Hey guys,

ALREADY SEARCHED FOR MY ANSWER ON HERE AND ALSO NS.

I've heard a romour that running my GTS4 in RWD mode (removing the fuse) for drift, Does not run the same as a GTSt and has bad balance??

It's been a dream of mine since i was 14 to learn drift and get to the track. My engine is currently shagged atm, so this may be an opportunity for me to switch to a GTSt drive train while the engine is out....

Anyone have any experienced opinions or guidance they wanna share??? :P

cheers!

Honestly you really didn't search.. did you. There's heaps of info on here.

The short and curlies of it is, when you lock a gtr/gts4 in rear wheel drive, you are still carrying all the weight in the front end of your car.. theoretically upsetting the balance of the vehicle compared to a designed for rear drive vehicle. As well as the vehicle being proportionally heavier.

So.. you can do it, but why not get rid of your car, cos you obviously just want something to thrash, and get a bunky gtst, slap a 25 into it, and go nuts.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
