Hi, im looking at buying a 4 door r32, and one poped up in the auctuons in japan today, but its a gts4.

I was planing on drifting the car i get and i know you can pull a fuse and have instant rwd, but does this hurt anything? is it safe to do?

Also, do normal r32 gts-t coilovers bolt straight up?

thx for your help :happy:

i was told that no one has approvals for 32 sedans under sevs at the moment , i asked on here to confirm but no one replied . if you find out who does please please let me know

gts4s and gtrs generally dont drift well because of the extra weight at the front of the car , do a search on +gtr +drift and you will find quite a few threads . sure it can be done , but a gtst will be much better

It may seem like a good idea to have a choice of 4WD and RWD, but the fact is, the GTS-4 has very similar weight to the GTR with much less power.

In comparison to getting a GTS-t, you will get less power at the wheels due to the bigger gear box. 10-20rwkw is about right, probably in the higher range. You have an extra ~150kg over the front wheels. Along with not being able to run as much castor due to drive shaft angles gives poor turn in, extra weight gives poor mid corner. Only upside is traction on corner exit, and that's only good if you're having trouble getting it to the ground with 2WD. And since it's got an RB20, not an RB26, chances are it's not gonna be running heaps of power.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
