Question Pondering to sell 2.5TT Soarer for a R33

I just finished driving the R32 and man, that car feels TIGHT! It handles great and has the power to boot also.

But the 2.5TT Soarer is definately more comfortable. Unfortunately it feel HEAVY when driven.

ARGH, decisions decisions...

What would you guys do?

Simple,

Let me buy the 2.5TT. Really, do you have some pics of both cars? Is the TT legal? with a title? Whats the going price for both cars?

Why would you want to sell the SoarerTT??

Which model Skyline did you drive? GTS-t? GTR? If it was the GTS-t then don't bother selling the Soarer for the Skyline. The Soarer has more power, a better engine, and looks a LOT classier than a Skyline.

I drove the GTS-t, but what i was considering is the GTR. The GTS-t is WAY cheaper than the Soarer, i'll post pics up soon.

Default well...

If it was a R32 GTR then I would go the GTR... If it was any form of GTS-T then I wouldnt touch it at all. The soarer is faster than the GTS-T, and with a couple of bolt on mods it blows it away.

If your Soarer feels sluggish... Slap an exhaust and pod filter in it and test it again. If it still feels sluggish, check that your throttle cable isnt loose (I see this alot when tuneing soarers) and when you tighten it up it transforms the car heaps (starts boosting at 2100 rpms.) The 2.5TT soarer should not feel sluggish. It shouldnt even feel heavy. It's got more torque than a 5.0L V8...

If you have any enquiries about tuning it at home, shoot me an email. Soarer_GT@hotmail.com

Toan.

Default get both

That was my plan. I'm going to drop in the 2jz-gte and 6 spd this spring after I sell my truck when it stops snowing here in Erie. I saw snow flakes last night, ick. THan as soon as I finish school in may and start in HR wherever I am ordering a R32 GTR in dark blue. I am going to full cage it and run around 700 hp to the wheels eventually. It will be one mean car and then have the SC300 for crusing/daily driving. Now just to get the money.

I've had a passenger ride in a R33 GTR and it's an awesome car.
Never driven a soarer so I can't really tell you anything about which car is better.
