Mine is obviously a GT-R wannabe but thats the way it arrived on these shores. Genuine R wing, 400R front, skirts and rear spats. It came in with a GT-R badge on the front. Luckily nothing on the back. The first thing I did B4 starting it up was rip off that badge on the front. The GTST is a great car in its own right. There is no need to shame it and yourself coz a "T", no matter what is done to it, can always be distinguished from an "R"

lol denham... thats just sad.

as for the GTR badge ifbred on the front.. thats fair enough... but this one has a GTR badge on the back... its the whole pretending to be something ur not... i dont know... imo its the gheyest thing u could ever do.

If it ain't an R, don't go out and make the effort to pretend it is.

Rs and Ts are brilliant cars in their own right and they should stay seperated.

If yr car landed or you bought the car with the badges, fair enuf I guess, but don't go out there and deliberately put R badges on the car thinking that it'll put you higher in the food chain. If anything, it'll drop you.

This scenario is the same as ppl who put the M badge on their 318is pretending to be an M3. It sickens me.

The worst defacing I saw was M3 Motorsport rims on a Honda Accord....

If you want rice, take a cooking class ;)

    • My car is also flex tuned. It's worth mentioning it (the LS1 ECU) has a 1D table for E85 addition and just uses the ethanol stoich part as the second point of reference. It also as a 3D timing map for Ethanol adjustment. You would think this isn't enough but it works pretty damn well. That said, I wouldn't want it in turbo application. It's like lifting non-natty, or taking meth. It gets you unrealistic results that break down more things going forward. If people used it to make the same amount of power they do on 98 then it'd be one thing. But people use it, crank it up to eleventy million PSI, it doesn't knock - but it pushes the point of failure to another, more expensive thing to break. Every time I see someone make 280kw on 98 and 350kw on E85 on the same equipment I just cry a bit and really wish they would just stay on 98 in that exact scenario. It's bad for you. 
    • This is kind of what I was thinking but the temp sender wire and the two pressure switch wires run through the starter subharnes and I eliminated the two pressure switch wires completely.  @GTSBoy I have a can gauge with unusually bright warnings should the oil pressure fall so the factory light isn't needed. I need to dig out my wiring diagram and see if I can sort this out.
    • It's a valid point. And it is doable with the Nistune. But I'm not inclined to flex it the way Nistune does - certainly not on a Neo ECU. They're already pernickety enough to tune just one one fuel. And of course, I'm not that interested in putting in a Link or similar, on a daily. With the stock ECU, stock looking turbo, etc etc, I still stand a chance of surviving a run-in with the plod. Last time it went over the pits (which was for the transplant, for because of a run-in with the plod), the Nistuned ECU did not even raise an eyebrow. They want to see a stock ECU running the engine, and they are happy to see it do so without the check engine light** on. Never mind that the Nistune is necessary to make the stock ECU work in a different chassis without ABS, TCS, etc. **And they actually provoke the CEL to come on by disconnecting the AFM, to prove that the globe hasn't been pulled!
    • This is why you flex fuel it...
    • That is what I took from it too. Needed to go AWD S14 imo.
