Great feed back Alistair, thank you That explains a lot I have always liked the GTR32 and GTR34, the 33 always looked a bit bloated compared to the other two. I also like dark colours like TH1 which is Midnight Blue Pearl but i think only the 32 came in that colour. Fast and Furious bought them fame to a new generation but they were already popular because of GTR32 Godzilla winning Bathurst in 1991 and 1992. In 1993 the Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC) rules were changed to exclude four-wheel drive turbocharged cars and keep the Bogan Holden and Ford fans happy,

You wont find an unmodified one in NZ anymore, they have been robbed for bits for the drifting fraternity -or modified to circa 1000hp (yes that is right) or exported to the UK for a large profit.

Yes unfortunately most here have been modified, I much prefer them as they came out of the factory and probably much nicer to drive. I had a Nissan Silvia Convertible that got 153KW on the dyno so a bit more than stock and still nice to drive, but no nicer than when I first got it, I just found when I had to rebuild the engine it was hard to get stock parts so ended up with a slightly bigger turbo. My son has gone crazy on his Nissan Silvia and it got 594KW on the dyno - yes about 800bhp. But it is boring below the limit to drive so he drives it once a week to keep it turned over and occasionally when he can afford it take it to a track. He takes it gently because he doesn't want to break anything but it was funny to watch it against a Tesla S, the Tesla S took off faster and was nearly 100 metres ahead before the Silvia got moving but then my son's car caught up and flew past. The Tesla S wanted another go but had to wait a few hours to recharge using the diesel generator he bought along. Probably not the most environmentally friendly way to charge a Tesla but there are no charging stations near the track. The other stupid thing is the closest petrol station with E85 was 150km from the track so all the high powered cars including my sons bought a few jerry cans with them.
