...hehe.. mikGTR - but many people don't thats the thing.. i'm always getting people ask if mine is a GTR just because they don't know there is actually such thing as a GTS-T.

anyway, a lot of people like to associate themselves with something they can't have or afford.. its just the way marketing is these days.

as its been said, dont try and make something it aint...Ts and Rs are totally different cars, in my opinion

the problem is that some commo hero in his clubsport is gonna race some wanna b R, get bitch slapped in the race and that commo driver is gonna go back to his wife and kids and say "hey love, i raced a GTR and beat him"

cos he wouldnt know the difference between the two

have respect for the person that forked out the extra ~$30k on a more refined car

personally, if i owned an R id be might pissed off, much like that tuesday morning down princess

me gtst

some tosser infront of me ina GTR badged/three spoke GTSt

a behind me was a R33 GTR

stopped at the lights, i look over at the GTR owner and smile and point at the tosser in the GTSt with a the GTR badge

he laughed, i laughed, that GTSt boy left in shame

most gts-t unless they're bog stock can own most things on the road even if they only have got the one poor turbo :P most don't bother anymore, they don't like knowing a 20k car with most of the same options, looks, and power as their 50k-70k car exists.

well I won't go in specifics, but its obvious who the "type" of gtr badged t owners are but if they're happy doing that then let them be. They never drive fast anyway.

Overall however, i agree with what wardest said

haha yeah it looks similar to GTR Badge

seen them sell at rice shops including the GTR badge

i want a gtst badge for my boot

like the gold/silver one that you find on 4door lines

i dun have anything to clarify that it is a T at the back

    • The title should have posted "EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26" I can seem to edit thr title on my Android.
    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
