Evo are more late 90s / early 00s and rally guns.

Just picked up a minty pulsar GTIR as a toy. Dump valve noises alone are worth it.

I see there’s a bid by a ‘2manycars’ for that NSX.

It's listed at £10K ATM, I'm doing some improvments and fixes over the next month.

Well noticed
She is running a very conservative 668 bhp at only 1.4 bar, nothing that hasn't been done to her to be fair, really reliable build.

NSX is een true gem and a delight compared to Italian cousins.

RX7 is a hidden gem: light on its feet and special.

I found the Evo6 in 335 ps guise a riot as it was. Double the power must be madness.

Please keep em coming. Cheers!

Mod list too long to post and wheels are no longer white but gunmetal. Genuine Rays CV Pro.

Owned it 10 years and currently going through a full underside nut and bolt followed by a full respray. Really fun to drive fast once setup and a timeless design.
