From what I know, the GTt and GT coilovers should be the same. GTR's different. So if you've got a GT and can only find GTt coilovers, they should be fine. Even four door and two door, they should be the same if they're both GT/GTt. If you've got a GT4, either four door or two, you should get GTR coilovers.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

Edit: Don't listen to what I just said. It's wrong... :)

So u guys reckon GTT using the same shock/ coilover as GTR 33/34?

Im new to R34 GTT sedan

They will fit, but they won't "work". With close to 200 kgs more weight over the front wheels R33/34GTR front spring and damper rates are just not suitable for a 2WD. Then you have the rear, a 2 door coupe is hardly the same as a 4 door sedan.

Cheers

coilovers for gtt's are different to the gt's. the fronts will fit ok but the rears require different length. If you cant find set of coilovers for the gt, maybe speak to SydneyKid about an altenative setup

lol sorry I just read that SydneyKid said similar thing

The R33/34 and Stagea S1 and S2 rear shocks are all the same length as are S14 and S15 Silvias.

The R34GT has bushes at the lower mount on the rear shock like R33GTST and S1 Stagea autos

The R34GTT has a fork the lower mount on the rear shock like R33/34GTR, S2 Stagea manuals and 260RS

Cheers

What about the 4-Door, Can some one sum it all up...

IE.

R34 GT-* (2 Door) =

R34 GT-* (4 Door) =

R34 GT-t, GTR Ect. (2-Door) =

R34 GT-t, GT-X (4-Door) =

I Guess the Q I'm asking is are the 2 & 4 Doors the same; also are there any differences between RWD and AWD?

The R34 GTT 2 dr & 4 dr has the same suspension setup. However for the R34GT (Na) they uses a different one probably a R33Gts type for the rear only. The reason is one of our mates has the GT NA and he has to get a different type than the GTT.

R34 GT (2 Door) = Eye Eye

R34 GT (4 Door) = Eye Eye

R34 GT-t (2-Door) = Eye Fork

R34 GT-t (4-Door) = Eye Fork

R34GTS4 (2 door) = Eye Eye

R34GTS4 (4 door) = Eye Eye

R34GTR (2 door) = Eye Fork

The spring and damper rates are different for 2 doors and 4 doors, as they should be.

The 4wd's have shorter front shocks to fit the driveshafts in.

Cheers

Im looking at getting coilovers for my r34 GT (2 door, non turbo).

So following this information, the GT-T coilovers wont work.

Does anybody know where abouts i can get some to suit a GT, as i only seem to be able to find them for the turbo model.

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
