Summation of this thread: GTS-Ts suck, go for GTR

coming from a guy with a MR-S

Are you sure you weren't suppose to put an "a" instead on an "i" in your username; log off buddy, you'll stop embarrassing yourself :)

As i said i wouldn't sell my Gtst for a GTR. That's not to say that, if i had the money and space i wouldn't have both :)

lol cos a 600hp turbo doesn't make 400rwkw's, it's like a can of baked beans doesn't have lollypops in it, it just doesn't. and 350rwkw's is a pretty low power figure these days, pretty much every modified new v8 out there is making more than that....

anyway ontopic, if you are tossing up between a gtt and a gtr it really depends what you want it for. you do much track work with the car or is it only street driven? If the cars only street driven I wouldn't really say it's worth the extra money. Although they do look so much better :) I find driving a high powered rwd car on the street is much more fun than the gtr, gtr's are awesome when your going fast but on the street you don't go fast so meh, I have more fun on the street hanging it out round corners and generally making a menace of myself in a super happy fun rwd car over going insanley fast.....which is really what gtr's are about :)

Yeah, but they are hauling almost 2 tonne of body. Still alot of power in my books; nothing to make a name with though.

thats why they are ghey and I still beat them :) Still I like the whole v8 in an rx7 idea :no: to make a name these days you need over 1000 at the treads I reckon....

and cubes, 1 better, I own a commodore :) it's awesome....so much power.....even in the wet it's hard to get sideways these days :)

lolololol I like it when people take the bait.

The R32/R33/R34 is an old car.

Old car means problems of wear and tear etc.

If you were willing to take the burden of dealing with these problems, why not get the also old GTR? It would cost nearly the same in maintenance.

Let's say you have 20K to buy a Skyline. You could buy a R33 GTS-t or a R32 GTR. Performance wise, which would you go for?

Let's say you have 30K to buy a Skyline. You could buy a R34 GT-T or a R33 GTR. Performance wise, which would you go for?

Didn't you aready run a 12.5 in your GTT? so your car is already quicker than an R34 GTR?

Don't waste money on a GTT, go straight for the GTR, but fark a r34, go a r32 GTR. The prices they are going for at the moment is just insane, $25k will get you a very nicely modded 32 GTR no worries. $40k will get you an animal race built r32 GTR.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
