Hey

Can anyone tell me the difference between a R33 GTS-T 1996 series 2 and R33 GTS-4 1996 series 2.

I know the gts4 is 4WD Turbo (and so it handles like a gtr) if it has GTR 4WD transmission.

Also price differences etc. (r they cheaper for eg?). also if u wanna convert to rwd how much, pros, cons etc. .

the one im interested in is a RB25det conversion and is a 2door- and asking price is 11g's. advice plz

Cheers

If you really want to go through a conversion to RWD, you'd be better off saving yourself the trouble and looking at GTS-Ts' rather than GTS-4s'.

You'd be able to pick up a decent S2 GTST for maybe 14-17k

sorry for not directly answering your questions by the way.

Thats correct. Only R32 GTS-4's came in a turbo version. R33 GTS-4's only came in non-turbo, so if you find one, it has had an engine swap. Engine would have come from a Stagea most likely as a GTST RB25 wouldn't fit due to the front diff. The whole sump is shaped differently.

It may also be an RB25DE + t which you should look out for. If it is a non-turbo engine with a turbo wacked on, you will be very restricted with mods mainly due to the higher compression ratio.

also with the r33 gts4 if you put a conversion switch in them they arent constant 2wd all of a sudden they will switch back on something to do with the front driveshaft but with the r32 gts4 its all good i just swiych on 2wd and its stays on untill i turn it off

Not quite right mate..

With the 33 and 34 4wd systems, there is always a certain amount of preload on the transfer case, so turning off the computer doesn't remove all the mechanical link. Therefore if you throw a 33 or 34 on a 2wd dyno and only pull the fuse and expect it to be ok, you will most likely toast your transfer case clutch pack.

It doesn't all of a sudden come back on...

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?

      Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
