r33 or r34 rb25det(read)

[MOB240]

so i looked on jazzproparts.com and found the r33 rb25det for $2695 and the r34 rb25det for $2995. would it be worth it to get the sII rb25det?

[Joe]

R34 and series 2 are different

the R33 RB25 had a S1 and S2. if you can get a R34 RB25 for only a couple hundred more, do it. it will at the least guarantee a newer engine.

[MOB240]

ooops lol i thought they were the same! the r34 rb25 is the same as the r33 rb25 just newer though right? other than that theres really no difference?

[Joe]

no, there are differences

search and ye shall find.

[MOB240]

alright i guess i could do that lol. kinda off topic but how did you get into drifting?

[Joe]

i had been autocrossing for a couple years before i ever even considered drifting. thought it was retarded (still is ) till i went for a ride with a good buddy and realized how much skill it actually takes to do well. told myself i have to learn how to do it. and its been downhill since then lol. you could kinda say i just fell into it. i never wanted to take it seriously but that has kinda fell down the toilet.

put it this way, when i started drifting i thought i was going to keep my car a street car.

...yea...the most its been on the street in the last year and a half is from the track to the gas station lol.

if your interested in learning, let me know. I (along with a good buddy) organize events in AZ, and we are instructors for NASA (other drift events in AZ)

im very interested in learning how to drift!!but first i need to enough power to break those tires loose and an lsd lol...but for sure i would like to learn!

[Joe]

gah you dont need ****

our intermediate class has been won by a guy in an AUTOMATIC, open diff, convertable.

you can have the most prepared car in the world and still not have the slightest idea what you are doing out there.

there is no replacement for seat time.

[midnightsliding]

welded diff, bucket seat, coil overs rocked out with the set up for like 2 years having no power makes you learn.

[Joe]

thats the best start but you dont NEED any of it.

The r34 is often referred to as the NEO rb25, that may help you in your searches.There are a few significant differences between a r34 neo rb25 and r33 s1 or s2 rb25.

[blurrbosi]

R33 S1 & S2:

S1- Ext. Ignitor on motor

S2- The ignitor is internal, the car came with diff interior and some exterior trim options as well.
