u 100% sure about that Warpspeed?, cos i would be VERY interested to track down a R34 AWD Turbo.

cheers.

waiting for u to pop ur head up in this thread Joe :)

oh EJ6, Pva_Glue (Joe) had (still has??) a R33 GTS-4. I agree with Joe, i think for a GTS-4 to be Turbo, it has happened AFTER coming out of the factory.

cheers.

So that pic is an R33 GTS-4? I'm not understanding that..

There is such a beast?

I've been asking the guy I'm buying it from exactly what it is, and he is telling me that there was an R33 GTS-T with AWD in japan.

I really hope my engine is from the stagea though, that would be cool.

EDIT: and this last picture you just posted pva_glue, what is that?

Basically an AWD RB25DET with attessa? :confused:

I found this page on a good search. http://www.jbskyline.net/R33/Sedans/

Now what is the GTS25t?

Anyways, heres a quote from that site.

just like the R32, the R33 sedans came in rear- and all-wheel-drive forms, with 4-speed automatic and 5-speed manual trans-missions available.

:confused: Confused even more now.

I guess the only real way to figure shit out is to live in Japan.....

Hi Joe, you finally sold it ! I am still looking for a manual R33 GTS-4, but they are very scarce indeed.

Not sure about your comment on the GTS-4 drivetrain being not as strong as the GTR drivetrain. There are only two differences the clutch, and the n/a cars have only four stud wheel hubs.

If there are any other differences please elaborate, because I have researched this quite thoroughly, and it is exactly why I want a manual car myself.

Yea that's what I would have figured. Which isn't a real big deal because I can have put my own in there and lower the compression..

Anyways, I asked the guy what the engine code is (near the alternator) and he told me it says RB25DET..

Do they say that exactly down there?

>Nameless EJ6: I can understand your confusion man, that turbo RB25 probably WAS taken out of a GTS-4...

Check the second car down on this site...

It was a GTS-4, but now the owner proudly hails that it's a "GTS-4t", or a mini GT-R. He had a turbo and manifold from a RB25DET bolted on to his RB25DE.

So, there were no GTS-4t's officially, the owners modified their GTS-4's to turbo spec.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
