He does like the Rx7s but worries about their reliability (sp), and he uses his as an everyday car.
He\'s more than happy with his Skyline and has spent quiet a bit on it getting it sorted out. Can keep up with me now.... almost :p

Everyone on here seems to knock the R32... I like them.

If I didn\'t have the FD I would have an R32.. (would like an R34 but they are a bit pricey!)

I prefer the R33. Especially the GTR VSpec.
 
But, of course, I prefer the rex over these!

i have got both an FD and an R32 and have to say the R32 is an amazing machine  :god

Remember this car was out back in 1989, for the amount of car in that day and age it is definately WOW  :mmmm

Totally agree as I\'m as lucky as you and have both. Two examples of completely different approach\'s to achieve similar goals, both IMHO great experiences to drive because of their different strengths

The skylines sheer brute vs Rx7\'s handling; - the RX7 just wants to go round the corner and is ready for the next but the skyline isnt as good so it employs computers to help it do the job.
The RX7 is MUCH more focussed as a sports car, the Skyline is more of a powerful road car as standard, that would have to go on a serious diet to achieve the cornering speeds of an FD3 from the factory :flamed  :p

Thanks Sam. They are 18" wheels, not sure of the offset but i think the fronts are +35 (?). Tires are 235 on the front and 265 on the rear. The fronts do catch the arches slightly so i\'m having to get them massaged out a little
