Honestly, the thing that I'm more concerned about is not the engine but more of what kind of 'driving aids' they're gonna put in this time around. I hope they don't go overboard. Maybe its just me but I really like the way the GTR 32 handles as compare to the GTR33 ( never had a chance to drive a GTR34 to the limit 
) as it feels more like a well sorted out FR..the chasis is a bit more flexy but still nice nevertheless.

read the cars you have listed as you...i offically hate you.
i have heard the R33 is less of a car to the R32 and R34...but then again i have never driven one so i couldn't say that from 1st hand experiance.

barisgas14:Thanks 
Yes, that's the general opinion about the GTR 33 as compared to the rest but I also found that the R33 do have its own special qualities : 1) cabin space: The rear seats space is the biggest out of the lot, infact its bigger than a BMW E36 four door. you could fit two adults comfortably which I can't say about the GTR 32. 2) High speed stability: maybe its the lower CD or the adjustable rear wing, but the R33 seems to be more stable than the R32 at higher speed. 3) Chicks dig R33 more..heeheee
I've only had an opportiunity to drive a GTR 34 around the block and the chasis stiffness is apparent even at such low speed. The steering felt more direct and all this with stock everything. But after tailing a friend in a R34 during a 'sprited' drive up a twisty mountain pass, I found the car to be quiet tail happy. I doubt it was the power as it was fairly stock or the tires ( pontenzas) but it didn't take much to provoke the tail out. I was later told that the driver felt in total control through out the tail out experience which I suspect has something to do with the more advance HICAS system ( no disrespect to my friend's driving ability
) Anyway someday, when I'm financially able to , I would love to own a GTR34 and find out for sure. And at the rate of GTR34s coming in here ( there are more GTR34 as compared to the rest ) I'm sure the price will drop
