Hi guys,

Sorry if this is a silly question, but although I know what GT-R stands for - Gran Tourismo Racer...was wondering if someone can please tell me what GTS-T stands for?

I've heard rumours it stands for something like, Gran Tourismo Standard Turbo?? Please explain...

Many thanks....

Lastly, are GTS-T Turbo SKylines known for their speed/power?

REgards,

Grad Tourismo Racer hey? I havent heard that before. interesting.

I just figured GTS was the base model and the -t was for the Turbo variant.

The R32 was the only Skyline to get the GTS-t name too I believe as the R33 was the GTS25t and the R34 got GT-t.

im sure its been plugged before but an awesome source for the history an evolution on the line: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Skyline

i never knew that RB stood for 'race bred' i swear i lean so much more on this and other sites than at uni.

Found this but not sure how true it is.........

Engine codes :- RB (Race Bred) 20 (2000cc) D (double (twin) cam) E (electronic fuel injection) T (turbo (TT twin turbo)), so now you know what's a RB26DETT ?, yep you guessed it's very fast ! and lot more money.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
