R32 Gtr Vs S15 Jap Spec Vs R34 Gtt

[Howie]

I was talking standard turbos on both cars. Both cars will make similar power but the S15 is almost 250kg lighter.

By the same token you'll have to swap the injectors, the intercooler and need a powerfc to get that power figure on the SR20.

You'd almost get that sort of power from an R34 GTT just by upping the boost and leaving the rest alone. Leeman clocked just over 200rwkw with just a Greddy Boost Controller at 12psi on stock everything.

In White will look much nicer...

White looks great on them

From what i have read and from what i have driven, the R34 GTT is the pick from the S15 however if someone has the $$$ an GTR will be the ultimate.

Have you driven a GTR yet?

You can go spastic on them or just a few nice bits, eg;

spastic;

forged rods

forged pistons

head baffles

sump baffles

jun/n1 oil pump

n1 water pump

044 fuel pump

600cc injectors

nismo FPR

new turbo/s (easy $2500 there)

twin/triple plate clutch

gearset (when you smash the stocker)

better radiator

better FMIC

new ECU

exhaust

headwork, cams + cam gears

=a fair bit and a SHITload of power (easy 350awkw)

few nice bits;

new ECU

exhaust

EBC at 15 psi

clutch (if you like launching)

=not much at all, that on mine did 262 rwkw so it went fast enough to get around - dont forget with awd you get all the power to the ground

Good luck with it all

im about to buy a 34 GTT... but pushing 15psi through the stocko cooler is abit risky isnt it. for turbo and engine lol.

Hey Guys,

As most of you knew, I owned an R33 S2 GTSt with 200rw/kw for quite a few years and now almost 6 months driving a 2005 Pulsar Q I’m itching for a new power toy.

Basically I would LOVE an R34 GTR however its way out of my budget ($23,000) and so I have been test driving the following:

R32 GTR

Pros: Twin Turbo + 4WD + Excellent handling + Cheap (under $20,000)

Cons: 15 yr old + Most in poor condition + will need lots of $$$ for restoration (paint, interior .etc.)

S15 Jap Spec

Pros: New (current) shape + gorgeous interior + light weight + SR20DET (easier and cheaper to mod then RB's)

Cons: RWD (traction issues) + needs big work for big power

R34 GTT

Pros: New shape + Nice interior + Easy to get big power + Excellent handling

Cons: RWD (traction issues) + Heavy

I personally love the look of the the S15 and the R32 GTR but love the drive of the R34 GTT...

My question:

In regards to value for money and response to performance mods, which of these three cars should I go for?

NOTE: This will be a weekend car ONLY

Please feel free to comment

Valid comparison although to say s15 has a gorgeous interior and GTT has nice interior is probably the wrong way round if not overstating both.

I like the s15's looks on the outside but since a worked SR20 sounds like pus I have to have an RB.

The costs in keeping the GTR running and modded are high.

I am biased towards the GTT since I have one although I did this same comparo when I bought it, albiet with a larger amount of money involved.
