Obviously R35. Even though all the other models are still insane and overrated, the sound, the power is just R35's territory. R35 NISMO is the only nissan that can take on supercars
Interesting to see that with exception of the r35, the r33 looked to be the only true standard vehicle. R32 and r34 both had aftermarket hard intake piping kits and filters which hints at higher boost levels, after market exhaust systems and after market slotted rotors so most likely up rated pads too. Hard to find standard vehicles though, so still a great test. R33 is my favourite.
R33 was a slump year for the GT-R in terms of notoriety, no racing series outside of Japan allowed and no big budget movie presenting it to a budding import culture
Mat killed me when he said, “If you wanna buy a GTR or any performance car…. You might need to sell your current car” *Proceeds to sell a black fiesta*
Congratulations! You might just make enough to buy some genuine gtr clocks! What you want for the whole car? That'll set you back both kidneys, the deed to your home and also probably your mother and or sister.

R32 no doubt. Once i was waiting at a bus stop and then i saw it. The spooling of the turbo as it came and the incredible sound as it passed by. What a beautiful car.
I used to hate R32 looks on pictures, but then I saw one in person and bought it. Is so beutifull in person. Same as R34, it looks huge on video, but is s very small car just a litgle longer that the 32.
R32 is my favorite. I remember being 14 years old and seeing a completely blacked-out R32 scream by. It looked and sounded so evil, so different to the domestic muscle cars here in the states. I just fell in love.
Hold your horses Matt, this is not "every gen of GTR", it's every gen of AWD GTR. There is also the Hakosuka GTR and the Kenmeri GTR, also the R31 GTS-R probably deserves mention.
@@peanutboys1 it doesn't matter what you "general car person" think. There's facts and there is BS. Don't expect us to play mental gymnastics to suit a bad mistake pal
I watched the GTRs destroy Bathurst 1000 in 1992 live at the track and up on the mountain. That was the last time before they banned them. Was an awesome weekend. The drive back over the Blue Mountains was little spirited in my Nissan EXA Turbo lol.
I was once in a 600hp Nissan R35 GTR & it felt like we were traveling into the future/about to start flying , complete tunnel vision & it just felt completely unnatural 🤣🔥😐
@@busybee6889 nah , my eyes are fine . R32 , then r33 then r34 , of the skylines , leaving the r35 out as it isn't a skyline , some of the older models are nice to . But nah I think there's odd about the r34 styling
Yesssss these are the type of videos I love!!! All the GTRs are iconic but the R34 and R35 are something special 😍 I'd love to see a video with the Silvias 🔥
Love them all but my favourite one is r33 because it was the first car to do under 8 minute laptime in nurburgring and its the coolest looking gtr. Its pretty underrated.
Should do a Z generation video, the car that saved Nissan from bankruptcy twice (due to sales from 240z and z32 in the US). Z32 was also a technological showcase in the 90's.
In term of looks, R34 is just too perfect to see especially in bayside blue, i can just sit down and stare at it for a whole day while doing nothing. But yeah R35 is a whole another level, its a game changer
When I was younger, the r34 was my favorite. Back before I knew about the older ones. It was my favorite for the same reason everyone else loved it. Fast and the furious, midnight club, and need for speed. Then I learned about the r32 gtr and fell in love. Smaller, more machine then tech, and obviously cheaper. If I had the money, I'd buy the r32 gtr, but because I'm a middle class American I bought the Sti.
I was SO torn between getting a 32 and a 35...I love them both but they're so different and they have such distinct pros and cons that it was really hard. Ended up getting a GORGEOUS single owner 35...2016 Premium, FBO, flex fuel, bigger turbos...the works. I love the hell out of it!!
It's crazy to think that these 2 cars are in the same price range these days. What's even more crazy is reading old forum posts when people were swapping their R34s for Honda S2000.
@@DontStayMusic Yea, the 32 has gone up QUITE a bit. They're still a lot cheaper than a nice 35, though. That's one of the pros for the 32. I still can't believe how expensive 34s are!!
Everything you said Matt was on point except for the "Centre Differential". GTRs don't have a centre diff, they just have a transfer case and is very similar to a 4x4 setup. They rely on clutch plates to shift power to the front. Its a very RWD based awd setup. Technically speaking on paper its 4x4 and not a AWD. If you do a clutch plate mod on the trasnfer case, youll notice when doing a sharp turn, the front wheels skip (kinda like a welded diff) as the rotation speed of the wheels are different from the front to back.
@@hasiyajp Hashita san, Karin Asaka, Emma Verde, Mia Taylor, Shioriko Mifune, Ayumu Uehara, and Lanzhu Zhong all also love those GTRs. Me too love GTR as well, especially GTR NISMO '14, which can be obtained by getting gold medal in final challenge of SIERRA TIME RALLY.
I have owned my r32 gtr for about 13 yes and I would never sell it I bought it when they were still relatively cheap it's probably worth 7-8 times now what I originally paid for it
Standard r32 gtr with the boost restrictor removed have done 12 sec 1/4 mile They need a good bit of revs to be launched they are laggy until about 4.5k rpm
@@alangordon2511 Yeah that’s the thing with older turbo cars they need to spoil up.My 2009 tts was the same.Got a S5 4.2 V8 now and the power is instant not having any turbos
Nissan GT-R is one of my favourite car forever! It's unique, sporty and cool looking design with the amazing performance of the V6 engine is absolutely insane! The R35 is my favourite model! I love the Nissan GT-R!
All 2 door R32 skylines have those rear taillights, the different tailights you showed were for the 4 door saloon. Most noticable body panel differences is the rear boxed guards, front fenders and bonnet/grill, along with the GTR body kit.
Who else got old Fast & Furious vibes at 15:38? In my opinion, this is the best gen car line up ever, all of those gens was able to be one of the fastest in acceleration and at Nürburgring at the time of it's release. 100% worthy of it's nickname, Godzilla 🔥🔥
R32 has more victories than any of the chassis. By far the most decorated GTR ever made and raced. Less fat. Less unnecessary crap. Pure function. Pure form. Long live the true king of the GTRs.
What i don't like about the R35 is that it's basically a supercar, dressed as an everyday coupe, while all the previous generations were normal sedans turned into street rockets. There is some charm to that. Building such a weapon from ground up isn't as challenging as turning an everyday sedan into a monster, but the biggest downside to the R35 - it never got a manual transmission, like its predecessors. It's stupidly fast, no 2 words about that, but the most magical feeling of driving the R34 is when you get e perfect shift in and out of corners. Any real driver who enjoys driving above all else - above lap times and shifting times, anyone knows that manual IS WAAAAAAY better than auto. A much richer, fuller and more satisfying experience.
Worked for Abbey Motorsport for a few years, and have driven 32, 33, and 34's extensively. The BNR32 is the "best" of the AWD GT-R's in my opinion, felt visceral, age defying, great place to be - real pure JDM feel, clunky almost. BCNR33 always seemed to have the nicest gearchange but felt huge on the road, BNR34 great to look at in iconic Bayside Blue, but ruined by that awful Getrag truck-gearbox, and the '35 I don't even acknowledge.
@@richardferretti8208 what? he said he acknowledges the 34 GTR which is on average far more expensive than average R35 used prices, at least where I'm from. So I doubt he dislikes them because of the high price point. I own an R33 GTR and an S2000 and could have purchased an R35 with some cash left over, but I also dislike them due to auto transmission, too many electronics, and V6. I want a raw, manual, inline 6 turbo car. It's all about the experience and preferences and not the price.
@@eriksantoso1741 yes. Really, Erik Santoso. Judging on the front end of R36GT-R and performance specs its true that the R36 is slightly worse than RUF BTR2.
My R33 GTR Vspec in virtually standard tune did a 12.99 at Santa Pod. You really have to launch these cars hard, like at 7000 rpm to get a decent launch or they bog down hard.

@@alangordon2511 yeah in the video he got a very great start. I got a r33, never used on drag but is seen people always missing their first gear so the car was not doing this time.
Soft spot always for the 32 - got to be between that and the 35 for having the most advanced technology at the time of build compared to the rest of the market!
As an Australian who grew up during the Group A era the R32 "Godzilla" GTR will always be special to me, watching them dominate the Sierra's, BMW's and Commodores in the Australian Touring Car series was fantastic. Beautiful, beautiful cars.
@ 15:00 R32 did 0-60mph in 7.2 sec and 15.55 1/4 mile @ 15:58 R33 did 0-60mph in 6.63 and 15.01 1/4 mile @ 16:25 R34 did 0-60mph in 6.89 and 15.26 1/4 mile Man these poor old GT-R clearly have very very tired engines and are in desperate need for an engine overhaul.
I'm pretty sure that experienced driver would do at least 6s with R32 GTR. It's really all about your driving skills, also matt didn't want to abuse these cars.
No mate, he's driving them like a pussy, probably because he doesn't own them and doesn't want to damage them. You have to literally dump the clutch at 7000 to launch one correctly.
Sorry Matt, you’re off on that R32 taillight bit at around 1:10. Those are just the difference between the coupe and sedan R32s (source, I owned a non-GTR R32 coupe)
I had a 96 GTS4 when living in Japan for three years. It wasn’t a GT-R but still pretty quick. The looks of that generation will always be my favorite.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You most look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
And yet, the quickest and fastest GTR in the world right now is an R32. The Australian built street driven car called JUN II built by Croydon Racing Developments did a 6.37 second quarter mile at 224mph. Read that again. It is now the quickest and fastest GTR in any category, in the world.
People forget that these cars are incredibly heavy for what they are. Between the all-wheel drive system, the 4-wheel steering, the interior electronics, that adds a lot of weight!
@@betterbeavailable Chill lol I'm just saying It's not a fair comparison between the four cars.. the r34 can do sub 5 seconds 0-60 and of course he must be better than me at lanching cars.. but who am I? he's the car jounalist

Having driven a 400hp R33 GT-R and a 485hp R35 on the track, I found the R35 to be a great car, but much more boring and poor in feel. The interesting test would be R32/R33/34 600hp vs R35.
The Skylines are about style and determination. The R35 GTR is all about power. I’ve been with the same company for 22 years (I’m almost 42) and I’m sitting on a nice bonus that’s able to allow me to own a dream car and make me one of the happiest men alive. I’m stuck on which route to take; get an R34 GTR for nostalgia of my youth( I graduated high school in 1999, so a 1999 GTR is obvious) or go all out and get a R35 GTR and just roll with the time
The R35 was 10 years ahead of its competition. Look at its modern competitors, most of them have AWD, 3.8 twin turbo engine and dual clutch transmission.
R32, R33, R34, R35... Which is your favourite GT-R?
All 4 generations are absolutely insane! But my favourite one is the R35 because it was made in the same year I was born! I'm feeling proud of that!

I own an R33 GTR and an S2000 and could have purchased an R35 with some cash left over, but I also dislike them due to auto transmission, too many electronics, and V6. I want a raw, manual, inline 6 turbo car. It's all about the experience and preferences and not the price.
This Was Definitely An Amazing Day For Matt 😂 He Got To Drive Every GTR 😭❤
What an evolutionary car ....I loved my R33.....wish I kept it now 😳😳🙏
U may, but it costs $80000.
Nooooo never sell your GTR
The original GTR still my favourite which the Hakosuka 2000GTR pgc10/KPGC10 and Kenmeri Kpgc110 2000GTR.
All I want is all of them in my garage! What a BEAUTIFUL collection!!!!!
Probably the r35, my dream car for gods sake!
You probably a 12 year old no cap🧢
Wonder what the R36 will be like, if it ever gets made. Hopefully it'll be a hybrid rather than fully electric for one more generation
R36GT-R is worse than even RUF BTR2.
@@purwantiallan5089 really ? Did you time traveller ?
@@purwantiallan5089 bro a time traveller 💀
@@purwantiallan5089 oh wow look everyone we’ve got a time traveller here 😂😂
@@eriksantoso1741 yes. Really, Erik Santoso. Judging on the front end of R36GT-R and performance specs its true that the R36 is slightly worse than RUF BTR2.
I am pretty sure that the older gens could have done better with a decent launch.
My R33 GTR Vspec in virtually standard tune did a 12.99 at Santa Pod. You really have to launch these cars hard, like at 7000 rpm to get a decent launch or they bog down hard.
Much better there has been r32 gtr with the boost restrictor removed doing 12 sec 1/4 mile times
@@alangordon2511 you not doing 12 sec with a stock r32 thats for sure. Its basically a r35 time. You need at least 450hp or even more to do that.
@@samuelalcena4526 one of my friends has done it with his car all it had was a aftermarket exhaust and running 1 bar of boost restrictor removed did a 12 sec 1/4 mile
It's fairly common for them to run 12 secs have a look at the gtroc forum etc there even a r33 gtr running standard turbos that has done 11 secs
th-cam.com/video/aLl1OGOzZro/w-d-xo.html
@@alangordon2511 yeah in the video he got a very great start. I got a r33, never used on drag but is seen people always missing their first gear so the car was not doing this time.
That display on the R-34 was made by Polyphony Digital if I am no mistaken - the creators of the Gran Turismo franchise.
Nope, that was the R35's.
@@TheStigHCE09 R35 came out way later than PD was involved with Nissan.
as ever the problem with testing older cars is the tyres, old/cheaper rubber makes a massive difference
Matt has listened to us all! We have all asked for this, and here it is! Now we need a video of: C36, C43 generations, C32, C55 and c63 generations.
Pretty boring video outside of the c32, c55 and C63.
Soft spot always for the 32 - got to be between that and the 35 for having the most advanced technology at the time of build compared to the rest of the market!
R32 lovers here! ❤️❤️🥵
Very good video!!! Try to film some Mitsubishi Evo's as well 👏👏
R34 would be my pick. But can we give props to the camera work in this video. Those drone pilots did a good job!
As an Australian who grew up during the Group A era the R32 "Godzilla" GTR will always be special to me, watching them dominate the Sierra's, BMW's and Commodores in the Australian Touring Car series was fantastic. Beautiful, beautiful cars.
I definitely think that a 7 or 8spd dct would really help the r35 a lot
@ 15:00 R32 did 0-60mph in 7.2 sec and 15.55 1/4 mile
@ 15:58 R33 did 0-60mph in 6.63 and 15.01 1/4 mile
@ 16:25 R34 did 0-60mph in 6.89 and 15.26 1/4 mile
Man these poor old GT-R clearly have very very tired engines and are in desperate need for an engine overhaul.
I'm pretty sure that experienced driver would do at least 6s with R32 GTR. It's really all about your driving skills, also matt didn't want to abuse these cars.
I'd say they are quicker than that but it's easy to tell how gentle matt is pulling away as sure the owners won't be happy possibly damaging clutches
@@zazaaz900979 Nekiosk, the GTR R34 Vspec can accelerate faster than even Tesla Roadster car.
If you heard, Matt said that he was doing an easy launch to not hurt the clutches. Just a slow roll off the line, not a clutch dump
No mate, he's driving them like a pussy, probably because he doesn't own them and doesn't want to damage them. You have to literally dump the clutch at 7000 to launch one correctly.
Sorry Matt, you’re off on that R32 taillight bit at around 1:10. Those are just the difference between the coupe and sedan R32s (source, I owned a non-GTR R32 coupe)
I had a 96 GTS4 when living in Japan for three years. It wasn’t a GT-R but still pretty quick. The looks of that generation will always be my favorite.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You most look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
Sure! Is a better way to counter this foreseen inflation, because all this wars everywhere are politics.
Living in one's "comfort zone" is a contributing cause to the plight of young people.
Fear is a total failure when you give up Ambitiousness; and Success is a game of dice, you throw your $coin while your investment decides your goal.
@@samiraabubakar2963 they said when you invest little money you earn big,
Can't even imagine how it is possible
And yet, the quickest and fastest GTR in the world right now is an R32. The Australian built street driven car called JUN II built by Croydon Racing Developments did a 6.37 second quarter mile at 224mph.
Read that again. It is now the quickest and fastest GTR in any category, in the world.
And?
I seriously dont care which one is faster or more comfortable I would still rather the r33
The right opinion
What about Skyline GT-R of 1969?? It was the first! 😍
The Stagea Autech 260RS will forever be my favorite cuz its basically a wagon GTR
Always strange the R35 gets compared to them when they're Skylines and the R35 isn't.
Sick lineup though.
In some ways even the R35 is a skyline, since elements of the FM chasis made up both the 350Z and the future Infiniti cars
can we all agree that matt sucks at launching manual cars?
6.89 to 60 in aR34 GTR WTF!!
he said he wasn't going to launch because it would hurt the clutch
@@tear728 I know but still doesn't seem fair to use launch control in the R35 making it look twics as fast
People forget that these cars are incredibly heavy for what they are. Between the all-wheel drive system, the 4-wheel steering, the interior electronics, that adds a lot of weight!
You must be new. I think Matt has a bit more experience in launching any car than you'll ever have.
@@betterbeavailable Chill lol
I'm just saying It's not a fair comparison between the four cars.. the r34 can do sub 5 seconds 0-60
and of course he must be better than me at lanching cars.. but who am I? he's the car jounalist
6500 rpm, and let that clutch out quick. You will gain 3 seconds in the 0-60 times in each the R32, R33, and R34
3 seconds faster? No
Great Review & Video is better than more other videos.
R32 was and always will be the real Godzilla. What a beautiful machine
I came to TH-cam to learn how to trade after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $460.000 in 2 months for $70.000. Somehow this video has helped me light on some things. But I'm confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas

Having driven a 400hp R33 GT-R and a 485hp R35 on the track, I found the R35 to be a great car, but much more boring and poor in feel.
The interesting test would be R32/R33/34 600hp vs R35.
Yep. But what about a drag race test between all eras of Corvette cars?
Yes. Drove a R35 on track too : it's a clock breaker, but in terms of feel and pleasure behind the wheel, that's not a fantastic car.
@@purwantiallan5089 why tf would we want to see a corvette line up? Erm.. hellooo… gtr32,33 and 34 here!
Despite the economic downturn, I'm so happy 😊.I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $7,000 investment every 13days.
I can't believe it☺️ , I just bought a House after I invested $ 5000 and I now make $ 31,500 every 14 days . It's been a life changing experience🤗
R32 really grew on me.
The retro look, THE SOUND, the legend.
The Skylines are about style and determination. The R35 GTR is all about power. I’ve been with the same company for 22 years (I’m almost 42) and I’m sitting on a nice bonus that’s able to allow me to own a dream car and make me one of the happiest men alive. I’m stuck on which route to take; get an R34 GTR for nostalgia of my youth( I graduated high school in 1999, so a 1999 GTR is obvious) or go all out and get a R35 GTR and just roll with the time
The R 32 sounds amazing🔥🔥🔥
It's the BAAADDest video about this car 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Thank you very much Matt. This made my day!
I still refuse to accept that the R35 is not a Skyline!
The R35 was 10 years ahead of its competition. Look at its modern competitors, most of them have AWD, 3.8 twin turbo engine and dual clutch transmission.
Yup it was killing Porsches back then.
I needed this vid, also do a drag race of them all
R34 all around for me, but that R32 sound never gets old
Please do it Lend rover defender 90 VS Suzuki jimny VS tayota Lend cruiser prado, I always watch your videos, you are the best, I am a subscriber
The R38 with the 5.6 V6 and two speed powerglide is my favourite.
Some people see R32, R33, R34 and R35, others see Gran Turismo 1, Gran Turismo 2, Gran Turismo 3 and Gran Turismo 4
The race we've all been waiting for...👍
