No such thing as an official 4 door GTR. Any that are labeled as such are AWD conversions with GTR parts. Nothing more nothing less.

Anyone who says anything else is ill-informed.

Incorrect.

LOL.you mean...wagon....stagea...rs260

I like your way of thinking! :rolleyes:

Never heard of Autech, eh?

HPI tested one a few years back- Martin Donnon reckoned you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference in most cases.

Not exactly common though.

Correct.

Autech is kinda like Nismo - they're a factory-certified tuner (just like AMG, HSV, FPV/Tickford, etc.) who do special work for the Nissan factory, anything from the (very rare, but very real) 4-door R33 GT-Rs, to the 260RS Stagea (basically a series 1 RS-Four or series 2 RS-Four S Stagea with extra body strengthening and R33 GT-R running gear), through to modifications for people with disabilities who need wheelchair access to their cars, etc.

I do not if it is the same one, but I know the guy who bought the first one in approx 4 years ago under the compliance rules. It was a write off in japan and came over needing a full front and new roof after it had hit a pole.

Glad we now have SEVS.

There was a copy recently for sale on carsales. It was built by skyline imports and had the pumped rear guards and doors fitted and RB26 running gear. It was originally a non turbo sedan. You can or use to be able to buy the panels from nissan

yeh darrin thats the one, i drove it about a year ago, i had no idea if it was the real thing or not, but i believe it was imported by skyline imports

Yeah I knew of 2 for sale at the same time a while ago, both white. The one that was a write off was instantly recognisable as it had a sunroof...no GTR has a sunroof, I already had a 33 GTR at the time and they tried ti swear it was real and no accident history.

Theres a rb26 conversion in a 4 door gts4 in NSW too, white...the guys was on here a few years ago and came along to a few events...

I'd be surprised if one of the real autechs were here but I guess you never know.

As for importing them, pretty sure it is still legal.....once a chasis and motor have been approved through SEVS you can bring in different combos....so 33 sedan with an rb26 should be legal, as long as the car and engine are standard

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
