Ill post something useable

listen to what this man has to say. A GTR or GTS4 AWD chassis is completely different to a RWD chassis. Which means the crossmember is differnt and the rails are different. This means you'll have to change crossmembers, source front hubs etc and a whole lot of rubbish.

We get offered R32 and R33 GTSt wrecks all the time from guys who stack their cars drifting and accidents... its really not that hard to pick up a repairable shell these days.

Keep it simple, and save yourself the hassles. Sure the GTR look is tough, but is it worth the hassle, when you can get fibreglass guards that achieve the same look on a GTSt for much less effort?

who told you that, the chasis are exactly the the same. he could even use the standard cross member if he wanted to, but it will be alot neater and lighter if he changes it over and he will get more lock for drift. if some of his parts are bent, the replace ment parts are cheap any way. as for gearbox cross member, the one in the wreck will bolt straight in.

I think you'll find they are very mcuh different

the front rails in a 4wd varient car are shaped differently to allow the front half shafts to clear, without slaming into the chasis rails, if you tried to put a gt-r subframe into a gts-t you'll suddenly find the front end a heap higher, and if you stuck the gts-t subframe into the gt-r body itd probnably have its nose on the floor

this is why you NEED to use the 26 mounts to mount another RB vareitn into the gt-r, same goes for a gts-4, stagea etc

rofl... yup, that's why there's 2 different chassis designations from nissan, and a big arse curve in the rails of the AWD versions for the front driveshafts to clear... but you seem to know what you're talking about... so maybe you should try it n tell us how you go :huh:

Drift or sprint or even paddock bashing, its still a waste of time.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
