EVILTD Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 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?

_8OO5TED_ Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 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.

Turbo Dave Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 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.
